Marianne: Awesome results on the fit test. 7 more power jumps!!!!! Isn't it amazing the way the plyo power comes on strong in month 2? I wouldn't worry so much about the suicide jumps, I'm sure your quads were quite toast after all the power jumps and globe jumps. Brenda

Hi Marianne, MIST is such a great workout. My quads are hot by the time the guard drills come up and those bronco jumps are really hard placed so deep in the workout. I had to set a mirror up in my exercise room and watch myself to get the form down..... my initial attempts at that exercise...

Eunice, I finished Insanity a week ago and my hardest week was exactly where you are now. I was very tired the third week of Month 2, but I pushed through it (and took some Ibuprofen for my aching hamstrings) and the last week was a strong week for me. I went through what you are going...

I have been able to do all the Imaxes all the way through without stopping for a while now. It was a matter of building up to it. Recently I completed the Beachbody's Insanity program and today I "breezed through" Imax 3!!! I did the last 3 blasts a second time because I felt I could go...

Hi Y'all, Well, I lasted 2 days without Shaun T.... I scheduled "The Viper" workout for Monday before my Pilates class but didn't have enough time, so I popped CPR in the DVD and was I surprised at how much easier the workout is since completing the rotation. I believe I have gotten...

Becky- so sorry to hear about your ankle. As hard as it is, you really need to rest the joint for it to heal properly. We all understand how frustrating this is for you, but what a story about how it happened!! The only time I had a bad sprain like that it was because I rolled it on uneven...

Becky: YOU ROCK!!!! What a great day for you, so many personal Mount Everests conquered in 1 race. What a woman1 Brenda

Good Morning Y'all I hope everybody is having a great weekend. Jennifer: How does it feel to be finished? It's hard to believe we have been at this 2 months Sandra: Insanity on top of your schedule would be grueling to say the least. A little comfort from some friends every now and then...

I just finished the Insanity rotation on Thursday and I am very pleased with the results. I lost more weight than I wanted to so i had to eat more to gain a couple pounds back, my abs have never been this defined ( I am a Pilates instructor) and my cardio capacity has majorly improved. I was...

Happy Friday Ladies!! Jennifer: One more day and you are finished!! WOOT WOOT What an accomplishment. In the future when I want to blast throu a plateau I will definitely repeat Insanity again- for the near fututre I want to maintain my results. One thing this rotation showed me is that...

How Y'all Doin'?? This morning I taught a yoga class then came straight home to IA and MCC. I think the yoga helped get me primed for the last day because I powered through with just a few seconds out here and there for water. I did those football sprints into low planks right with the crew...

Good Morning, MIP is in the can and I am feeling that post workout glow of accomplishment and strength. It is amazing how doable the exercises are now so deep into this program. I am not keeping up with Shaun and the crew on some of the exercises ( power pushups are slow for me in order to...

Hi Y'all Just completed MIST (subbed for CCB in this last week of Insanity) and I forgot how much I like this workout. I will admit, my last 4 bronco jumps looked more like toad hops and that low plank pulse during the football drills is still pure evil in my mind!! 2 more workouts...

You early morning chicks rock!! I guess I could get up an hour earlier to get the workout in, but my current 4:45AM (on workdays) is as early as I can muster. Even on days when I am off I can't seem to get Insanity started until about 8 at the earliest, my joints need time to get used to...

Good Evening Ladies, Looks like evryone had a busy weekend getting all that baking, cleaning and laundry done. I hear y'all on those hip openers, my hamstrings have been talking to me all weekend. I think I may squeeze in a little yoga before bedtime tonite. Marianne: great gains on...

Good Morning!! Today starts the last week of Insanity!! Felt very strong doing MIP this morning. I went all out and had to pause the dvd a couple of times due to dizzines! I really have to get a new battery in my heart monitor watch.... the darn thing read my highest heart rate at 154 and...

Hi Y'all, Today was the last day of week 7-CCB.I did this workout after teaching a power yoga class and I forgot about those darn shoulder burners at the end, such a joy after doing tons of chatarungas and plank work. I had to squeeze my abs very tight to relieve that BURNING IN MY...

Oh Dawn.... Great job doing Insanity AND meso 2!! I don't believe I could do STS and the 5 Insanity workouts per week!! When I start STS again, i am thinking about doing 3 hard cardio/ plyo workouts and 2 endurance cardio workouts each week. GREAT GOING WITH PUSHING THROUGH. Dawn: I'm with...

Looks like everyone is enjoying a great Labor Day. Today I did Cardio Abs and MIC ending everything a happy sweaty heap of energy!! These workouts are definitely getting easier, still a challenge, but easier. I actually was able to do the entire cardio abs without a break... doing that first...

I am 48 years old (kickbox/ bootcamp instructor) and my feet were killing me the first week of Insanity. I work out on carpet over 180 year old hardwood floor so there is very little bounce on my floor. What saved my feet/ legs were Impact Gel Sole Inserts, I replaced the sole inserts of my...
