INSANITY!

I finally broke down and bought Insanity.



Intimidating, maybe. Great sweat, YES!

Insanity is this hard core work out system that takes you through 60 days of cardio and weight training. Shaun T is the creator of this system and he is amazing! So far I have complete week 1. Some days I didn't know if I was going to finish the work-outs, but I pushed myself. The time varies day to day but averages around 40 minutes. The cardio stints are amazing and push your body so hard. I usually blast well over 400 calories in these work-outs. I purchased the 13 disc version, but have only done 4 discs following my schedule.

Most of the reviews I read said it can be rough on your knees. I now see what they mean, but I have been making modifications where I see fit. I am no personal training expert, but I have worked with enough of them to know how to properly work with my body! My recommednation would be to work at your own pace and build. Shaun T will tell you the same!

These work-outs are so intense, even Shaun T can't talk at times and can't remember the name of the work-out we are on! D described it best for me as a line backer's training schedule, I only hope to get some results of sliming down a few pounds and inches over the next 60 days!

Here are my starting inch measurements:
Waist:34"
Thigh:24"
Calf:13"
Butt:40" (yes, I have some junk in the trunk!)
Upper Arm:13"
Weight: 1X1 (can't reveal my real weight. maybe in the future based on my progress I will share my final results!)

I plan on doing a mid journey post measurement and final post measurements. Putting the program to the test while tracking on Weight Watchers!

How do you keep motivated to work-out?
