    I have done a couple of rounds of this last year and NEEDED to give my back a REST! Besides being a kick *kitten* workout it is extremely hard on your back! You may see me around, I am in another mileage challenge but may consider getting INSANE till summer arrives! Best wishes chickas!!!

    Oh really? I have a herniated disc in my back.. hmm.. something I guess I will have to consider.. thanks for the heads up.

    I found out a month ago I have a bulged disc so it is no wonder I was seeing a chiro on a weekly basis while doing Insanity. There are soooo many moves where you drop to the floor and do a full body movement and then VERY quickly JUMP back up! They do not call this series INSANE for nothing!!

    Thanks for posting this info I am on day 12 of Insanity and I haven't had any weight loss yet. I wasn't getting discouraged, I can feel myself getting stronger. I was wondering why it wasn't showing on the scale.

    I did Insanity for one day and couldn't walk afterwards for a few days. Did anyone else have that problem?

    insanity is really good cardio but it killed my calves! i had a hard time doing it and teaching my regular fitness classes. i have skipped around reading but what i'd like is to just do the videos a few days a week not every single day. it just doesn't fit with all the other things i have going on. i crash and burn. anybody else doing insanity on a modified schedule?

    Happy916, I feel your pain. Yesterday was my first day and I woke up so SORE today. I did push through and completed Day 2, though.

    Your muscles are just getting used to some of the new moves. That initial pain will pass. Aleve gelcaps will help.

    Starting Week 2 today! I love it however, I'm a little nervous every time I hit the 'play' button... but with Shaun T yelling at me, I push through to the end! LOL

    I have not got my order yet in the mail, but have been doing the fit test from the internet. I did not think that it was going to be that bad, man I was wrong. I also started to drink the shakes by Vi to help.
