in Motivation and Support
Have you ever considered doing Insanity, or have you ever started and given up due to a lack of motivation and support? Well, I am starting Insanity (to combine with P90X) and am organizing a challenge and support group of about 5-15 serious and committed people, to not only help me along the way but to to let me help you reach your fitness and health goals.

I've been successfully running fitness challenges here on MFP for the last six months and my current challenge group has lost a combined 600+ pounds and 357+ inches (from approximately 80 people).

If you are interested respond here and I can send you more information.

Greg

    I am very interested, i have had the insanity workout for months and I would try it and then give up because of lack of motivation. Someone made me copies of their DVD so I dont really got a calender or anything else to go by.

    Thanks for all of your interest, I've messaged all of you. So everyone does know, I am looking to keep this group small (5-15 really committed people). It's hard enough to get through something like this, particularly when I'm adding it onto P90X, so I want to make sure that we all can count on each other.

    Thanks! I was nervous as hell when I started P90X in April but it is totally rocking and I am loving it. I want to have the same experience with Insanity, and I know that having a great group of people to support me with P90X is what has helped to keep me going.

    I am planning to start Insanity from Monday (May 21st) , looking at the videos I am little concerned if I can really cope up to that intense workout. I might go a little slow initially.

    I would love to help you meet your fitness and health goals, and would love to have your support as part of my continued journey.

    Thanks to everyone who has responded so far. I've sent everyone more information on the challenge. I already have about 6 people who have committed to this challenge so space is filling quickly. I don't want to pressure anyone, but you need to be willing to commit to the challenge soon to make sure you can get a spot and make sure you can get your copy of Insanity (if you don't already have it).

    Again, let me know if you have any questions.

    I did the first week of Insanity back in March and absolutely loved it. Unfortunately, I gave up due to lack of motivation. Weight has started to slowly creep back up and I need motivation to keep going! I'd love to join :)

    I did it for about a month and then gave up. I am the kind of person that has to be pushed into doing it or so my almost ex trainer says.

    Thanks to everyone who has responded... I've sent everyone the details on the challenge and do still have a few spots open. As you can see there are a number of people who would like to join but I am looking for 5-15 people who are willing to commit themselves to seeing this through. I already have 5 people who've signed up so the spots are filling up.

    If you want to reserve your spot, I need to hear back from you so we can get you into the group and make sure you have what you need to get started on June 1st.

    Thanks again for your interest in joining me for the next 60 days!

    Greg
