  • There is NO WAY that is accurate....at least for me. It says I am like 23% body fat...LOL UM NO!
  • for me MFP calorie burn is WAY TOO HIGH! I am 5'1" tall and 112 lbs so it is way high because I am not "average". You should invest in a good HRM that you can program to YOUR body and it will track accurate calorie burn.

  • Insanity is GREAT. Just look at my abs! LOL I lost 15ish pounds and got those abs with 1 1/2 rounds of Insanity (I am currently 1/2 way done with my second round) It is a bit pricy and you may want to do phase 1 twice for sure before you move on to phase 2 if your not already is really good shape but it's amazing!
