I'm thinking of doing a round two as well but not until mid June or the beginning of July. I'm going to miss this group when it's over.

I've been working out at home for the past couple of month and I always wear my glasses. When I was younger I'd wear contacts to the gym but that was more for weird aesthetic reasons. Now if I started going to the gym again I'd wear my glasses as long as I wasn't doing anything that would make them fall or fly off. For…

Oh no! I really hope you feel better soon. In the mean time you have to do what's best for you.

I'm planning on doing HipHop Abs with my Mom (she couldn't do Insanity because of her knees) as well as some weight training. My dad unearthed a pull up bar we've had this whole time apparently so I'll be using that. Afterwards I will do another round of Insanity with my sister and maybe Asylum after that? I'll have to see.

Just finished the Fit Test and taking a break before the Max Interval Circuit: Switch Kicks: 49/67/83/85 Power Jacks: 18/34/43/49 Power Knees: 40/48/60/70 Power Jumps: 16/17/17/20 Globe Jumps: 6/6/7/6have to work on these... Suicide Jumps: 10/12/11/15 Push-Up Jacks: 0/0/6/12 Low-Plank Oblique: 20/20/23/30 These past two…

We are two weeks away!!! That and the fact that there are others still doing it with me is the reason I haven't stopped. I might have my weak moments but knowing that we will be the few that actually finish is great motivation. Great job guys!

Yes yes yes! It wasn't a walk in the park of course but it was a relief to do. Oh and I notice I sweat more that I used to. I guess that's a good thing?

I agree that this group is also a big part of me not stopping. When I think, ah come on I'll just leave it, I remember that I'm not alone in doing this. Somehow I knew I would feel like this, which is why I joined this group in the first place. And as lack luster as I am on some days (a lot lately) I do want to do the…

I know how you feel. The motivation is lacking a bit. I still make myself do the exercises but I'm battling with my inner demons as well. I'm also curious to know how everyone else is keeping themselves going...

Go you!!! That's great!! :flowerforyou:

I was able to do the workout today! I took a day off because my ankle started hurting mildly but in a bad way. So I took Tuesday as my rest day and will continue working out til sunday so I will catch up by next week. Today was much better. I did the workout in socks and felt more control but it limited me in other ways, I…

I'll gladly add you! I'm 26 years old and looking to lose 7 to 9 kilos. So about 16 to 20 lbs.

When Shaun T says he is going to kick your butt.... Well he wasn't playin'. The length intimidated me and I probably allowed it to get to my head a bit but overall I did well. I can't wait to feel improvement with these new exercises. I look ridiculous trying to do the side suicide jumps and for some reason I can't get the…

Awesome job everyone! I just did the fit test and am taking a short break before starting my Max Interval Circuit. But in the meantime here are my results: Switch kicks: 49 - 67 - 83 (I count individual kicks) Power jacks: 18 - 34 - 43 Power Knees: 40 - 48 - 60 Power Jumps: 16 - 17 - 17 Globe Jumps: 6 - 6 - 7 Suicide…

That's awesome! Great job! Month two is around the corner, I'm sure you'll continue killing it!

We did it guys! We have reached the end of recovery week! I still have to do my final one today but I have improved in all of the control and balance excercises. They aren't all perfect and I still need some help balancing every now and then with the hip flexer pulsing and extending ones but they are all much better than…

Great job! I also enjoyed the new pace but feel that I have to work on control. I haven't taken any measurments lately and the scale has been about the same for a while and gone slightly up this past week but I do feel my clothes fitting more comfortably than before. So, I'm taking that as a win. Also…

Month 2 is looming!! Great job everyone!!! I really don't think I would have kept going if it wasn't for this group so thank you everyone!!! I'm nervous for month 2 but I'm also excited. But first! Recovery Week! Let's keep killing it guys! Or at least shoving it slightly :tongue:

Oh my gosh you're right! Today was the last we'll see of Cardio Power! Well I pushed as hard as I could this time and felt good with my efforts today, more so than yesterday. About month two I am nervous but at the same time I think my body needs something new. So I am looking forward to it with... dread? Bring it on! We…

My University wanted to get rid of readers they used because they were transitioning into "proper" textbooks and online material. So they announced that students had a limited time to visit the library and pick up any copies of readers they were interested in. (I went to a small Uni in Prague). Anyway, I arrived to the…

I don't know if I got too into my head today but I wasn't feeling it this workout. I pushed through but I wasn't as happy with the workout as I usually am. Oh well, tomorrow is another day! :angry: :bigsmile:

I haven't lost much either but I definitely feel stronger and can see changes in my body. I've also heard that it's normal. While people can lose weight doing Insanity it's more about body re-compositioning than anything else.

I've never done Insanity before but isn't recovery week important? I'm just asking because I'm curious about the answer to your question as well. Though I think I will go ahead and do recovery week as planned. But would it be bad to skip it or change it?

Great job! It's probably better not having a scale that way you don't obsess over it. I haven't lost very much at all in weight but I feel different and see a slightly smaller waist. I pushed harder today and really felt it. My favorite part is the feeling after the workouts! Recovery will be a welcome workout tomorrow.

I decided to start a plank challenge and I walked to the corner store (more than a corner away) and walked my dog. Nothing intense I enjoy my rest day.

Great job on finishing week 2! I just finished and I'm not as fond of Pure Cardio but I do feel I've improved. Cardio Abs was a bit of a challenge but I liked it. Looking forward to our second fit test to see if I've improved at least a little. At least I can do some push-ups now! :glasses: :bigsmile:

Mid twenties here : 26. Do I still make the cut?

Great job! I'm looking forward to cardio abs too. We'll see how I feel about that though once I'm actually doing it :ohwell:

Great job on day 8. I just finished it and I also feel so much better after finishing and feel it was worth it. Even if I am suffering during.
