INSANITY buddies?

My husband and I started April 9th, we just finished week 4! I have only lost 1 lb but a total of 10 inches! I have a long way to go so I'll be doing more than one round of Insanity! It's hard, just dont get discouraged if you cant keep up.

@Lindy, It is an dvd exercise program. You can do a search for it online or go to the Beach Body website to get more information. It is a 9 week intensive workout that incorporates a lot of jumping, resistance and interval training. I really like it. I actually was pretty sedentary before starting, and this program is quite hard. I'm still not able to come close to keeping up but I just rest and jump back in. My husband is much better and he is doing awesome.

I do Insanity and on my 4th week now. Yeah, its kinda hard, but u just gotta push through. My weight loss kinda like 1lb/week but there's improvement with my belly and little on my arms.

Started yesterday and my mind was blown! Love it! You can all add me

I am on my second week and am so sore I can't walk today. I do love it though! lol Trying my best to stick with it. Add me for support!

I just did the Insanity fit test and been out shopping to get some good foods.

I found the food suggestions really simple and easy for this program, p90x and other programs i've done before seem to have complicated menus or stuff i (as a fussy eater) dont like

Might actually do day 1 tonight when the kids are in bed

you can add me! i haven't started yet but i know i will be here soon. i just would like to get back in the groove of working out again a little more before i start it back up. i found the first time i did it it was REALLY tough bc i wasn't in shape at all before i did it. lol so im tryin to at least build my cardio up before i start.

I just finished my first round of Insanity on Sunday. I'm taking a week off and then will begin a second round. Feel free to add me as a friend

Just finished Month 1 this morning You can add me if you like....you love it! I've got muscles I didn't think I had, went down a pant size, lost 4 lbs and have more endurance during my runs!! Thats after a month!!!

You should give doing them in order a shot! I'm not the most coordinated but by the second time doing the routine I was getting it down pretty good. He focuses on different muscle groups during the week, with one day of pure cardio and one day of cardio recovery to make sure the body is working at full potential. If you notice, even the really fit people in the video are taking breaks! And Shaun T is out of breath a few times too and he's wandering around to the others. This is definitely a tough work out. Go at your pace and take breaks when you have to. Do you have a HR monitor? I found this helps me a lot. I still have to take a LOT of breaks! But I get my rear back up and keep at it once I get my breath back! One other pointer I would offer is to eat enough! I'm in another support group on BB website and if you dont eat enough you are going to start getting really drained and it will make it harder to keep up with the workouts! You are going find you have soooo much energy! Week 3 you can loose a little motivation, but keep feeling how your body is changing for the better and you will be able to push through.

Does anyone know how to calculate insanity calories. i'm so confused. I'm scared in how many calories they want one to eat. I'm use to like 1200 calories. I want to lose weight can anyone help me calculate?

I'm only 4'11 and am eating between 1600 and 2000 calories a day depending on my work out. I've lost 4lbs now and over 12" total in one month. I'm not worried about the weight as much anymore, and 1640 cals would be my goal weight maintenance for little exercise. I dont usually come up short on energy either. I feel really good and have the energy for my workouts and the rest of the day......
