My wife went through the insanity program once, as did I. I was also doing some other training, but I cut back to focus on insanity. It's a good workout, but yes, it's hard on your knees, and tbh, it really is lacking in strength training. I actually lost a fair bit of strength through my upper body and particular my back when I went through the program. I got really adept at jumping up and down though.My friends at a major university hospital told me that their department chairman posted a video showing off muscular torso and abs after he got ripped from doing Insanity. I just saw the video and the results are very impressive. I tried doing Insanity but it is too tough on my knees.
