  • So far I keep not adding sugar. It's easy now. I'm not even tempted to change that. I had few cheat cookies. But that's it. I think I can do that as it's so natural now. I stopped drinking alcohol as it just doesn't go well with the exercise. My body just not coping well with it anymore. So all social events are alcohol…
  • I'm on week 7 and yesterday I wasn't able to do my recovery as I simply run out of time. But as i did a good workout at the gym I'm not going to feel guilty about that. Today is a hard one as I do legs at the gym and then there is Max Interval Circuit as a follow up cardio. and then it's 6 more workouts for me. I must say…
  • well, my hubby actually laught at me when I argue with Shaun T and call him names but that's ok with me. I don't really care as I do sweat for myself. So you have to think about all the benefits you going to get from doing insanity. And don't give up. It's hard but you just have to push harder. Honestly my weight didn't…
  • you know what I just noticed I'm still following the no added sugar regime. I really like it.
  • Yesterday was start of week 6. Max Cardio Conditioning. It went better than last week so I'm happy with the progress. But I struggle so much with all those planks and push-ups. I added some weight training 4 times a week. And I eat more and more. :D . Went to get some new jeans on Friday and surprise , surprise 2 sizes…
  • that's great news. well done
  • Essex here. feel free to add me
  • I had little holiday from insanity as my in-laws were visiting us and there was no time or energy left for exercise. I was walking at least 8 hours a day so I had a little exercise. And I was trying to eat as clean as possible. So I did Max Cardio conditioning yesterday and it went really good. My muscle are a bit sore…
  • Today was the first day of month 2. OMG I wasn't able to get through it. Maybe because of the lack of rest over the weekend and the fit test before the workout but after about 40 minutes I just wanted to quit. I skipped last few minutes as I was running out of time ( i do the workout before going to work) but I'm not sure…
  • So another weekend and even more trouble. this time not the family but work. As I was working the whole weekend and staying at a hotel. Food provided so didn't have much choice on what I'm going to eat. Tried to avoid added sugars but that wasn't possible. Not so good. Back on track today. I have to say I don't miss all…
  • I'm on recovery week now. And the 2 first weeks I didn't see much difference apart from getting fitter. After week 4 I noticed a big difference. The scales went down as well as measurements. I lost 3 from 8 kg I aim for. Recovery= less cardio but I still burn 350 Kcal per session. And all the exercises are to build…
  • In the UK. Cold. No dog either. 5:50 get up at , get a protein shake, 6:00- work out till 7:00 then I'm at work around 8:30 and have my breakfast. 6:30 back from work and I have my last meal of the day( fifth one) and then or a bike ride or weights. For like a hour. And then I have my me time. to be clear my other half has…
  • I would look on www.bodybuilding.com . you can find there some workout plants with how to videos and nutrition information
  • argos sells it for 99.99 or you can try https://www.wizebuys.co.uk/product.php?xProd=841
  • I started 4 weeks ago. Again. So far lost 6 pounds. another 14 to go. I do insanity workout and high protein diet.
  • I just started the recovery week and feeling nervous already. I just read about level 3 drills=16 push up! OMG
  • I'm not there yet. Just started the recovery week. I must say I feel stronger and can definitely do more press ups. Not sure if i will manage to do 16. i started doing some weights as well this week. My arms and shoulders are so weak I need to do something more for them. So insanity in the morning and weights in the…
  • So I had a slip over the weekend as expected. Just wasn't able to resist. But today is a new day. About replacing the sweets with fruits. Hmm.. they will eat the fruits and then they will demand some cookies. So not sure if that's going to sort out anything. Tried that before.Chocolate is a must. And hiding sweets is a…
  • I agree with the rest of you. HRM is the best option. When I was logging it as other exercise the burnt calories where too high. With the HRM it shows how much I burnt and that all depends on a day (my performance). I have a chest strap which I can connect to my phone and I use MyDigit to track my efforts. It send the data…
  • probably it all depends on the brand but I think it doesn't have any added sugar. I know, it's still chocolate ( a lot of fat) but ... if that's something that makes your day a bit brighter. Maybe just eating less or not every day. for a start. I eat it from time to time as a treat. or bake a banana with chocolate and…
  • well done! good arguments as well. I was tempted the whole day today. I'm not going to give up either.

  • they are all against me! just got an email saying there are cakes in the kitchen (somebody's birthday). please some one tie me down to the chair.
  • for start I would try dried apricots as they are rich in potassium and magnesium. which is similar to dark chocolate but less fat and calories
  • Did well again. No added sugar at all. But must say banana saves me in the morning. I do the routine first thing after i wake up and need to fuel my muscle. Banana- and I can get through it. Even had more energy today= burnt more calories. it's a lot of sugar so maybe someone have a suggestion what i could replace it with.…
  • Yesterday went really well. I planned all the meals in advance so didn't have any trouble avoiding sugar. Done some shopping as well. I'm prepared. Today's lunch is a leftover from yesterday. All good so far. But yesterday was the rest day as i do insanity workout. Probably it will get tougher during the week. Need to…
  • Hi everyone, I'm on week 2. I'm loving it so far. I do it in the morning and I'm SO awake. WOW! good luck you all
  • Hi, I'm Anna. I started insanity on 12th, so it's my second week. I love it so far. I used to be very fit but then bad habits started and what to say I put on weight. I eat healthy most of the time. But the weight just doesn't go down. So i started with small steps like park my bike another 10 minutes away from work etc.…
