Month #2 Insanity Program

Now I can see that this program is for the insane oriented.  Month #2 is very different than month #1.  Everything appears to have become more challenging, (doubled workout time), more twisted (new body challenges), and more intense.  But being the twisted-insane human being that I am–I love it.  Personally, I am approaching the program…

Finishing Up The First Month Of The Insanity Program

The program lets you repeat many of the “sessions” and as the weeks go by, they do become easier and so you can push yourself harder.  The week coming up is sort of a breather week and then moving on to the next layer of intensity.  I tried it out in my room in Northern…

Day 10,11,12 IP

Day 9 IP
