I started month 2 yesterday. I barely was able to finish the workout. Today I couldn't bring myself to do it again.
I am really thinking of stopping even though I got this far. Maybe I should do Chalean X and start Insanity over after that?
I am just feeling like I have to push myself so hard.

Just do it?
Or move on and come back when I am stronger?

    JUST DO IT! DONT QUIT YOU ARE MORE THAN HALF DONE!!! JUST DO AS MUCH AS YOU CAN AND MAYBE REPEAT MONTH 2 WHEN YOU ARE A LITTLE STRONGER. YOUR RESULTS WILL BE SO AMAZING YOU WILL BE GLAD YOU DID.

    Keep pushing through. It is a great workout that produces awesome results. I'm mixing that and P90X2 right now...as much as I hate Insanity, I love it just the same.

    Do it!!! You can get through it... I know how tough it is, but once you're done, the feeling is well worth it!!! You have 3 weeks and 5 days left... that is nothing!!! You got this!!!

    When you think you've hit the wall, back up a few feet and hit it harder and blast through it! You'll do it for sure, and feel freakin' awesome when you realize that you did it! Great that you posted, that's what we are all here for... SUPPORT and MOTIVATION!

    As long as you're not in pain that would require rest or an office visit with your doc just keep going. When I did Insanity, the hardest time I had was the first few days of month 2. Good luck and enjoy your workout tomorrow.

    Thank you all.
    I am going to keep pushing! I have come to far to quit now. I am also really looking forward to some awesome results.

    if it were easy it would be called easy. it's not called insanity because it's easy.

    yes it's hard, but you've gotten through a month of it already. you will not quit now, it's mind over matter.

    YOU WILL DO IT GIRL, AND YOU WILL ROCK IT!

    Month 2 is when the awesome results kick in. It's hard and I'll admit the pounding with the jumping was tough, but I got better and it was totally worth it. Ive gone back and done the first month after completing month 2 and it's cake now. ALthough I do like how there is very little rest time in the first month videos. It seems like Shawn takes more time to show you the moves in the second month (which is a good thing b/c I needed that extra rest). You can do this!!!

    Day 1 of Month 2 is really hard but I say just push yourself. U will notice that the next time u do this workout and the other Month 2 workouts u will be a little better each time at it and it'll be a little more bearable. It's extremely tough...This is where "Insanity" comes from....Month 2, cuz it's def INSANE!! Don't worry about skipping today. Your body prob needed it!! I only do it like 4 days a week and mix it up to give myself a rest. Do what u can and don't beat yourself up if u need to take a day off.

    lol, I was going to post, "eh, switch it up and do somethign else for a while" but after reading all of your posts maybe I'll have to take up insanity too, haha!! I have the videos and do maybe one a week mixed in with 30day shred and running. It's pretty bad *kitten*!

    Don't stop chica!!! Insanity is very Insane but you were able to get thru the first month!!! And that's big!!! Keep going! You'll thank yourself in the end!!! I'm 2 wks away from month #2 with Insanity so I truly understand. If you give up now you'll keep doing that! Stick to it!!! You'll get better in about a week or so!!!
