Insanity: The Ultimate Cardio Workout and Fitness DVD Program  Rating: Rating:  - InsantiyI bought the set and only 2 disc out of the 11 would even play. So I was unable to do the work out at all. Rating:  - it does work, if followed conscientously..i've been a runner for over 10 years, and wanted to add a little core and upper body strength for a change during this past winter, as i was mostly confined indoors. i have to be honest that i was already in pretty good shape, i'm not an ultra marathoner but would do a 15 mile run about once a week or every other week. this program was horribly tough. as a woman, my body actually skipped a cycle while i was doing it. now that i've finished and eased up on it (use it mainly for maintenance purposes), my body has resumed its normal pre Shaun T cycles. the most difference i've seen is definitely in my upper arms/shoulders area. coincidentally i was away from my husband for a few months while following this program for work reasons. when he saw me he was actually taken aback and told me that my shoulders and upper arms are really pronounced. i guess i couldn't tell the difference; i saw myself every day. but he has since been inspired to be a Shaun T fan. Rating: - Best Workout Ever!!!"Insane" is an understatement when it comes to describe this workout. Get ready to sweat and work every part of your body!!! First week is the hardest because you will be really sore. I do recommend the recovery drink after the workout. It does help with the sore muscles and you will feel better the next day after the workout. Shaun T will keep you motivated. Insanity is never boring! This workout will push you to the limit, but it will absolutely get you in good shape. "Dig deeper" people!!!!! Rating:  - It's insane alright.No, I was not in awesome or even great shape when I started this, like most people who seem into this workout. And I should mention I am only on Week 3, but the results are AMAZING, already. What I love about INSANITY is that I really feel like I have accomplished something at the end of each workout. I see the results in my body (I take a photo of myself at the beginning of each week as a reminder). The important things to know are: 1) it's okay to modify the exercise (assuming you are familiar with the techniques) if you don't quite have the physical strength yet, 2) knowing some good breathing techniques will help you immensely, because this will really push you to the limit, 3) Go at your own pace, because whatever it is, it will still give you results, 4)you absolutely must be good to your body...no hard landings. I see the most dramatic change so far in my core. Everything is stronger, tighter. I think you need to be able to do a boot camp style workout in order to be able to do this successfully. I took one at my local gym before starting this and I am really glad I did because this is way more intense. In addition to the physical changes, I have to say there is an emotional boost to doing this. I feel awesome about how much I have improved already, and just how I am doing something that makes me really sweat. My only, paltry gripe is that I wish the meal plan had some on the go style options, because I am a grad student and I have to eat on the go a lot.
