Glad the heat and humidity has finally gone away. I was able to bust out a 5 mile run at a 6:38 pace. Hopefully I can get a few more of those in before the cold weather comes.

Best of luck, let us know how it goes. I got in a good groove of running, but then u got a cold and when I was about to get back, I slipped on the ice real hard Sunday. Left arm and hip were very sore. Been out for 3 weeks with the colt and soreness. Going to give it a try tonight. Do a light two mile jog.

Good job and keep up the good work! I did Insanity for about six weeks, so I finished the first part, the break week and just into the second month. I lost about seven pounds and got into good cardiovascular shape. I stopped early because my body got too beat up from the workouts. Five, six days a week the workouts are very hard on the joints, so be careful.

Insanity is great but I found a lot of success using Insanity as a hybrid with P90X. I replaced the P90X cardio workouts with Insanity. The mix between the two programs kept my body guessing.

Right now I'm actually alternating Focus T25 (a 25 minute version of Insanity) with DDP Yoga. I like how these workouts are easy on the joints.

The wife and I bought T25. It's pretty awesome, by the maker of Insanity. Workout is only 25 minutes, but it kicks your butt! Anyone else try T25?

I've been back at the pool the last two weeks. Will argue there isn't s better workout out there. Damn pool kicks my Butt!

Insanity works great for weight loss, if you eat right as well

Jim Stoppani's workouts are the best and his supplements are unmatched in quality. He will break down the science behind every supplement he releases. No proprietary blends and proper dosing of ingredients. Do yourselves a favor and look him up.

I used to run until it started to become hard on my knees and ankles. I quit running and gained weight. I bought a bike and that has been fun and a lot easier on my body. I have a speed I like to maintain to get my heart rate up and have some benefit. The goal is to match what I was doing while running.

 

The positive are that my joints feel good, but it is hard to ride in the winter. Stationary bikes bore me and I lose interest. I can't wait for Spring!
