Robert,
I’m 28 year old, 5’7 and 138lbs. I was thinking about trying insanity but I don’t know if it is right for me. I ran track in college and now I’m noticing that my body is not as tone as it use to be. I don’t want to lose weight, instead I wantto gain about 10lbs. Do you think that insainty is right for me? Going to Cancun for vacation in Aug. and I want my body from college to go with me.
Hi! I just started Insanity. Tomorrow is day 5 for me and I love it so far! I am 5’8 and 140lbs, about 22% body fat. I’ve plateaued because I used to be about 220, and ever since I hit 140 I can’t seem to budge. I eat healthy, I work out.. And I’m hoping Insanity will help me get over that hump. Any suggestions? I’d just like to lose 10lbs.
Jenna, Congrats on the weight loss from 220 to 140, AMAZING! Insanity is a great program and if you really dial in your nutrition, and eat clean, you’ll get rid of that last 10 lbs. It will be the hardest 10 lbs to lose, but its possible. You have to be super strict on your nutrition, and you need to make sure you have your calories right. I have a free 5 day course, that will help you make sure you have the calories right on day 1. It’s free, this is the link to sign up. http://eepurl.com/hXD1-/
Amy, If you are wanting to gain weight with Insanity, you’re going to have to eat more calories than you burn in a day. And you will burn a lot of calories with the Insanity workouts. Have you considered something like P90X? This has some weight routines in it that will help you add muscle tone. http://www.extremely-fit.com/p90x-extreme-training-workout.html
Robert, I asked about starting Insanity or look for something else after not being able to finish the fit test. You said it was not easy and man you are right. I decided to do it and again I got through the first three tests and got sick and could not finish. I decided to try it anyway. I am now on my third week and finished the fit test! I improved on the three exercises that I was able to do on the first try and feel I did ok on the others. Today I had the best workout so far. I take breaks when needed and find myself pushing harder every day. Today I did the complete warm up without stopping. I know that sounds wimpy, but its a huge improvement from day one. I also am able to get back in it sooner after taking a break. The weight is starting to come now. Started at 194 and now 188. I feel great!
Danny, This is FANTASTIC! Consistency pays off! Stay after it, and you’ll be amazed at your progress. Keep me posted!!
hi im not sure if insanity is right for me im 21 5″8 i dont know my weight i think its almost 300 last i checked a year ago i was 260 i used to play high school football and walk 12 miles a day but i never lost weight i have no idea about nutritions or anything im unemployed so i cant just go work out or hire help my wake up call was a year ago when i collapsed from being so over weight i couldnt move or breath for the longest time but being unemplyed has kept me from doing anything about it i need to change that
Richard, I think Insanity would be too much to start with, I think you would see much better results, and faster results with something like Power 90. I lost 30 lbs with this program in 90 days. After a couple rounds, then think about Insanity. LMK, I’d love to keep up with you on your journey. We offer free coach support to our customers. http://www.extremely-fit.com/power-90-in-home-boot-camp.html
I have been working out at a gym consistently 6 days a week. I am loosing inches but not the weight. I am 27. 5’3 and 188lbs. Hoping this will help me get the weight off. I have 4 little kids and would love to be able to run around with them a little better! Thanks for the downloads.
Jessica, Make sure you eat clean, and your results will come even faster. Losing inches is a great thing too. Good luck!
I just started Insanity today and I love it. I manage to get trough the fit test stoping only a few times. I’m 27 years old, 5’4 and 160lb I really hope to get fit and would not mind loosing a few pounds while I do it!
Cristina, You can do this!! I’m with you all the way, if I can help, let me know!
I’m 37& 160 lbs. I completed two rounds of P90X and now thinking of insanity. My wife completed 1 round of P90X but had difficulty with the weight portion of it. She had diastasis recti and had abdominal surgery about a month and a half ago. Could she do insanity without damaging her mid section or would insanity be too much?
Maurice, After two round of P90X, I would think you’d be a great candidate for Insanity. For your wife, I’m afraid i wouldn’t be qualified to answer that question. I’m sorry. She might consider asking her physician. Insanity is all body weight type exercise and cardio. If you want to check it out further, or to get a bonus DVD with your purchase, purchase from here: http://www.extremely-fit.com/insanity-workout/.

Insanity is insane my knees were hurting now it’s better I need to loose 50 pds I wanna eat right stick to the plan and stay focused any advice
Tretha, Follow the nutrition plan closely. make sure you are consuming the right amount of calories to lose weight. I take the Joint Formula for help in keeping my knees in good shape, be sure to have the right surface for your jumps etc. Good shoes too. Use good form. Be consistent, keep pushing play. Good luck and keep us posted!
Robert,
I’m 52 yrs. old and started with Power 90 back in April of 2011. Have never been a big guy but was definitely feeling overweight. Am only 5’4″ but was up around 160 lbs when I started. Had great success with the weight loss, and by August, had moved on to Power 90 Masters. Had dabbled in P90X and finally decided to try to go a full round beginning in April of this year. After 2 months at that, I can honestly say that I continue to be in the best cardio shape of my life. Here’s my question. While I’ve certainly improved with strength, I don’t seem to be really seeing the gains in muscle (at least visibly). Don’t get me wrong — I feel stronger. But the weights I’m doing aren’t going up in any appreciable way and while I certainly look 100% better than when I started more than a year ago (now down to a “scrawny” 132-135 lbs range), I’m trying to decide whether I should be looking for a different plan that will help me to get a least some bulk/muscle. I’m assuming that Insanity would really just be a continuation of what I’ve been very good at in P90X — lots of cardio conditioning, but probably not much in terms of muscular gain? At 52, I definitely can feel the beginnings of age in the hips and knees, and often wonder if I’m doing more long-term damage than good with the Plyo aspects of P90X. Long-winded way of asking — is Insanity for me?
John, Insanity is cardio intense, and if you are wanting to add some size, Insanity may not fit your goal. It is also fairly intense in terms of Plyo, and if your knees are starting to show signs from P90X Plyo, then Insanity will continue to wear on them. Just yesterday, Beachbody released Body Beast, which by design is specific in adding size. I think you should look at the options at this link, and consider that one as your next program. Let me know if I can help! http://www.extremely-fit.com/body-beast-workout/
Robert, I’m 22, 5’6 and 222lbs. I don’t have trouble working out and I am good at pushing myself. I haven’t worked out in about a month and I am losing my muscle mass plus I have gained weight. I really need to learn nutrition and also lose weight. I’m tired of being the bigger girl so I need to know if insanity would be the right choice for me. Thanks so much!
Hi, I’m 21 and have no motivation. I last weighed in at 220 which is huge for me just 3 years ago I weighed 130. I’m wondering if insanity would be a good choice for me and my husband who is also over weight. I feeler could both stick it out. But everyone on TV looks already skinny.
I am starting the Insanity workout. I just got it. I am going to do the Fit Test just to get a feel of what I am like. I am very active regularly, but it’s food that has always kept me down. I am looking to revamp my entire nutritional lifestyle–this workout is a new step for me.
I am 5’10″ and 210lbs. Does Insanity help you get “some” muscle? Or just tighten everything up?
I heard Insanity is perfect for cardio and conditioning. I feel I want to get my conditioning up before I do any more strength training.
And how many times should you do the Fit Test before moving on?
Am thinking of trying Insanity am 170 lbs and I really want to loose weight I read everyone review and it seems that Insanity is great, but my questions is why does it says that this work outs are not for beginners is that true?
I am almost 40 yrs old and my 18 yr old dtr want to start insanity because using wts and equipment intimidates her and she can take the video’s with her to college in August. My husband and I run a local outdoor bootcamp so I thought insanity would be a great way to mix up my routine. I just thought I was in shape…. We completed the fit test 2 weeks ago and we am very excited to re-test today and see how we have improved. I did learn to not eat dinner prior to the workout!!! Very intense, exciting & loving the program.
Callie, The nutrition plan in Insanity is very cut and dried. You eat 5 times per day. Three main meals and two snacks. The guide lists several meals to choose from for each of the 5 meals. It also tells you how many calories to eat as well, but I can help you zone in on that number too. The proper number of calories per day is important. When you order from this link, you get a bonus workout and free coach support from me. Talk to you soon! http://www.extremely-fit.com/insanity-workout/
Shade, with Insanity you get a workout calendar and nutrition guide. The calendar shows you exactly which workouts to do when. The nutrition guide also details the food. Follow the guides and you can’t go wrong!
Hi, I’m planning on trying insanity. I’m just wondering if its right for me. I used to be really athletic but I’ve gained 94 pounds within the past 4 years. I would love to lose the weight so I can be healthy once again.
Mandy, I’m not sure Insanity would be the best choice for you. Insanity is challenging physically and mentally. If motivation is a problem now, the workouts will be even harder than they already are. My favorite program for individuals needing to lose weight and just starting out, or trying to start again is Power 90 or Les Mills Pump.
Carmen, I have known beginners to start Insanity, and finish to the end. On the other hand, I have known others (beginners and otherwise) that start Insanity and then quit. Insanity is a tough cardio workout. If you have the right mindset, and are determined, you’ll make it. Just take breaks as needed, rest as needed, watch your heart rate, and then just have the attitude that even if you take a lot of breaks, you’ll get better. If you are not prepared to work hard, and have the mind set that you WILL finish no matter what, then it’s probably not the right program. Here are some links. If you decide to tackle insanity, buy it from my store and I’ll give you a free bonus DVD and coach you till the end. If you think you need a more beginner type program, I recommend Power 90 or Les Mills Pump. Don’t think for a moment that the two last programs won’t help you lose weight. I lost 30 lbs with Power 90 in 90 days. And Les Mills Pump is my current program, and I love it.
Denise, That’s fantastic. Insanity is a great program. The outdoor boot camp sounds fun too! Have you ever thought of incorporating Beachbody into your local bootcamp? Learn more about that here. http://www.extremely-fit.com/beachbody-coach-business-presentation.html
Keep me posted, I enjoy following customers through their fitness journeys!
Hi Dora, I just answered a post on Insanity, and weight loss, and if it’s right for you. Here is what I posted, LMK if I can help!

Hello I just started yesterday and I couldn’t complete the fit test. Should I do the fit test again until I can be able to finish it or should I keep going with the program eventough I didnt complete the fit test ( Im 26 and 164 pounds and 5’5) I have never worked out a lot in my life! I hope you answer me fast as I already have my gym clothes on!
Kay, The Fit test was designed to get a “Starting point”. As you complete the program, you will get an opportunity to take the fit test again. Then you will see how much you improved. I would continue with the program as its scheduled in the fitness guide. You’ll need to monitor your heart rate and take breaks, but the more you stay consistent, the better you will get over time.
Hi everyone I need some advice Im 33 and weigh 164 and am only 4 ’11. It has been extremely difficult for me to lose weight. I started the insanity work out.
Today is my 3rd day and im sore. I’ve been eating healthy and working really hard to lose weight my goal is to be 125-128 like I used to be. Any advice?
I just got Insanity thanks to a really good friend and I’m about to start my journey with it…. I’m excited yet nervous. I’m 33yrs. old and mother of 3. I was told that I’d never get back to the way I use to be. I never liked being backed into a corner. I’m hoping to show them all that I can and I did what they said was impossible!!!!
Hey,
So a group of my friends and I just started Insanity on Monday.
Originally my friend Angelica and I were going to do it and push and encourage each other to keep moving, but now we have a group 5 counting myself. We all keep each other moving. So things seem to be going alright so far! Today is going to be our 3rd day. I’m having some joint issues. I have a previous knee injury that my doctor said should be okay if I slow down or stop as needed. I woke up this morning having alot of joint pains. I did the cool down, and kept moving for another 5 to 10mins after the workout. I put some Bengay on my calves and knee after my shower last night, but it didn’t seem to help much. I keep hearing about something to help joint when I read your post. Where would I look into buying this and what would be the price range of it. Thanks in advance!
Jeannie. First the things you can control. Make sure you have good shoes, and a jump mat or softer surface of some kind. Then make sure you land softly. Protect your knees as much as possible. I use the JOINT FORMULA. Love it! http://www.extremely-fit.com/joint-support-super-formula.html
If you and your group need any help, let me know. I have free coach support for my customers. I am an authorized retailer for Beachbody, so I carry the exact same items, etc. Thanks!
Dawn…. You go! I wanted the impossible too when I started in 2006. It is possible, as long as you don’t stop yourself!
Good luck!
Tammy….. Results will come with consistency with your workouts. Always push play. Take breaks as you need them, but never pause the workout, just keep going. Then the next step is your nutrition. You have to eat as clean as possible. You’ll make mistakes from time to time, but the better your nutrition, the BETTER your results! keep us posted.
Im 23 years old, at about 5’11. A year ago i weighed 250 lbs, and for some crazy reason i thought P90X was right for me..After going into a full body cramp and throwing up on day one, I realized maybe going that extreme wasnt the best idea. Well now Im down to 175, and am in better shape than ive ever been…Please encourage me that I wont suffer another full body cramp, followed by the releasing of the contents of my stomach while attempting INSANITY!
Harper congrats on getting to 175!! Insanity is a tough program. Take breaks as you need to, and stay consistent. You’ll get tired, everybody does, you’ll get sore, that’s normal too. Just keep showing up, you’ll get great results if you just show up, and push play. Stay on your nutrition too! Good luck!
Just started insanity! Completed the fit test, and I was only able to make through 22 min of day two Cardio Circuit. I was curious should I continue with the calendar or should I do Cardio Circuit until I complete it. Commited and Challenged!
Hi, Just wanted to say that I started Insanity yesterday with a friend. I’m 39 and have struggled with my weight all my life. A year ago I found out that I have Candida and no longer can eat foods with gluten in it. It has taken me a year to loose 28 pounds but I’ve kept them off and have learned so much about food. I’m 5’7 and now weigh 246. I felt so good after the workout today. Could I do all things required today? No, but I still kept moving and did what I could. I did some on low impact and when I could did some in high impact. I’m proud of myself because I didn’t think I could do some of the things. Like the Burp’e. The hands up then down into a push up and then up again… That’s what I call them anyway
Can’t wait to see where I am a month from now and say If I can do this (yes it’s hard) so can you!
Toni, Keep going! Take breaks, do your absolute best, and keep going, you’ll get better as you go.
Nvysubwf, that is awesome, you can do anything you set your mind to! Come back and give us an update later!
I lost 70ibs and ran a half marathon 2 years ago. I have gained most of my weight back. I really enjoy working out and I am thinking about starting the insanity workout. I am 5’6 and currently weigh 250. In the past I was successful with P90, but I am bored with it now. Any suggestions for me? Do you think I should start insanity workout?
Hi,
I had a baby 7 month ago and I just now decided to lose weight. I gained a lot during pregnancy and don’t feel like myself anymore. I really need to lose about 30 pounds but I’m also breastfeeding and I’m afraid that my milk supply may really diminish. Is insanity right for me at this time? Do you have any advice not so much about nutrition ( it’s pretty clear in the elite nutrition book) but supplements and vitamins that I can safely take while breastfeeding that will help me stay healthy and provide all the necessary nutrients for my little boy.
Thank you!
Hi,
I’m 19, 5’10 and weigh about 300 and looking to get into shape. I’m thinking about Insanity or P90x but not sure which one is the right one. I’m a little active I play soccer and basketball 3-4 times a week but I need to start doing more than that. I’m also a full time college student and loaded down with school stuff so I just grab anything quick to eat and also need to change that too.
Shaa, It’s totally up to you what program you start. Insanity is considerably harder than P90. If you start Insanity and have the right mindset, and are determined, you’ll make it. Just take breaks as needed, rest as needed, watch your heart rate, and then just have the attitude that even if you take a lot of breaks, you’ll get better. If you are not prepared to work hard, and have the mind set that you WILL finish no matter what, then it’s probably not the right program. If you decide to tackle insanity, buy it from my store and I’ll give you a free bonus DVD and coach you till the end. If you think you need a more beginner type program, and one that can easily expand to intermediate and advanced, then I recommend Power 90 or Les Mills Pump.
Aneta, It goes without saying that the safest approach would be to consult with your doctor FIRST before anything else. All supplements should really have your doctor’s approval. Here’s an article that might help as well. Good luck, and come back and let us know how you are doing, I think other moms would appreciate your first hand experience. http://kellymom.com/bf/can-i-breastfeed/lifestyle/mom-exercise/
