  • It's all part of the beachbody.com "brand" along with a few others.
  • Insanity is a completely different program.
  • If you "rest" for those couple of days, it will continue to be hard. You need to push through, even though you're sore. I know it's hard, but the results are worth it. After the first few days of doing it, I felt awesome. Pushing play is the hardest part. Keep going. Don't give up!

Spoon onto a sheet of wax paper. Roll up the contents into hot dog/cigar shape.…
  • DO NOT GIVE UP!!! The first few days are rough, but by week 2, it goes from pain to ecstacy - and it is so worth it! Each day, your body will feel better and better, and each day you will notice new strength, new definition, and new energy! Just stick with it!
