If I could go back, the biggest change I would make would be eating more nutrient-rich foods like fruit, vegetables and protein. I’m not saying I should have dieted cutting calories can mess with milk supply. Now, being home all day, with food always available, and of course having the breastfeeding hormones constantly triggering hunger, makes it more difficult to choose healthy foods 100% of the time.
#Insanity workout before and after female full#
The last time I did Insanity, I was a student and working full time, and I was not breastfeeding. I had to throw in some of these more realistic, relaxed poses to show you what I look like not flexing and make it more obvious that I still have a bit of a postpartum pooch on my lower stomach and muffin top. Honestly not a whole lot of difference there, which is surprising considering all the squats and lunges. Since I was already dripping with sweat and exhausted by that point, I figured I could allow for a pass.īooty: I think my bum might be slightly smaller but perkier after doing Insanity. On the schedule, you are supposed to do the 16 minute “Cardio Abs” video about once a week after doing the full 40-60 minute workout for that day. And I even skipped most of the “ab” workouts. That’s the area where I usually notice a difference first.Ībs: My abs were the area where I saw the most overall improvement. Legs: I saw more definition in my legs after Insanity, but I believe it is more due to overall decrease in body fat percentage than muscle growth.Ĭhest and Back: Insanity is EXCELLENT for toning the back and chest, especially the back. There are a lot of pushup and plank exercises in Insanity, but apparently those don’t yield the same results as weight lifting. Insanity includes only bodyweight exercises, while Jillian Michaels utilizes dumbbells. (You’re like, “Yeah… we know.”) Before:Īrms: If you look closely, you can see that I’ve actually lost some definition in my arms. I tried to take several different angles so that not every shot was equally flattering. The lighting in my after pictures is definitely much better than in the before, which might seem deceiving. ? Sorry about the differences in lighting. My before pictures for Insanity are the same as my after pictures for Ripped in 30, because I started Insanity right after Ripped in 30. I only recommend products I actually own and love. I did not follow any special diet and honestly did not eat very healthy this time through, but I still got decent results.Īffiliate Disclosure: I recieve a small commission for purchases made through the product links in this post.

It really is crazy hard, and there’s no way you WON’T get results if you follow through with it.

They aren’t kidding when they say it’s insanity. Since I was still trying to get my core muscles back after having a baby, Insanity was the first exercise program to come to mind. I’ve done the program before, years ago, and had awesome results. After I finished Ripped in 30 by Jillian Michaels (check out my results HERE), I decided to do “the hardest workout ever put on DVD”… Insanity by Beachbody.
