Hi everyone-

We (Grant and Amanda) just stared on Insanity and are on day 5..we really love it and are looking forward to some great results. We are definitely committed, and I will probably be looking for some encouragement once he goes back to work and I want to eat some chocolate. We are committed to our nutrition guide. I have 25 pounds of post baby weight (of two beautiful girls) to get ride of and my husband would love to put on 20 pounds at least.

Looking forward to meeting you all.

Amanda & Grant

Welcome to the boards Amanda and Grant and Happy New Year!

How do you like Insanity so far? Have you done any of the other beachbody programs?
I would like to follow Grant's weight GAIN.. My Fiance' is in the same boat and he's yet to start P90X and he's nervous he will LOSE MORE weight. I'm hoping that it isn't the case!! :eek:

Congrats on the babies! and look forward to getting you know you two better! :D

Warm Regards.

Hey there! Welcome to the Boards. You'll find a lot of great people here that can provide you with some answers to get results.

Along those lines, to gain weight you've got to eat. It's just that simple. The P90X diet is designed as a non-calorie deficient diet, but you might want to add in even more calories if size is the goal.

Hi, thanks for the welcome!!

Tara...we LOVE Insanity so far. We are on Day 8 of both the workout and the nutrition guide. Grant has already gained 5 pounds on a 3200 calorie diet(Take into account though at 6'6 he was only 165) and I have lost 2.5 pounds and 2 inches on my waist (I didn't bother to remeasure the rest of me...that will be on my next fit test a week from now)...Monica had me go down to 1500-1600 calories, instead of the 2000 that the formula told me to do and that has made all the difference. We are pumped!! And although some nights I have no desire to do the workout, by the end I am feeling awesome!!

I also have Turbo Jam, which I used to lose weight after my first pregnancy, but I didn't do the whole program. I will use that probably with Insanity once I am finished.

Looking forward to getting to know you guys better.

thanks for that info Amanda!!! I'll let him know the results of hubby so far! He's only 5'10" and 130 lbs. :eek: i would like for him to gain another 20 lol.. more if it's muscle :D

I love Turbo jam too! I use it with Chalean extreme to get more cardio out of it to burn more fat.

Have a great day!
