I started insanity 3 days ago, and it is seriously a killer. I safely say i have to pause it about 10 times in order to not die :P anybody else having the same, or different problems or any advice?

    My first time was tonight. I am heavy so I knew it would be hard. I stopped with 9 minutes left and what I could see those were the hardest 9 minutes of the workout. It will be a long haul for me but I will complete this workout.

    Stick with it! I just started my second round on Monday. Do your best every workout, and don't compare yourself to the people in the video.

    I started it on Sunday, and you are not alone it is brutal. A friend of mine just started round 2 and she said it doe NOT get any easier because as you gain cardio endurance and become more fit you are able to push yourself that much harder!

    I just started too, this is my 3rd week and I am on day 3. My Knees are KILLING ME!!! But so far I think its working, My mom says "I've shrunk" but the scale says different.....A lot of people say its because I have gained muscle.....so just pull through! :)

    Just started it over on Monday, so I'm right there with you. I started it the first of the month but got derailed by going out of town to support a family member during a custody hearing that was brutal. I've done some of the workouts online before and from that I can tell you that you will get better. Judge yourself against your own benchmark and you'll see improvement. Hang in there! It is super hard, but I''ll be suffering right alongside you and the results will be worth it!

    I'm almost at an end with my first round. You'll get use to it IF... IF...IF you push yourself. You have to push!!! Good Luck! I'm seeing nice results. Remember diet/nutrition is the main portion of getting fit!

    I am on day 12. And I am feeling it. I really like it . I like to see the people in the video that have to stop and take a break too.

    Im wondering if anyone has a poor mans insanity. I saw the infomercial for it, and it looked awesome. But I definitely can't afford that.

    ps.. Keep going we are both on the same days, I dont think is a good idea to pause it, take the breaks you are given and sip on water, keep moving. Also I stop when i loose form, I work at my own pace so I dont have to stop, and take a break if I need to fix my form, and then keep going.
