Thanks @Cherimoose! It's a tough ride, but I really hope to see progress soon.

You'll probably have a love-hate relationship with insanity. It's a very intense workout that I've had impressive results with. As others suggested, you might need to modify some of the movements so I'd recommend insanity max 30 because there's a modifier. Also I find it more challenging as it focuses on strength more than…

Just finished day 3. It's a good way to destress at work ;)

You're absolutely right, Tal. Just finished month 1 and my jeans are loose now :) I'm thinking of skipping the recovery week and starting month 2 right away. My mom will be visiting next week and I won't have much time to work out, so want to make the most out of this week. Does this sound like a bad idea? How's month 2…

Haha yeah I guess I just like to know how things work :)

Awesome, I'll get in touch! Thanks.

@crzycatlady1 Yeah macros are very confusing :o

Hi Tal. Your results are always impressive! I just finished week 3 and was comparing today's progress photo to my pre-insanity photo, but saw no difference so I overindulged in loads of nuts and peanut butter. But then remembered my reply to Uwatts88 above so picked myself up and did pure cardio & cardio abs (as if they'll…

Hey Uwatts88, Congratulations on getting started! Just press play and take breaks whenever you need them - and don't worry you'll get better and fitter with time. Make sure you eat enough healthy food (don't starve yourself) and don't pay much attention to the scale. You'll probably start seeing results around the 3rd/4th…

All for it :)

So here are my fit test 2 results: Switch Kicks 32 Power Jacks 23 Power Knees 40 Power Jumps 22 Globe Jumps 5 Suicide Jumps 10 Push-Up Jacks 10 (+3 normal pushups - couldn't do more push-up jacks but wanted to keep going) Low Plank Oblique 17 They don't measure up to your results, but are slightly better than my previous…

Hey. Thanks for this! Yeah around 20 kg to lose. My problem is I eat super healthy 2-3 days, then fall off the wagon the next few days, then start eating healthy again and so on. It's mostly out of stress. So here's hoping I can stick to clean eating.

I desperately need motivation! Worked out intensely from Feb to July (CrossFit and so), then traveled and have been struggling with weight gain since. Been doing insanity for 2 weeks now, but my eating habits are fluctuating. I'd eat super healthy for 2-3 days then super crappy for a couple days. So tired of this cycle :(…

Switch Kicks 39 Power Jacks 19 Power Knees 40 Power Jumps 20 Globe Jumps 4 Suicide Jumps 8 Push-Up Jacks 7+2 normal pushups Low Plank Oblique 10/leg Will be doing my week 3 fit test in a couple of days. Have you guys been seeing results? The number on my scale went up (fat percentage too!) for some reason.

Thanks!

Starting week 2 tomorrow. How were your results the first round?

Sorry to hear that. But glad to hear you're good to use free weights. Back problems are a real pain!

20 kgs to go...

Amazing. How did you do it?
