    I completed Max 30 earlier this year. Just as I got used to month 1, month 2 game along- and that's a whole differant ballgame! Just keep pushing through, even if it feels as though you're not making any progress. You'll be surprised at how easy the last cardio challenge will be!
    No-one, and I mean no-one, does cardio like Shaun T!

    day 1 done today. I just finished p90x3 otherwise I might have started the same day
    I completed Max 30 earlier this year and am currently finishing block 1 of x3. How would you review x3 as a whole and were you satisfied with the results?

    I did it just starting out. I loved it and it pushed me. I feel like some combo of insanity and p90x is ideal since some cardio isn't the best in p90x but I like weight training. plus for me 90 days of Tony is too much with his banter. I started with the nutrition guidelines and it failed me the first half then switched to MyFitnessPal recommendations with adding in the exercise and lost 15 pounds the second half. I just was happy to do pushups and see improvements there more than my body changed but I'll do it again.

    Not my first time. I used to do Insanity in a class setting and was training to be a sub teacher for it when I lost that job I ordered and did max 30. That was 1 1/2 years ago though. I was injured a few months ago as I was wrapping up month 1 and now that I'm medically cleared I'm starting over.

    Nothing has ever given me the body and fitness level that Insanity did. I'm pumped to be back at it.

    .....and now I need a shower lol

    Hey guys,
    I'll be starting the Insanity max 30 (as soon as I get it in the post) and I'm already very excited!! Hopefully I can start next week, so that I'll be finishing the program around halloween (anniversery time).
    So I know its a bit early to write, but was (in my anticipation to get the program) searching for people whith whom I can do it/ support each other.

    Did you guys set specific goals, to keep motivated? Any tips?

    You can friend me if you like. I'll be doing max 30 in about 2 weeks or so. Doing Insanity right now :-) i also have friends who are doing Max 30 and will also be starting it again as soon as I start so perhaps we can have our group for motivation and support! I'm also very excited to start Max30. Read the other day that some women have lost 10 lbs in 3 week. I'll put that to the test

    Good luck to you! I'm currently on month 2, finishing week 2. For me I did p90x3 and went right into this. So this is my second workout since having 2 kids so I just try to extend my Max out time and do the modifier a little less when I've had to do the modifier. Just do what you can, the program is designed where you are supposed to go really hard and hit a point of I can't do anymore. Be ready because month 2 especially slams your shoulders. My workout yesterday was half of just pushups and triceps. When I finish this, my husband and I will switch weeks of p90x3 and insanity max 30 until we complete p90x3 again and get closer to goal weight then focus on going hard on strength training.

    OP how is it going ? Did you finish month 2? Keep at it, almost wedding time. Max 30 is my favorite and staple.

    I'm starting week 4 of month 1. I'm also modified due to knee injuries but had done the program before. I just did cardio challenge and feel great

    I'm on week 3. Did Tabata Power today. Didn't really max out but wasn't as powerful as I'd like to be. I can't wait to get it again on Thursday. I've promised myself to be more sharp, have better range of motion, and give it better effort.

    Hi, I have been using this program from the beginning, almost two years now. I love it. LOVE. The longest I have gone without using Max 30 is 4 days and I blamed that on New Orleans but it was my fault, lol.
    Friday Fight 2 was today and is my favorite, followed by Max Out Sweat.
    Stay with it all the way through, you already made it 6 weeks :) Excellent!

    It was as much of a beast as any other week. On to week 8. I kinda don't want to give it up though. I may do another round!
