  • I'm on day 23 right now! Loving this program and already seeing definition!
  • I'm not too annoyed with anybody but i just can't get enough of the guy in the back and the faces he makes!! I don't know his name but he has these looks while he is working out and it's just like I feel like WHY AM I DOING THIS? IT HURTS LIKE HELL! lol KEEP GOING!
  • Second month is KILLER!! my body was exhausted after 3 days and I had to take a break and reassess my eating habits plus add vitamins and recovery drink after workout. BUT I have been sick since Friday and haven't done Insanity since Saturday :( I plan to start on Thursday so I give my body good rest before I get going.…
  • After month 1 I had about the same results as you...lost about 2 pounds and maybe 2 inches total. I took before & after pictures and can tell a difference but other than that, not much. Most of my measurements are the same. Check out my profile for the picture because I have no idea how to add them to this post! :) I've…
  • Fantastic! You're working really hard and you can so tell!
  • Awesome! I just started month two today!
  • You will definitely gain strength and endurance during month one. My last day of month 1 is tomorrow and I haven't lost any weight and the only inches I've lost are around my chest (2 inches) and .5-1 in my waist. I'm looking forward to month two because I heard most of the results come during month 2 for some reason. The…
  • awesome job!! Do you have P90x too? I plan to do the Hybrid p90/Insanity when I'm finished but I'm only on week 4.
  • ahh this scares me!! I'm loving the first month and I'm about to start Week 4! Pretty close to starting month 2-now I heard it was hard but not THIS hard! yikes!
  • I was pumped to do my first round of Pure Cardio but the disc was missing from my work gym! So upset but still got a good 30 minute treadmill work out in! My suggestion for those w/calve cramps-hydrate and make sure you are getting enough calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Dehydration & lack of electrolytes are the most…
  • anybody have extremely tight calves? I've had them ever since I started the workouts on Saturday. Ouch! Trying to stretch and foam roll!
  • I just started recently, too! How are you liking it? Are you going to post your before picture soon? I will be doing day 4 today, Cardio Recovery. Love it so far! I hope this feeling lasts the entire time but I have a feeling month 2 is pretty tough!! We can do it!
  • Just finished Day 3 and feeling great!! What do you guys eat after the workouts? I'm about to grab a greek yogurt with strawberries! How's everybody's progress going?
  • Congrats! Looking great!! Just curious, did you follow the nutrition plan? nevermind, read above! Great job!!
  • Hello! Just started Insanity Saturday, May 11th so I'm on Day 3 today! Saturday I did Plyometric to see if I would even like the program, which of course I did! So I did my Fit Test yesterday! Today is Day 3 and I'm pumped to do this at work in our gym! Ready to stick to this program, but not sure about following the diet.…
  • Pay more attention to the added sugars in sweets and beverages compared to the natural sugars in fruits. Try to keep added sugars below 25 g a day which is equal to about 6 teaspoons and 100 calories.
  • Wow! I came to this board because I was becoming discouraged with my weight loss journey so far but that all turned around when I saw your results. Hard work and dedication will get you far!! Good job!!
  • I'm new to the boards...what does this mean?
  • I'm working on losing fat so I want to gain lean muscle mass to replace it. My main focus is toning my thighs and stomach. I also have little-to-no upper body strength and tend to ignore this area because my legs need the most work. Thanks for all the suggestions! Can't wait to check them out :)
  • agree! Whenever I say I'm going to the gym acquantences (sp?) always say "why I think you look great" I'm not gonna lie, it's great to hear but I know I need more work! Keep it up on the exercise! It will make a huge difference!
  • I love Zumba! I take live classes and I record it as high intensity cardio even though I think I burn more than it says.
  • embarrassing enough-this is me. For the past year or so I had myself convinced that I was healthy because sure I look thin in clothes, but underneath it's a different story. I actually had a DXA scan which measures body composition and my results were (i'm ashamed to say) 35% fat....eeek! As if that isn't enough…
  • oh thanks. i didn't realize you could search. i'm new to this obviously, lol. Well my stomach has been upset lately and was wondering if this could be due to whey protein?
  • Thanks for the movie info! I just watched the trailer and it looks amazing so I added it to my instant queue on Netflix. Hopefully I can watch it tonight! Interesting information too however, you actually can overdose on some vitamins.
  • Great idea planning out your day's food. I bet that works very well. Especially if you work, you can already have planned out exactly what you are eating. You have to have a positive image in your head that you can do this and stay motivated. My problem is being PATIENT. Everybody wants instant gratification and healthy…
