Insanity work-out

[Thaksinssoldier]

I found it easy after the first week or so. Well when I say that I mean the moves were easy not the amount of effort I put into it.
The results were very impressive for a 25 minute a day video.
In the ten weeks I went from 78kg (12st 4 in old money) to 64.8kg (10st 3)
I didn't follow the diet for the first 5 weeks but I was still losing quite a bit. When I followed the diet the weight just fell off.
I still went out pissing up and stuff. (Thanks to Jules LOL)

It's a little strange as I used to look forward to doing my 25 minutes a day and normally exercise is a little bit of a chore.

I'd recommend it for people to try (even fatties) as they can follow the bird who does the modifying (low impact)

Ah Tonya, the c**t from all his videos. There's a large part of me wants to punch her smug face every time I'm killing myself and she's smiling away enjoying it.

I'll probably try this after Insanity, then give P90x a whirl.

Yeah:I'm in two minds what to do after gamma. I was thinking P90x3.

I was talking to someone yesterday who's been very unimpressed with p90x3 compared to previous two.

Really? Typical I've just ordered it as well.

First week done of Insanity, rest day tomorrow.

Got to say I feel absolutely great!

Hard work but enjoying it!

Well done!You will not believe the difference you'll see by the next fit test. Keep pushing hard man!

I just completed month one tonight. Down to 14.5 stone(this is 2.5 stone lighter than when I started). Huge results and I hear month 2 is when it really kicks your ass.

 

[ManuelPellegrini]

Enjoying this so far... Only issue I am having is the tricep dips...

One of my triceps pulls everytime I do this exercise which is starting to frustrate me a bit. I don't think its bad form either

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

I'm just as poor with the tricep dips etc. They floor me, and I always thought I'd strong strength in them.

Yesterday is the first day in 6 weeks I couldn't work out, thanks to a dodgy stomach, but looking forward to getting back at this later. Month 2 is bloody torturous.

 

[ManuelPellegrini]

So I had to start this programme again as I had to leave the country for a week unexpectedly. I had only done the first week so not too much lost...

I finish week 2 of the programme this Sunday and I am feeling amazing. Strength has improved, fitness has improved and I have shed fat from my gut/man tits already... I can see my abs starting to come through...

Really pleased with my results so far so that's definitely inspiration to keep pushing through this!

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

you gotta stick at it man.

I've 2 weeks left. Down under the 14 stone mark now and feeling great. It's a bloody killer though.

Don't worry about that I'll be sticking with it alright... What are your plans after you finish the programme?

I was a runner before I started insanity, and now I'm back running again.

My experience of it is you feel stronger for sure, you get subtle little muscle ripple in random parts of your body, BUT as i said I'm back running now, and insanity definitely made me lose fitness, not gain it. Granted I was carrying a bit more muscle, but not loads, and I just couldn't get anywhere near my previous times. I prefer running.

Right guys and gals, really wanted to share this with you all. I started to get out of shape and really started to get pissed off in the way my body was going. In my earlier days I ran for Lancashire and played football at semi pro level and always in good shape. I met her indoors and as in any other relationship the time training was getting less and less as i wanted to see her. So from training 6 times a week it went down to Monday night football which at first seemed to be ok. I never really noticed a change in my overall appearance but it hit home when I got back home from my holidays and looked at the pictures. I was a bit of a shock to the system and really put things into perception. Did I want to carry on like this or did I want to at 33 do something about it?.

Its weird how it happened and how I got to know about Insanity as I never heard or seen it before. I used to drink about 4 cans a larger a night, which to most is not a lot but gets me merry. anyway after a few largers and falling a sleep feeling sorry for my self I woke up about 1am in the morning in front of the TV and Insanity was on, I think it was Sky Sports 4 the channel was, you know when the programs go off and they replace it with shopping channels. I woke and got hooked straight away it was telling me that its not to late to start to get the body most people want and showing me instances in where people lost loads of weight in 60 days!... Now to me most of the time I watch this type of adverts I think what a load of bull shit, but for some reason this planted a seed in my brain. I recored the advert as it was late at night and went to bed.
A coulpe of days later I re watched the advert again, again I was hooked so i decided to ring the number up. I bought in to it all and purchased the stuff. Now its not cheap, it cost me £200 which included the DVD box set and a rubber mat. But I looked at it this way, its 4 months of gym membership that I have joined in the past but never really been to as I get pissed off with how busy they are when i can go.

Now about insanity, It a 60 day work-out video and it claims that you can see results in 60 days seems impossible, but I promise you it works. It a 30-40 min work out each night at home, my living room is not the biggest and i can do it in that. I started at a weight of 12 stone 3", now and in 5 weeks im down to 10 stone 9" and my body is looking like i was when i was 21. If you do it each night you will see the results.

Heres the add i saw, see what you think......

any questions please ask away.

I've got the discs but to unfit to walk over to the DVD player to put them in...

Insanity is probably the worst possible workout a runner could do. It's designed for short term explosiveness and rest, the complete opposite of what you've conditioned your body to do.

I've one week left.Gonna take two weeks to just do light routines, then doing the first month again. I won't do the second one again. After that I'm gonna go all in at p90x. I feel great getting to this point but there are days my body is like jelly.

Just finished T-25 A, B and G. Giving blood next week so will be starting P90x3 2 weeks Monday.

How did you find T-25? I have done Insanity twice and just recently come back off holiday and need to start my fitness again. I'm going to tryT 25 mixed with both Cardio and Weights on alternative nights

After Insanity I definitely got more muscle definition especially on the upper body but the diet side of it let me down hence still a bit of flab around the mid section. I just need to go that extra yard with my diet as my fitness work is spot on. Working away is hard work, when staying in hotels and trying to eat healthy. Most lads are in the bar every night and go for currys, pizza's etc.. I have become a bit of a recluse to avoid all this stuff but I go out at least one night with them just to be sociable. Then getting home at weekend I just eat crap and have a few beers.

I need a decent nutrition programme to follow which is realistic. Has anyone got any tips or a certain programme they follow? not including the Insanity's own diet plan.

I've been sticking to the diet strictly however at weekend having a day where I eat what I want and have a couple of drinks.

I'm eating 5 meals a day as recommended by the nutrition guide.
For breakfast I'll have porridge with skimmed milk, fruit and fat free yoghurt .

Mid morning I'll have a chicken salad wrap on brown tortilla.

Lunch time I'll have a tuna salad pasta (brown pasta) or tuna and some sweet potato.

Mid afternoon I'll have a protein shake and banana pre workout.

Evening meal is usually meat and veggies or sometimes I'll make an omelette.

I was working away recently and ate steak each night. I requested veggies instead of chips and onion rings!

Cheers for the that. I'm going to have to get a grip and work out a diet plan of my own and get some momentum in eating healthy , correct nutrition is half the battle.
