Before I started doing Insanity I would do a 7km run on a Sunday and about a 4km run on a Wednesday. I'd always be sore the next day with muscle aches and very tight hamstrings.
I don't think Insanity compares to a 7km run in terms of stamina or length of exercise, but you are getting the intensity. Running is about 70 minutes over a week. Insanity is 5 x 30 minute intense sessions plus 1 session stretching. So I would still expect to have my muscles aching afterwards.
I would definitely say now that I am not suffering from as many aches and muscle fatigue using the recovery shake as I would be if I was not using it. I'm definitely going to keep on using it because I believe it is helping my muscles recover in time for the next work out.
