Is anyone else doing Insanity? It's a new workout from Beachbody. I did the fit test yesterday and I'm starting the 60 days today.

    My husband just bought it for me on Monday. Can't wait for it to arrive! How is it. I have the demo plyo-cardio one they sent out a few months back and have done it a few times (it definately is INSANE!). I have done 2 rounds of P90x and am currently doing Chalean Extreme. I think Insanity is going to be very difficult!
    Let us know what you think of the exercises!

    Hey Kim,
    I have just done the fit test and it was insane! It was 8 different exercises that you do for a minute each. You do the fit test every 2 weeks and track your progress. I'm starting today!! :bigsmile:

    areay22...Good luck! I am so looking forward to starting. How is the nutrition book? I really like P90x's and was hoping this one would be good too. Thanks!

    What day is everyone on? I am so excited to start! Hopefully it will arrive this week!!! How are you guys finding the nutrition book? Is anyone working out early in the morning with this program? I usually do my workouts at 5:00am but am worried that this program will be too difficult to do that early (with no food or anything)

    I have done my workouts in the evening. I don't think I could do some of them in the morning, especially without food. I run and spin still in the mornings (some swimming) and do this in the evenings.

    I finished on Sept 20th, and am now doing an Insanity/P90X hybrid. I love the program! My endurance is through the roof!

    I finished my 60 days of Insanity as well!! Loved it! I lost those last stubborn 8 pounds and over 10" from my body!! As sandy said, it helped my endurance too! Let me or Sandy know if you have any questions!

    Thank you! During Month 1, I added Insanity Upper Body Weight Training + some pullups two times a week. Month 2's workouts were intense & long enough, so I dropped the weights. I also do at least 30 minutes of yoga every day.
