Marathon Training and Cross Training (Insanity video)?
Hey everyone! So I'm training for my first marathon that will be in April (so it's still a ways away), but I'm still trying out a few different Marathon plans and figuring out which one I want to stick with. All of them have one day of cross training so I know that's an important aspect, but I was wondering if the Insanity…

Big calorie difference in Month 2 Insanity workouts?
I did Max Interval Circuit yesterday and burned about 432 calories, but I did Max Interval Plyo today and only burned 345. That's almost 100 calories less! Is that normal, or am I doing something wrong? I feel like there shouldn't be that big of a discrepancy between those two workouts. What do you guys think and what have…

I want to run today; should I still do Insanity Pure Cardio?
I'm in my 4th week of Insanity so I only have a few workouts left in the Month 1 of Insanity! I'm really enjoying the program and have been sticking with the schedule. Previous to doing Insanity I was running 4-5 days per week, and I have been doing very little of that since I started Insanity. I really want to get a run…

Should I take today off of Insanity?
So I'm on my 4th week of Insanity right now and I'm really enjoying the program. I've been sticking to the schedule pretty well with a little bit of changes here and there, but never missing a workout during the week without making it up. My last "rest day" was 12 days ago because on the rest day I decided to go on a run.…

Should I take a day off of Insanity today?
So I'm on my 4th week of Insanity right now and I'm really enjoying the program. I've been sticking to the schedule pretty well with a little bit of changes here and there. My last "rest day" was 11 days ago because on the rest day I decided to go on a run. Do you think my body would do well if I take a rest day today? If…

How to stop "binge eating" at night?
Hey guys! So I'm starting my third week of Insanity this week and I love the program. I've been trying to follow the nutrition guide as well as I can and I do very well with it during the day, but then at night I just can't help but snack on EVERYTHING. I'm not depriving myself calorie wise or food wise, so I don't know…

2 months of no running? What will happen to my progress?
I've been distance-running for the past 2.5-3 years, and I've gotten pretty good in my opinion! I recently completed a half marathon (13.1 miles) in 1 hour and 37 minutes. I typically have run 4-5 times a week, with an average of 4-6 miles when I'm not training for anything (it was different for the half marathon of…

Insanity or keep running? Will I lose my running fitness?
I'm 18 years old, female, 5'1" and about 93 lbs. I'm a distance runner and just completed my first half marathon 2 weeks ago finishing with a time of 1 hour and 37 minutes. Whenever I go for a run I run about a 7-7:30 minute mile, and my average run is 5 miles but I sometimes run more or less. I have been doing Insanity…

Burning less than 300 calories on Insanity?
I just started Insanity yesterday so today I did the plyometric cardio circuit and i burned 273 calories. I worked as hard as I possibly could and was sweating a lot so I know it's not that I didn't push myself hard enough. I know it's probably because I'm a pretty petite person (18 yrs old, 5'1" and 93 lbs), but since I'm…

Missing Insanity workouts for a week???
Hi guys! So I just started doing the Insanity 60 day program today and I'm super excited! I made it through the fit test and everything, but next month I am going to be going to California for about a week and I'm staying with my boyfriend's family so the chances of me being able to do any of the Insanity videos are VERY…

Garmin Forerunner 410 HR monitor for Insanity?
I would really like to use a heart rate monitor when I do the Insanity challenge, but I don't want to buy a new one if I don't have to. I have the Garmin Forerunner 410 which comes with a HR monitor, but can it be used or workouts like Insanity or will it only work for running? Thanks!

Which shoes should I run my half marathon in (old or new)?
I am running a half marathon on Sunday and I just bought a new pair of running shoes. I did my last 2 runs in them (4 and 5 miles) and the felt pretty good, but I have a blister on my toe now from them. I know I probably shouldn't have changed running shoes, but I thought it would be okay since they are just an improved…

will this be damaging to my running? half marathon!!
I'm running a half marathon in 9 days, and I ran 11 miles yesterday and am taking today as a rest day. 11 miles was the longest run I have done in almost a year, but I did it kind of on a whim and it really wasn't hard. I'm not sore or anything either--I feel pretty great. My friend wants to run 10 miles tomorrow with me…
