It's a tough program, but as long as you listen to your body and don't overdo it, you'll be just fine. Also, don't try to keep up with the people in the video if you start to struggle. They've all been through the program already, so even though you can tell they are still working, they have more experience than you'll have your first time through. Make sure that you follow the nutrition guide that came with the program, too. You have to eat right to have the energy for the workouts, and also to get the best results. Don't be afraid to eat more protein than you've probably eaten in the past - you're body will need it, believe me! Head on over to http://beachbodycoach.com/sunnyde and get signed up with Shanna as your free Fitness Coach (just click the "Join" button). That way we'll both be sure to keep you in the loop moving forward as we continue to share how to get the most out of programs like Insanity, P90X, etc. Looking forward to being in your corner, Kerri! :) p.s. - If you're on Facebook, be sure to look us both up there as well: http://www.facebook.com/shannapotts http://www.facebook.com/aaronpotts1 Hey, Kerri! :)

No, you do not need a partner to do Insanity. If you have one - then great, but you can do it and get the great results with nothing but yourself and your DVD player! :) Be sure to log your workouts into the WOWY Online Supergym for accountability and the daily prize giveaways: http://www.fitnessdestinations.com/beachbodycommunity.php Sounds like a stellar opportunity to prove to him what’s possible when you apply yourself, Allie!

I am 5'6 about 148 pounds. Im looking to lose 20 pounds. My question is do you need a partner to help you through the program? I would love my boyfriend to do insanity but he has a negative attitude and just says, "i know I cant do it". Thanks!! Congrats on all of your hard work! I am 5’6 about 148 pounds.

By the end of Month 1, you should definitely be seeing some results if your nutrition is on track. You are seeing some physical results (awesome!), and 3 lbs of weight loss is a step in the right direction. I would expect that your nutrition probably needs to be fine-tuned a bit, so give me an update and some details on your daily nutrition and we'll go from there. :) Lulu – I’m a bit late getting in a response to your comment, so please do give me an update so I can help you make sure you’re getting the most out of the program.

In the beginning, though, just take it easy and listen to your body. Don't try to do as many repetitions as they do in the videos and/or trying to do the exercises as perfectly/intensely as they do in the videos. Just do YOUR very best - whatever that is for you - and you'll see great results from Insanity! Peter – Insanity will give you endurance like you’ve probably never had before in your life!

I'm really excited to give it my all. I'm in decent shape, but I think that endurance has been a weakness for me. What advice do you have for my situation? I’m 21, and just came across this.

I've noticed my legs, arms and upper ab area tone up a little but, to be honest i expected more results by now. I started doing insanity to be thinner but also just overall fit. My goal is to lose 10-15 pounds. I've only lost about 3, any thoughts?

Insanity is a tough routine that you would have a hard time with if your jaw is hurting. I recently got some work done myself, so I can attest to that 100%. As far as you feeling that you won't get results if you tire too easily, the trick is to just always do YOUR best - whatever that is. As long as you TRULY give your very best to every single workout, and you stick to the nutritional guidelines that the program gives you, you'll get results. Just back off on intensity rather than cutting short any of the workouts. If you work really hard for 10 minutes, but then have to quit, you won't get as much out of it than if you finished the entire workout, but at a lower intensity level. Be sure to sign up for free Coaching if you haven't already, and we will be more than happy to help you as you go through the program. You can do this, Gianina - don't sell yourself short!
