    I don't know that I will start it tomorrow with you but I know I will be in Sept. 1. I am finishing up 30Day Shred not sure I could handle another exercise video. Good luck with it and I will follow along just to see what you think about it.
  • Hello,
    Congrats to wanting to start INSANITY...I just had my 30-Day Anniversary with INSANITY...and let me tell you. MY body has changed DRAMATICALLY!!!!

    I can now do about 15-20 (boy) push-ups in a row...and I lost 6-8 pounds.
    It is INTENSE..but for me its all worth it for the cool-down.
    Please let me know how things go for you...I believe in this work-out.

    I'm in!!

    I actually just started today with my girlfriend. The Fit test was truly insane. I cannot even imagine what the rest of this is going to be like, but after hearing from people who do it they say it works.

    I am a little down after the fit test cause I was just thinking that I'm not sure if i will be able to do it, but im going to need the support and motivation to keep going with it.

    I couldn't even finish the full 1 min on some of the exercises.

    Good Luck all!!!

    Dont worry if you couldnt finish the full 1 minute, i had to stop every now and then- its about getting your numbers up. So dont worry and focus on the whole raising your numbers! =) im going to make a table on my computer so i can see all my results lined up :)

    Going to attempt day 2 later....anyone done it yet?

    I agree...the fit test was truly insane!! Can't even imagine what the rest of the workout will be like. But I realized how out of shape I am when I struggled to complete the fit test. So bring on the rest of the workout. Hopefully I will have time to take before pictures tonight too!!

    Day 2-- HOLY ****! that was tough. I wasn't able to do the whole thing straight through, but i did the whoel 45 minutes. I almost had to stop at around 20 minutes left, but I pushed through.

    It really does make me realize how out of shape i am. I cant wait till this feels better!

    For everyone new to Insanity don't worry if you are struggling, just do what you can do. Don't give up, it will get easier (at least until Month 2, hahaha!). Enjoy it though, it is so worth it.

    I missed a few days due to hurricane Irene and lack of power, but I picked up where I left off and I wish i didnt miss those days. Felt good to get back into it, but Plyometric Cardio is today WOOO

    I just carried on as if i hadn't missed any - i wish hadnt missed them, hope all is ok with the whole hurricane thing over there! I guess im lucky not to have it here.

    Pure Cardio for me today :) I hate plyo! Lol

    I did Pure Cardio yesterday and it was tough especially since I was getting back into it after missing a few days. But i tried my best.

    Plyo is the longest video aka longest workout...not the one i look forward too

    Welcome summerbikini! =) Keep pushing with it, it will get easier! Just dont make our mistake and stop for a few days!

    I've just finished my first go at pure cardio.....It was tough - it should of been second BUT i missed the first go lol. I enjoyed it though, and after a 'half' attempt at it (i couldnt complete it all i was nackered) i still burn 390 calories. Which makes me see the potential of that video!

    Something tells me, that after i've finished these 60 days.....I'll be going again? Lol

    Today will be Insanity Day 8. Since i missed a few days, i picked up where I left off and since today should be off I am just going right in to week 2. Yesterday was my second go at Plyo and it still is kicking my *kitten*. Its tough, but I feel so good after. I just have to remember to DIG DEEPER cause more i dig the better it will be in the end.

    I need the motivation to go fo that extra one when I feel like i need a break. I also have to remember not to sacrafice form. I cant just think about speed. Cause if Im going fast, but not doing it right, theres no point.

    Hope everyone is doing well.

    PS. If anyone has any good after workout drinks that they take please let me know. I'm looking for a good post-workout supplement

    P90X Results and Recovery Shake, if I work out for longer then 30 minutes I'm drinking it.

    I use a standard protein shake. It works for me at least :)

    Ive done my day 10 tonight, although tech it is day 8 here too. But i missed those workouts and carried on - my time schedule wont allow me to carry on,

    How about we set a challenge? To report back and tell us if you did make that extra one when you felt like you could do more? Lets push it for a week and if we are responsible to each other it may work?
