  • Hey everyone! It's been awhile since I've been on here, but I just finished my second round of Insanity yesterday (phew!!) and I have Asylum sitting here ready to go. I'm wondering how long I should wait to start it, though. What do all of you Insanity grads already in the Asylum suggest? I don't want to take so long off…
  • I'm so excited for you! I am ten days away from finishing my 60 days and I'm pumped! The hardest for me has been sticking with the Nutrition plan consistently...I'll do really well for four or five days and then bad for a few days, etc. but I can still see the definition and my mom was in the dressing room with me two…
  • I'm in the AF...not nearly as tough as the Army :) And a skinfold caliper is a device that you use to measure your fat in different areas on your body and the measurements all factor in to tell you what your total body fat percentage is. And Lisa, Insanity is a workout plan from Beach Body (the people who did P90X, Power…
  • I'm glad to hear that your husband is enjoying the results you're seeing ;) That's definitely good to hear! I'm hoping to lose the last stubborn bit of flab I have. I'm having my wedding in Oct (yes, already married in the court, but I deployed so we never had a wedding and I'm finally moving to be with him...so this is…
  • So I fell off the wagon last weekend. My husband and I are currently long distance and we met up at my parents' house for the Fourth long weekend. I did do Insanity and yoga (with my super-fit, almost-60 mother who I'm so proud of) one day but we just had too much going on the other two days...sooooo I started over this…
  • Thanks for the response :) I actually went in and changed my protein, carb and fat levels to what is suggested in the Insanity nutrition plan. And my levels are showing pretty good with protein now, I'm running low on fat left for the day, though but I guess this is just something I'm going to have to keep working with…
  • Hello all! I took it upon myself to join your thread because I started this Monday (6/28)...I'm a week behind you but I have to say that my butt has been kicked by the first day (the Fit Test in itself was bad enough) but so far I feel good. I love workouts like this. I have a question for you, though. I've seen a lot on…
  • Hi! I wouldn't worry too much about going over if you're factoring in the vitamin. My old roommate is a Dietician and I was worried about getting too much of certain vitamins through a mulit and mentioned that to her. She informed me that your body absorbs vitamins from a pill form differently than it absorbs them from…
  • Thanks! I think you guys are right...I'll just keep an eye on my protein throughout the day and factor in dinner...if I'm nowhere near the total I should be at then I'll down a little more protein after Spinning tonight!
  • Thanks everyone...I'm looking forward to starting this! I can't help but get excited when I read everyone elses' posts about how great it is!!!
  • I agree too! I used to be one of those newbies and a few years later I'm a certified instructor and LOVE IT when new people come!
  • Thanks for the quick response! I'm glad to hear that you're not taking the supplements also. I'm not worried about getting crazy ripped, my main thing is that I can see my muscles when I flex but there's definitely a nice little layer of isulation over them, haha. That's what I want to get rid of and tone it up! I guess…
  • Hello everyone! I've been reading all of these posts about how great P90X is, I've talked to some people in person who have done it and I'm feeling like now is the time for me to get the program and get started. I have a couple of questions though... 1) How many of you take the supplements with the program? I didn't…
