I looked myself in the mirror and saw that my butt has meshed with my thigh. ![]() ![]() Here is the challenge for anyone who would want to do it too. |

Well that was depressing. I couldn't even finish. I had to stop with only 3 exercises left. My lungs hurt so bad - I could breathe fine, but it wasn't easing. I might try the rest in a bit, but right now, I just feel like crying

Was that for the fit test? You shouldn't have pushed too hard.

That's the sad part - I didn't try and keep up, I did rest, but I did try for the whole minute. It's all the jumping that got me. I still tracked it. Push up jacks were laughable. I could only do one
![]() Well, at least I finished. Normally I wouldn't have even tried to finish. I guess that is one accomplishment. Definitely not looking forward to tomorrow's workout now, though.

I proud of you, nevertheless. Hang in there. The 2nd week will feel better.

Just finished pure cardio. I have thoughts on it for you Bro, but I gotta run now. I won't be home until this afternoon or later. I'll post then. Go workout, get your energy on, then enjoy your Saturday!

No worries! I am not working out until later, but I already have my workout clothes on. I just have too many things that I need to get done first.
I am a little sore today, but in a muscle I don't use very often. I more associate it with cramps than working out - lol

Day 2 - Plylometric Cardio Circuit. Seeing how bad I did yesterday, I really procrastinated. Bad enough that I was watching Spalash (horrible tv show) and hand washing dishes. I pulled up my big girl panties and finally started. Surprise, surprise, I had to stop with 20 minutes left. I felt like I was gonna hurl. It was so bad that I contemplated helping myself a long. I had to decide whether to keep going or call it good and just trying again tomorrow. I really didn't want to do the same workout tomorrow, so I started again and did what I could (more than I thought, but still not all). I CANNOT do a damn push up to save my life. I ended up finishing the whole DVD.
Note to self - eating 1.5 hours before working out is too soon. And wear the small sports bras or the girls will be growing new stretch marks with all the jumping! Now, I am off to collapse into a child's pose for a while. I can't believe I agreed to do this for a month!!

Good job! That's all is need, Bro. Seriously. I know it's scary; I still remember the feeling. And yes, eating 1.5 hrs. before doing Insanity wasn't a good idea. As for push-ups, be on your knees rather than toes, and go down as much as you could handle. If you don't feel your triceps working, then you need to go down lower. Otherwise don't go down low. Do little to build up your muscles. It took me a couple of weeks into the program at first to attempt the push-up on my toes. This is the third time I'm doing Insanity in case you didn't know.
Pure cardio is going to kill you. This is my tip. When you feel too tired or heart beating too fast, or light headed in my case, stop that exercise and walk back and forth. Let your heart rest and when the next exercise comes up, continue. I think each exercise is a minute or 30 seconds. Do your best, rest when you need it. If you notice, the people in the dvd rest too. If they rest, then it's perfectly okay for you to do the same. |
