    I've had insanity program for a couple weeks but didn't offically start until yesterday. I had to do the fit test a few times to help build myself up to the challenge. My legs and everything were so sore after the first fit test, I needed more time.

    Yesterday I did Plyometric Cardio Circuit, I only had to pause the movie twice because of a side cramp. lol

    Anyways, good luck everyone!

    Hello everyone!

    I'm happy we have a great group of friends to do this with. I measured this am and will be starting the program tomorrow.

    Weight: 150.2 lbs
    Height: 5 7'

    neck : 13 3/4"
    breast: 35"
    under breast: 30"
    waist at belly button: 33.5"
    waist below belly button: 37"
    hips: 41"
    thigh R: 22" thigh L: 22"

    My stats (started 5/28/12)

    Weight 139
    Height 5'4

    R Thigh 20"
    L Thigh 20.5"
    R Arm 12"
    L Arm 12"
    At belly button 37.5"
    2" below belly button 38"
    2" above belly button 35"

    I did the fit test, but some of my numbers are off a bit because I was either counting them wrong or forgot to start counting because I was trying to get the correct form down. Instead of starting over, I gave a guesstimate. Today was Day 3 and it was hard. I was tired and my leg muscles are so sore and tight it was hard to get through, but I did it. I really want that Insanity t-shirt :happy:

    Happy Wednesday everyone!

    Here are my stats:

    Start date: 5/28/12

    Current weight: 120
    Height: 5'1"

    Neck: 12.5"
    Arm: L-10", R-10"
    Chest: 32"
    Waist: 28"
    Above belly button: 30"

    I can't wait to measure myself again after I finish this program!

    Today, I finished Day 3 (Cardio Power & Resistance) and I am feeling sore! I'm so glad tomorrow is Cardio Recovery! The hardest thing for me right now is trying to keep my core tight! It's so hard to keep it tight for the whole workout! How's everyone else doing so far?

    day 9 just completed -___- pure cardio is definitely no joke, I think I cried the first time I did it. This time though I almost kept up with it and it wasn't as bad!! So push through everyone :D

    I've only done two days so far, and I am sooooo sore! My back hurts all up and down, but I think the stretches help. Tonight is Cardio Power and Resistance, and I'm nervous about making it through. Already looking forward to Cardio Recovery tomorrow, haha.

    I did "INSANITY" Plyometric Cardio Circuit & Cardio Power and Resistance today because I was not happy with my results. I burned 884 calories between the two. Keep pressing play ppl!!!

    Today, I finished Day 4 (Cardio Recovery)! So I'm not really good at balancing myself. =P I kept falling out but it's ok. Hopefully I'll do better next week! I'm a little nervous for tomorrow's workout (Pure Cardio) but excited to do it as well!

    Hope everyone had a great workout today! Glad tomorrow is Friday!

    I would love to start it with you, I did it a few months ago and then just got so busy in life I quit, I would love motivation from people going through it because that workout is far from easy lol :) Good luck everyone!

    I just started Insanity two days ago...I haven't had a chance to measure myself but as of right now I am 152lbs and 5'8". My goal is 145, but overall, I want to be toned and just feel good.
    I hope you people are right when you say it gets easier!!

    I completed Day 2 yesterday and it kicked my butt!! I have a 5K to run in tomorrow so I am resting today and going to TRY to do Insanity after my run. !!

    Thanks for starting this group, I know I"m going to need some motivation :)

    Hi Everyone, I just completed Day 4 Cardio Recovery! I'll probably do Pure Cardio and Plyo Cardio Circuit tomorrow so that I can be on track with my calendar....or maybe I'll use Sunday as a workout day instead of a rest day.

    DO NOT QUIT, KEEP PRESSING PLAY & DO NOT LET THIS THREAD DIE!!!!!! :smile:

    I was planning on starting on Monday and then I thought why wait? I did the fit test today. It kicked my butt! I felt the workout and loved it even though I couldn't do a single push up and I looked like a frog doing the globe trot.

    I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.

    Hey everyone, my first post on this site, started week 3 of my insanity, but hurt my foot playing beach volleyball so I have to take a week off, but I feel the laziness creeping in to pick it back up, would love to do it with you all for motivation! It kicks your butt, but in a good way, managed to finish every workout daily (albeit in my own time) :) Trying to start back on Monday, foot willing.

    LOL I thought it was just me, The only day I dread more is cardio resistance. People make yoga/balance look so easy, definitely not!
