Week 6, the beginning of the second half of the program actually surprised the wife and me, it's actually.......Way Harder!!! No kidding, we thought the first half was rough but this is a whole notch above that, longer workouts, longer sets, less breaks.

I've got a lot of respect for anyone who's been through the full 9 weeks of this without skipping, I really think we'll be in the top 1% of people anywhere in terms of physical fitness after this. And Sarah already said she's going to do another round as soon as we finish!

Finished up Insanity round 1, here's my after pic, no "before" pics unfortunately but I lost a few pounds of fat and got my cardio conditioning up to a truly insane level! My wife is starting it all over, round 2, yay for a wife that likes to work out

Now me and a friend are hitting the weights hard for a few weeks/months in an attempt to put on a few pounds of muscle, mostly in the legs and back. I noticed yesterday I've got veins across my shoulders when lifting again, something I haven't had since P90X a couple years ago so I know my BF% is now solidly below 10% again which is where I want to keep it.

Viva ongoing personal development!

How long are the sessions every day including warm up?

WISH ONE · 07-29-2011, 03:53 PM

the only downfall with these programs is that most of the people doing them dont have the discipline or drive to finish them.
To all of you who are on track, Props!

Around 45 minutes or so.

Insanity is much more effective than P90X, IMO
Of course that is really dependant on how involved you are in the workout. If you cheesedick the exercises, then you are most likely not going to feel it, and think it's pretty dumb.

Just starting week 4. Not following the diet, as I was already eating a healty diet that has worked for me, and have lost about 6 lbs and kept it off. Shit is still tuff as hell and getting up at 445am to do it doent help either. Kinda anxious on what the second half is all about as its supposed to be herra harder.
