Does anyone replace the recovery day videos on Thursday with something else? I get very bored with those. I was thinking about doing pure cardio instead tomorrow.1

I started 4/18/16. So excited to find others that also doing this work out!2

I'm on W2D3 tomorrow! Pure cardio is pure hell, but we're lapping all the people sat on the sofa. I haven't seen any weight loss...is his normal?0

I created a group called Insanity work-out buddies to support all Insanity do-ers lol.0 -
I've done insanity a few times. Every time I stuck to the program. The first few days I started it is was very sore. But I just battled through. Or dug dipper as they say. The results I had were amazing0

Finished week2, day 4. Tomorrow is Cardio Power and Resistance. I'm a little scared of Sat because it will be my first Cardio Abs and almost an hour work out. Guess I better start getting prepared for what's ahead0

During my first round, I only lost a about 4 lbs in 30 days. By the end of month two, I was down 15, had tons of definition and was two dress sizes smaller. You'll see.

I don't enjoy the Cardio Recovery days either @cardertaxidermy. It just doesn't hold my attention and I don't like 'body balance' stuff, although I keep telling myself it's good for my core.
I actually did a Jillian Michaels DVD after it this morning! I suppose i'm missing the point of the recovery element. Once you move on to the 2nd month work outs your legs do need the rest. I found mine did last time anyway.

Yayyyy finally found an insanity group on here! I started March 14 and haven't missed a day yet
Today is day 39 - max recovery for me. Told myself I wouldn't miss a day and I'm trying to keep to that! Good luck everyone 1 -
I am on day 5 and I am loving how sore my body is lol I had been working out for 2 months before this and never felt this insanely tired/sore. Hoping for awesome results!!!2

Cardio Power and Resistance today. I didn't feel like I had much energy this morning. I pushed thru and got sweaty but didn't feel u was up to my full potential. Tomorrow is my first Pure Cardio doing Cardio Abs with it. I believe that is a 55 minute work out. Hopefully I have my energy back by then cause I will probably need it. pure Cardio kicks my butt alone. Hope everyone has a great day. Push Play!!!!!!!0

I know what you mean. I tried insanity before and only made it thru the first week. This time around I had been working and and weight training for 3 months before. I thought it would be easier. Boy was I wrong. I could barely walk the first week.I am on day 5 and I am loving how sore my body is lol I had been working out for 2 months before this and never felt this insanely tired/sore. Hoping for awesome results!!!

I've started insanity several times and also skip the recovery day videos because I get bored. This time my plan is to replace it with yoga.

I think I am going to start replacing it as well. With one of the other videos as long as I'm not sore.0

I alternate Insanity with T25.
But I am thinking of doing Insanity for the next 63 days straight.
What're you guys' First Week Fitness Test Result?0 -
How do you all log your insanity workouts?
I alternate between logging it as Aerobics, and as circuit training, but I don't know which one is more accurate.0 -

Hi Everyone!! I just started my fit test today as well, can I join? I really want to stick to the 60 days. I did the 30 day shred a few years ago and had good results, but I've tried to start it several times since and quit as I get bored. It's my first time starting insanity and I REALLY want to stick to the 60 days! I have a holiday in 2 Weeks and am planning to take the DVD's with me and keep going... Also try and eat as well as I can. I don't have a weight loss goal for the program as I don't know what my body will do, but I have an overall weight loss goal of around 30-35lbs. I've been eating clean since last week and already lost 3lbs so I'm feeling good!
I'm Not gonna lie I'm scared about keeping up with Insanity, but I really want to prove to myself I CAN do this, and I CAN be leaner and fitter.
Here's my fit test results... they are probably rubbish haha!
Switch kicks - 30 -
Power jacks - 29 -
Power knees - 71 -
Power jumps - 6 -
Globe jumps - 8 -
Suicide jumps - 7
Push up jacks - 4
Lower plank oblique - 142 -

Today was my Day 3. So we are in the same page. Lets keep each other motivated. Yay!1 -
I just did the fit test yesterday. I've done some insanity before but this time I'm committing to doing the full program. Feel free to add me 0
-
So glad to see people joining us!!!! I would love for this group to get really active and support each other.
Finished Week 3 day 2 today. I did Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs. What a sweat that worked up. I still have to take a lot of breaks, not sure if that will ever change. Some of those exercises I just can't do for a minute straight. I haven't seen any weight loss yet. Actually I have gained 3 lbs HA. But I did increase calories because I figured I would need the extra energy. I honestly am not really looking to lose weight just tone up but I know I have to get rid of the layer of fat to appear tone.2 -
Just finished day 2 and maaaaaan I can feel it in my legs. I had to take a lot of breaks but I kept jumping in at the beginning of each set and doing as much as I could. Is it normal that the first week is awful and I potentially can't do everything because of sore muscles? Does it get easier after week 1? I'm so excited to be on this journey though. Even though it was SO hard, I just kept feeling all my fat flying around and thinking how I was getting rid of it hahahaha!1

I felt the same as you! lol My calves hurt so much when I started and I couldn't keep up with the workouts but it does get better! I notice my legs aren't as sore and I can almost keep up with them. I'm on week 2.
I also feel like my fat is flying around all the time especially on my legs when im jumping around hahaha2 -
Morning All! Having missed a workout, tweeting my neck and not giving 100% last week, I've decided to restart Week 1. So Day 2 is in the books (again).
