  • I think it is terribly cruel to start month 2 with the Max Interval Circuit. I was starting to feel confident and then the DVD starts with Shaun T saying, "This is going to kick your butt!" And it did. And does.
  • I have a week and a half left in the program. I LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!! Like one of the other posters, I was running three miles a day and yet the first workout had me panting and gasping. I have been pretty good at staying within my calorie goal and at the halfway point had lost 5 pounds and 3 inches off my love handles. My…
  • I am doing the Sprint in the Northwest on August 4th. I've been doing Insanity and will finish a week or so before the race. I am going to go hunting for the ebook.
  • Good Morning Insane Friends, My question is about (gasp!) missing a workout. Here is the situation: I am finishing the recovery week with my scheduled rest day on Sunday. On Tuesday afternoon I have to go on an overnight business trip and will be home very late Wednesday night. This makes my Wednesday Insanity workout…
  • I agree. I fell on my behind yesterday doing them in the "recovery" week. So far lost about 5 pounds and at least as many inches. Plus I feel so much stronger and, for the first time, feel like I will not make a complete fool of myself in the Spartan Sprint in August. Insanely, I am looking forward to month 2. Feel free to…
  • I am in the middle of the "recovery week" between part one and part two. I insanely love Insanity. It is the hardest workout I've ever done and even the folks in the videos are sweating and panting and gasping. Totally worth it. It frightens me that all the workouts in the second month use the word "max". Feel free to add…
  • I did the couch to 5k program last spring and loved it. I ran in a 4 mile race in December. My race budget is small but I still run locally and on my treadmill. I haven't been running as much lately since my next race is the Spartan Sprint and I've needed to focus on strength training. I can barely manage time to run with…
  • I turned 40 about three weeks ago and it seems like I am having trouble getting those pounds to go. I have two boys, 5 1/2 and 2 1/2 and a full time job. I originally lost 40 pounds with MFP and then gained a bit back. I'd like to lose those darn 12 again and a few more. I am three weeks into the Insanity workout and only…
  • Thank you for your wonderful, insightful post. Like many others, I cried. I have posted pictures of my sons every month on a share site since the first one was born. Always of them doing things and being adorable. I now resolve to include one of me with each one of them every month. From this day forward. Someday they will…
  • Jaws I don't hate the book and have read it numerous times, but it is really different than the movie and gets bogged down in some of the sub-plots.
  • I will be 40 in May and have recently made a triumphant return to running. In, get this, middle school, I was quite the track star and logged an 7:33 mile. Then, life. I now am a WAHM with two boys 5 and 2 so I struggle to squeeze in time to run, but have motivation to run faster. I completed the C25K this summer and am…
  • 1.) How old are your children and how many do you have? (share names if you wish) I have two boys, Ryland almost 5 and Dresden almost 2 -both October birthdays 2.) Will you be planning to have more kids in your future? Not unless my tubes get untied. 3.) How was your pregnancy/delivery? I weighed about 170 when I got…
