My Insanity Results

I completed 60 days of Insanity yesterday and it feels oh so good.  I've attempted to do this workout program two other times and didn't finish it, so this was a huge accomplishment!  I didn't see INSANE results mostly due to the fact I couldn't quite change my eating/drinking habits.  Although I tried, I couldn't juggle doing the intense workouts, eating clean, and cutting out booze entirely. (I do live in Bend, Oregon where there's a brewery on every street corner)  With that said, I did get A LOT stronger and my Fit Test shows how much I improved in just 60 days.


A couple things to note: The numbers for my switch kicks and globe jumps are for one full rep.  Also, I couldn't do a push-up let alone a push-up jack when I first started, so I did modified push-ups for each test.

Each time I had a Fit Test I would cover up my previous numbers so it would be a surprise when I was done.  For my last Fit Test I decided to find my highest number for each exercise and beat it.  I pushed myself HARD and the numbers show that.  I did, however, end up throwing up.  Not once, but twice.  It's not my finest moment, but it's the truth.

Altogether I lost 4 lbs. and 7.5 inches.  I actually gained a 1/2 inch on each thigh which is alright with me because it means I built some muscle!  Just imagine what my results could have been if I ate clean and completely cut out drinking!  I've seen people who have lost tons of weight doing this program and it is 80% diet 20% exercise.
My friend recently finished Insanity too and saw some great results.
If I could change one thing about the program it would be showing you how to modify more exercises.  Overall, I enjoyed this workout program and really liked the trainer, Shaun T. He kept it real and kept me motivated from start to finish.

Up next...TurboFire!
