Started month 2 of Insanity this week. With the fit test, i was happy to see I got better in each exercise. I've only done 2 of the Max workouts, and now I am starting to feel some slight pain in the knees--so I will have to see if I can keep up 6 days a week Insanity. Hope so!

I've just finished month 1. So far I have only shed a couple pounds, but arms, legs, abs and butt are noticeably more toned. I feel more fit over all. I'm nervous for month two, but also ready to get these muscles to burn a lot of fat--which is why I started Insanity. I want to reduce body fat. Shuan T is motivating, and…

I totally agree. Sometimes the warmup is the toughest part---but if I can just push myself through that, I do pretty well with the rest of the video (still taking a short break here and there).

Thanks for serving our country, and glad to hear you are on the path to recovery and better health. Sometimes I workout with MSGs and struggle to keep up (but they are great motivation). Sounds like you have a really good plan in place. You just need time to let it work itself out.

My favorite healthy snacks are : low-fat yogurt almonds (raw) carrots fruit Quaker Oat chewy, or Nature Valley granola bars (but I don't feel like they fill me up) I also drink TONS of green tea through out the day. If I could, I'd eat all day, so drinking some tea helps me get through the day

I'm in week four of Insanity and I totally agree with jeremyw1977...just go for it ,and take breaks when your form starts to falter. Keep water and towel nearby. You will need it! Have fun!!

I just rinse in the hotel sink and dry in the shower. I try to bring 2 outfits which will get me through about 4 workouts. The clothes are easy part: it's the bulky running shoes that take up half the suitcase!

I am always bloated the week before. It sucks, but then it goes away. For me, i try to exercise through it, and I then feel a lot better in a couple days. And treat myself to a little dark chocolate or red wine :)

I have heard that month two gets better with the weight lost. I feel like my legs and rear are bulking up though---granted, they look better- but my pants are still tight! that's the frustrating part.
