Insanity Back probelms
Hey, I just started insanity and today is my third day. My lower back hurts really bad when I bend. Has anyone else experienced this? I don't do an exercise if I feel like I can do the move correctly yet, and if my form is starting to falter I use that as a water break time to recoop a little. Thanks for the input everyone!

How do you weigh?
Ok so this may be tmi...but just wondering how everyone weighs in. I have been told you should be completely naked and stand on the scale, and then I have been told to add in the extra weight of clothes (so wear the clothes) because that's what you usualy have on. So how are you suppose to weigh in? Thanks! :)
