  • I think that before an obese person should be "labeled" as disabled, that individual must have a complete medical history to prove that he/she is obese due to medical reasons. Just because someone became obese due to pure laziness, eating junk food, and not working out, this is not a disability. Although being obese could…
  • I LOVE Zumba. I've been doing it on and off since April (doing other workouts now), but I'm started to go back to doing Zumba 3-4 times a week. It's a lot of fun, very intimidating at first if you are rhythemless, but if you stick with it you will get the moves down. When that was my only workout I was doing, I was losing…
  • I am definately in. I love planks but will work on holding the plank form for 1-2 minutes a day
  • Just beautiful and well written. This makes me change my mind about running in my neighborhood. I sometimes take my dog for a jog and will stop and walk when I see a car coming or people walking, then start jogging again when the coast is clear.
  • I did each level for 10 days straight with a day off in between each level. I love how she pushes you but she can get annoying. I just zone her out sometimes. By the time I got to day 6 or 7 in each level, I just wanted to quit because I would find myself getting bored. I had to tell myself that I can do this and that I'll…
  • Drink plenty of water and have a protein shake after your workout. The more time you workout and build your muscles, they will eventually not hurt anymore. Personally, I like being sore a couple days after working out. It makes me feel like I got a really good workout in.
  • My sister taught this to me when she was in the military. You use a normal deck of cards, hearts=squats, spades=pushups, diamonds=dips, and clubs=lunges, or whatever excercise you choose each suit to represent. Then if you pull a 5 of spades, you do 5 pushups. It was fun when my sister and I used to do this. Have fun and…
  • I use pure whey ($20 @ Target) chocolate flavor. It is 140 cal I think and 25g of protein. I add a scoop to almond milk, or you can use any type of milk, and mix it for a choc milk type of drink. Lately I've been making protein shakes with almond milk, choc whey protein, peanut butter and a banana.
  • It's amazing how the little things can have such a positive effect on people. I know with me, the scale doesn't go down much and I'm used to not relying on the scale either. I know I've lost inches because, like you, I am noticing veins on my hands and arms, knuckle bones, hip bones, and I'm noticing more of a shape to my…
  • bump:drinker:
  • Insanity definately pushes you to dig deeper and challange yourself. I'm in my 2nd month this week and I do the program with about 5 others I work with and we are all different shapes. We will point out that someone is not squating right, or their butt is in the air while doing pushups. We all look out for each other to…
  • I have a Sportline HRM watch that I bought at Walmart for $30. It works great, easy to use, and doesn't get in the way.
  • I was doing Zumba 4 times a week and really focused on what I was eating and I lost 1lb a week for 2 months. Then I started doing more strength training workouts and saw inches lost but not the numbers on the scale. I'm going to start incorporating both Zumba (2x a week) and Insanity (2-4x a week). I love to dance too and…
  • Emo kids or boys in skinny jeans. Men need to be manly, not girly. all reality shows, especailly the Kardashians uggs/crocs beiber needs to go older women dressing and acting like they're in their 20's fake tans, fake hair, fake eyelashes, fake nails, and anything else women do to themselves that's fake...be yourself butt…
  • I bought my HRM at Walmart for $30 and it works great. I have the watch one and it's so easy to use. In regards to the chest strap, I've heard mixed reviews, so that's why I didn't get the chest strap. Also, there are 3 other coworks I workout with and we all have the same cheap HRM and none of us have any issues.
  • I had a packet of instant oatmeal and added 1 tsp of nutella. Less than 200 cal
  • I've learned to judge my loss by measurements and not so much the scale. I try to measure once a week or every other week. It also depends on why type of excersise I'm doing. When I did the 30 Day Shred, I took measurements every 10 days. Now I'm doing Insanity and I'm taking measurements every week. It helps me to keep…
  • I bought my HRM from Walmart, $30 Sportsline and it works great. I just started the Max section of Insanity (month 2) this week. The first month, I burned 650+ cal each DVD, and within my current month, I'm burning 800-950 so far. I'm 34, 5'1" and 155lb. The more you weight and the older you are, the more I hear you're…
  • I have a bag of semi-sweet choc chips in the freezer. When I want some choc, I'll grab a few of those. I also have choc whey protein and I'll mix some with milk too to help my choc addiction.
  • I don't think I'd use ply wood only because of splinters you could get doing the push ups, planks and all the other moves where you touch the floor. Do you know the type of "mat" or "flooring" people get for their office chair if their desk in on carpet to help their chair move? I'm sure Office Max or Staples might have…
  • If you're like me, my stomach is the last thing to go. It's slowly shrinking, but it has taken me longer to see more of a loss in my abs then anywhere else on my body. I lost inches with the 30 DS and loved it. I also incorporate more cardio, like Zumba and Hip Hop Abs to my weekly workouts to add more cardio since that…
  • My stomach has looked like it's shrinking on the sides too, kind of like I'm losing my belly from the outsides and it's working it's way to the middle of my stomach. One thing I remember hearing on one of my workout tapes, and this was about 5+ years ago, is that when you do any type of ab workouts, pull your stomach in…
  • Born in Phoenix, Arizona. Moved to Pennsylvania when I was 1 yrs old, then moved back the Phoenix when I was 10. Still living here in Phoenix.
  • My coworkers and I have been doing this since July 1st, and we just started month 2 this past Monday. We do the workout at work, so I sometimes am able to do Insanity 2-4 times a week. We all LOVE it and sweat our butts off. It's intense and addicting. Once this month is over, we've decided to go through the 2 month…
  • As of now, I'm sore on my shoulders, chest, bicepts, tricepts, upper back, obliques, slightly in the abs, and the area under the butt cheeks and inner thigh area. All this soreness is from doing Insanity Max Recovery yesterday, mainly the planks sections and the ballet squat section.
  • She made her own sweatsuit. I would never do that, just so I could sweat more? I'd be afraid of heat exhaustion or dehydration. That sounds very dangerous.
  • either google it or youtube it. It's definetly insane but awesome.
