Have you done Insanity?

My sister in law might be sending us a copy because she's been able to find them used/cheap where she lives and I'm really excited about trying it. Has anyone done it? What kind of results did you have? Did you do the eating plan as well?

 

TIA

Re: Have you done Insanity?

  • I did the first 30 days and then fell and had a concussion (not Insanity related) and had to take 6 weeks off of exercise, so I lost my momentum. I love it. I saw huge improvements in performance on the DVDs, I increased my running speed and I toned up quite a bit. I did not do the eating plan. 

    I plan to incorporate a couple of days of Insanity a week with my weight training after I'm cleared to exercise in a few weeks.

  • I did it before my wedding and saw results really fast. I lost about 20 lbs and got really toned. I really enjoyed it, but don't have time for it any more. I feel like if  could fit it into my schedule my running would improve a lot, so I might try to squeeze it in after I graduate. I didn't follow the eating plan, but I eat pretty healthy on my own.

  • My husband and I are doing it right now.  We are finishing the second week of it today.  Tonight we will do measurements and even though I haven't officially measured, I can tell a difference after these 2 weeks.  I do know that I have only lost a pound so far.  We are not following the eating plan, but we do follow a pretty healthy diet.  It definitely makes you sweat!
  • I did the first 30 days and then my work schedule changed so I didn't continue it. But I hope to start doing it again soon. I noticed a huge difference with my energy level when I was doing it. I never measured myself but I could tell I was loosing inches!

    I never did the meal portion of it, but I eat pretty healthy!

  • I did the first 30 days and I liked it, but I liked P90X better. Insanity really improved my cardio fitness (which I needed), but I felt that I lost much of the strength I gained from P90X.

    If you get it for free, definitely try it. It's nice because you don't need any equipment and very little space. Plus Shaun T is nice to look at. Stick out tongue

  • I completed the first 30 days last summer and plan to do it again. I didn't continue with the rest of the program because the second 30 days was so intense I couldn't keep up. (I have a lot of weight to lose). I did enjoy the program and would recommend it, I had so many comments that I looked like I was losing weight etc when it was more of toning.
