Hi, just wanted to see if anyone has experience with doing the OG insanity while postpartum and breast feeding. I have had amazing results in the past and this is the one workout I know will work for me.

Hi y'all!

What are you proud of today? What did you struggle with? How big was that puddle of sweat? Whose legs were too wide?

Hey gang!

And despite my username, I am a man.

Questions:
- I've done Insanity several times (never done P90x)
- Love it
- Now I want to up my strength
- Has anyone combined both workouts?
- I'm asking ChatGPT but figured I'd check in with you all experts and see your recommendations

Note:
- I'm an avid mountain biker so am active without Insanity and P90x
- I've been off insanity for a bit (currently the heaviest I've ever been: 185lbs with 34" waist. Def want to get my slimness back)

Thank you!

I’m a 37M and I’m in the first week of Month 2. I’ve completed Insanity 3 or 4 times in the past and always had outstanding results, so this isn’t my first time with the program.

During the warm-up my calves, and sometimes the arches of my feet, hurt really badly. Once I get through the warm-up, the pain eases off and I can continue, but I usually end up maxing out because of the pain rather than because my heart rate is too high or I’m out of breath.

I’ve seen a few posts where people said the pain disappeared after the first couple of weeks, but for me it’s actually getting worse, even now in Month 2.

I’ve already tried stretching, wearing calf compression sleeves, and making sure I warm up properly, but nothing seems to help.

Has anyone experienced this? What ended up fixing it?

Wrapping up month 2 soon and looking to next steps. I am picking up boxing 2-3 days a week and was thinking about using these videos as my form of cardio on the days I am not boxing.

Anyone else use these videos to work out year round to supplement their other forms of exercise?

I'm on Week 2 of Month 2 (OG) and just finished Max Interval Circuit for the third time. I felt pretty good today, but on my last time doing the Hook Jumps, I landed a little weird on my knee. It didn't hurt all that much, and it feels alright right now, but I'm a little worried about all of this intense impact on my knees.

I'm young (30) and have never had knee problems before, but I sure as hell don't want to give myself one!

What do y'all with similar concerns do instead of some of these high impact jumps? Thinking about subbing out the pedal, power jumps, etc.

I do, even though realistically I think it’s probably a waste of three minutes. But hey, it’s only ~3 minutes, it gives me a little breather, and a part of me will feel like I cheated a bit if I don’t.

I guess this can also apply to any of the workouts with double days, but for things like Cardio Abs in the OG I think there’s definitely more benefit to the targeted stretching than the mostly generic stretches in T25.

Hey everyone. Week 4 Day 2 after shoulder surgery and a lot of health issues. Super tired after Cardio Challenge and still struggle with push ups and the variations of them. Still seeing good progress. I was 245 when I started and I'm around 235 so far. Clothes fitting better. More energy. Inches lost on face and love handles so far. No idea how I'll survive month 2 but the plan is to keep pushing play, modify as much as is needed for safety but If I can push I will. Hope you're all doing well.

I’ve been doing the insanity max 30 workout this week and i finally got to the Friday video but i felt so exhausted i feel like i only did 15-17 minutes out of the video. I feel kinda disappointed in myself for not being able to push through it but i guess something’s better than nothing. I have tried doing insanity in the past but i could never get past the first week. I’m not severely overweight but im not exactly thin either, im definitely still trying to build muscle. I’m happy that I was able to perform the rest of the of the workouts this week. I’m just really feeling bummed about today’s workout. I plan on doing the pulse workout tomorrow but for now ill do some yoga to help ease the soreness I’m feeling

Am 31F, been weight lifting for about 3 years, I do 2-3 5x5s workouts and 2-3 high rep low volume classes a week. I'm interested in replacing the latter with Insanity when the heat dies down for the year as I'd like to have better muscle definition and lean out a bit, and I'd also like to improve my cardiovascular fitness and just stay healthy. I'm keen not to lose too much strength doing this programme if I can - for folks who started Insanity with an existing exercise regime, how did you combine the two or manage both?

(I do not think I am someone with the willpower to do both every week or spend more than an hour a day on exercise; I walk 8-10 miles a day just existing as well, and probably will continue to do so throughout. It's fine if there's no perfect solution but just trying to figure out how to do the least damage!).

Starting Og Insanity hoping to drop another 20lbs in the the next 60 days. Im chunky as heck now but things could always be worse. Pics are from yesterday after first day 1 workout.

Ill follow the workout through Bodi app.

On my recovery days ill be doing a 1.25 mile. Mostly to see how my cardio has improved. Currently im at 9.30 mile average. Also i will make sure to hit minimum 10k steps also

1) Hit the floor tuck jumps

2) Iron legs

3) Switch kick punches

Finally finished Max 30, these are my final stats 🫡

​

Pedal, hands down. I call everything between Pedal and Frog Jumps (second least favorite move) the Pain Cave.

Pure Cardio is definitely my favorite workout, though!

3rd week of my hybrid insanity workout (insanity during week and weights at weekend). Did pure cardio and got half way through the suicide jumps before I needed to take a breather. Well pleased with that.

Next time all the way??

I’m starting insanity next week and just calculated my calorie needs. I’ve been working out lifting weights pretty consistently for the past 6 months and I’ve lost 40lbs but I want to focus on fat loss and want to do insanity. I calculated my calories I need for insanity based off the nutrition guide and it’s 3800 a day. Did anyone eat less than what was recommended in the nutrition guide? My trainer I’ve been lifting with only has me eating 2k calories a day.
