My experience with Insanity Max 30 was extremely intimidating at first. I was completely stepping out of my comfort zones. I am NOT a cardio girl at all. I have 2 ribcage deformities called Pectus Carinatum and Pectus Excavatum. So my right lung has like an inch less room than my left in my chest cavity. That being said I get out of breath so fast and it hurts as times, so I never pushed myself cardiovascular wise. But I knew if I wanted to get amazing results it was time to get uncomfortable. So I chose Insanity Max 30: all cardio and body weight exercises. It was HIGH intensity. But I fell completely in love with the program.
Insantiy Max 30 is a 8 week program. You have 5 30 minute workouts a week and a few optional workouts. You have 5 workouts for the first 4 weeks that are hard but not extremely complex moves. Then in the second month it is all the same kind of workouts just taken up a level. Each workout has a modifier that is still hard but takes out the high impact moves and jumping. The meal plan is the Fixate container system.
In this program, my transformation came in the form of mental, cardiovascular, and physical strength. I started this program with a history of being a quitter and the desire to be a finisher. I had NEVER successfully finished a fitness program before this! NEVER. I had been a coach for 2 years and was never able to finish one. So this time around I was not going to be the quitter. I was going to be the badass woman who can do anything she sets her mind to. Let me tell you I had such HUGE mental changes during this program, but I will expand on that in a little bit.
I must say as a kid I had NO cardio vascular strength. My mom tells the story of little Deborah running off the soccer field on her first day crying because she HATED running. Needles to say my exercise career was over till I found swimming in high school. I wasn't amazing but for me I was amazing. I pushed myself and beat myself every day. That was the first time I ever saw my cardiovascular strength improve. Then I started Insanity Max 30 and had my butt handed to me every day of the first week. But I attacked the workouts with a passion and soon I was less out of breath and I was maxing out later and later. Then in the last couple of weeks I found myself doing almost all the advanced moves and doing the jumps. It was amazing to see how much I was able to improve in just 8 short weeks. I became the badass woman I wanted to be at the end of this program.
My physical strength was almost gone when I started this. I had just had baby David 2 months earlier. I spend about 4 to 5 days in bed before and after having him and was on bed rest for about 2 weeks before going to the hospital for a 48 hours labor. Needless to say I had NO muscle strength. But I pushed in this program. I started with the modifiers and I maxed out quickly but I tried more and more. I started barely doing push ups to being excited to do them. I was so mad when we did burpees or football fast feet but at the end I was having the time of my life. I even did some tuck jumps and I felt amazing jumping like that. I got my ab strength back and build my other muscles back to normal. Every day life became easier. David was not so heavy to carry even though he got heavier and heavier.
I told you I would explain more about my mental change. So I had what I call a life change during this program. One of the ladies said this, "When I can't do 1 more, I do 3!" And it just stuck to me!!! First off it encouraged me not to be a quitter but I had the aha moment that I can do so much more than I thought I could. So I applied it in the workout and half the time I didn't even need a break once I pushed past 3 more moves. I then applied it in my life and business. I started becoming unstoppable. I was working crazy hours and getting little sleep but I loved it. I was passionate about life, I did not want to go to bed because I felt so encouraged and strong. I wanted to pursue my dreams will ALL my heart and when it got hard I did 3 more and pressed on. Shaun T's programs are always full of life lessons.
Now I am sure you are ready to see my results and hear about them. I will be honest I lost no weight. I think I gained half a pound. But the pictures speak for themselves I lost a ton of weight and gained even more muscle. I felt amazing after this program; so strong, so healthy, and all around fabulous.
Isn't that crazy!?!?! I felt so fat and so blahh when I started. I had never been that big. I just was miserable in my body and did not recognize myself. Now I feel amazing. I feel strong. I feel like a total badass that is ready to conqueror the world. I would love to help you get the same results as me and plugged into one of my accountability groups. I could not have done all this with out the support of my ladies! Drop your email below and I will reach out to you with more info!
