Insanity work-out

[Mayor West]

I have just finished a Focus T25 workout, the core cardio one. I thought it was going to be a doddle compared to insanity, but it is just as hard in a different way. So many different moves you have to do and some require a lot more speed and coordination than insanity, the coordination I struggled with haha! Think I'll stick with insanity though.

Just finished the 3rd day doing Insanity. I'm really enjoying it and have been sweating buckets. I usually do Cardio quite intensely for an hour in the gym but this is just as tough. I thought I was quite fit BUT I found the Tricep Dips and the Moving Press Ups harder than I thought.

I can see you will definitely reap the rewards if you stick to this programme.

start of week 3 and twisted my knee on monday so no insanity for a few days, still keeping up with diet and water so not all bad news

Still going with Insanity. I'm currently half way through week 3 and still enjoying it. I just completed Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs. I started training for a half marathon (my first) in September so I've had to change my schedule slightly. I'm now running three times a week and filling the gaps in with Insanity (and resting of course). Thank you for everybody who shared their experiences in this thread. Those stories are what convinced me to get my arse in gear.

Some stupid law that says lads are allowed maternity leave to help their new brats.
I'll flog the bastards into the ground when they get back.
Two minions were around alas they are older and more fragile than a ming vase.

TCIB's juicing.

Currently smashing a Insanity/P90X hybrid program. Bit more size on, and loving the workouts. First Summer in a very long time I've loved having the shirt off.

Mute Shaun T and listen to that in the last ten minutes of your workout. Can't complement Beachbody and their programmes enough. Changed my life.

Just finished month one of Insanity. Biggest difference I have noticed is upper body/shoulder strength, shoulders seem bigger and have got grooves and bumps I've never seen before! At the start I struggled to 3 press ups, can get to 7/8 now, so that's a big increase in one month.

Second month ive read you have to increase calorie intake as gets even more insane, not looking forward to the extra food intake.

I'd say second month is 3 or 4 times harder. Found myself eating a hell of a lot more and upped Protein shakes to 3 a day.

On a side note I did the ab workout from T25 earlier. Fucking hell they should have done that in Insanity. Now swapped off all ab workouts in hybrid program to T25 Abs. Literally having trouble bending down.

Yeah the other half is doing T25, I tried one on the beta phase, I'm not coordinated enough!!

Really looking forward to month 2 but dreading it at the same time.

Recovery week gets you prepared for working out for longer, and I'm pretty sure you have to be a bleeding ballet dancer to complete T25.

Anyway don't worry, the results difference at the end of the first week of month 2 is bloody scary. Woke up one morning, looked in mirror and was like fucking hell.

Awesome, looking forward to it, just wish I had taken a few pics of before I started, didn't even think.

Chocolate and pot are seriously fucking this up for me.

Not to sound like a complete twat but if you're doing this while still smashing chocolate and weed you obviously don't want it enough and that's coming from an ex 20 a day smoker with a moderate to high alcohol problem. Moderate them to once a week, you'll soon moderate it to fuck all when you start feeling the benefits.<br /><br />-- Sat Jul 27, 2013 7:08 pm --<br /><br />

I'm glad I took them, gives me something to look back on. How is the missus getting on with T25 besides the obvious need for a degree in breakdancing decent results?

If your being serious........ Then its decision time mate.

Either carry on looking and probably feeling like shite or get your act together and show some determination to change.
