Day 38: Max Cardio Conditioning. Done 😳💪
Wow this was tough! I did every move though (albeit not a pace with every one else 🙈) and only the floor work (as per) got the better of me 😬😖I really enjoy the swinging jumping moves - diamond jumps, those leg swing jump moves 🤣 it's nice to have momentum help!
I'm looking forward to the recovery workout tomorrow, but I have a suspicion that Max recovery may not be as nice as the month one recovery routine 🤔😂 time will tell!2 -
Day 39: Max Recovery. Done 💪
Oh this is the first routine Ive felt disappointed and frustrated 😕 I was really struggling to keep up (it was so quick moving through the first moves) and I was also really struggling do a lot of the floor work - trying to turn around in my head by thinking of the progress I can make on this one. Jeez those side holds 😳 and so many push ups 😵 on the plus, I managed all of the leg and ab moves 🔥
Another day down 👍 I have this one in my sights to do loads better next week!1 -
You've smashed so.many of the others, it's to be expected that occasionally you'll have an off day. Don't let it faze you. You'll ace it next time. 🙂1

Thanks @skinnyrev2b yeah the recovery one is defo a work in progress, I need to up my push up game! I will really need to focus on this next week 😬💪 I will conquer it!!1 -
Day 40: Max Interval Circuit. Done 💪
Omg I was an absolute mess after this earlier this morning 😂👍 hence the late post - I was running so late for work after trying to recover 😅
I had a naughty night of eats last night so this mornings workout was powered by popcorn and profiteroles 🤣🤤 But I smashed it! I felt like I was able to push through so many of the circuits today 💪 I think I was mindful of burning off last night indulgences - it's been a stressful week, it was nice to enjoy a couple of cravings and not feel guilty because I know I was back on it today 💥 Day 40 done, wow! I think this circuit will be a favourite, I really enjoyed feeling bad as# on the punches and jumps 😂 Soooo glad it's Friday and looking forward to getting a rest this weekend! Happy Friday everyone!0 -
Ha ha! Awesome! I've heard others say an overindulgence the previous night actually leads to killer workout results the next day!1

Hi @DrMamacitaMD2022 😊
I would highly recommend the insanity program! I'll not lie, it is very tough and there are more days than not that I could see it far enough 🤣 but if you commit to pressing play even on 'those' days you'll reep the benefits! I feel so much fitter, healthier and happier.
I have lost weight, but you have to concentrate on your deficits and be patient, it happens but more than weight loss, my body shape has changed - everything tightens, my tummy, arms, thighs have lost crazy inches. You'll not be disappointed if you are committed, eating as healthy as you can (I've had days where I've indulged but got back on it and not distroyed my hard work just because of one meal, snack or bad day) and just press play. Posting on MFP has been keeping me accountable and other members advice and comments have really spurred me on - thanks guys ❤️ Good luck with it and remember to dig deeper 😉🤗1 -
Day 41: Max Interval Plyo. Done 💪
Oh I was tired today BUT I pressed play! I gave my all and I targeted those dreaded level three drills 😬 My strategy was to think as I was doing the push ups 'I LOVE push ups' 🤣🙈 It worked! I managed all the first 16 sets and then ten of each of the second sets 💪👍 I even managed more of the side push ups. A very successful workout (even without the profiteroles 🤣) and I'm very glad I got it done! Have a great Saturday everyone 😊0 -

Aww nice, thanks @skinnyrev2b Well done for keeping going! We've got this!! 💪👍👍1 -
Day 42: Rest day 😊👍👍 Loving the recharge today and ready to bring it tomorrow 💪 Hope everyone is having a nice Sunday!0

Day 43: Max Cardio Conditioning. Done 💪
Ahh my head was in it today, but my body was soooo sluggish! My muscles maybe enjoyed the day off too much 🤣 I gave it my all, but I kept running out of steam 😬 I'm sure I'll be back to full power tomorrow so I'm not going to get disheartened. Week two of Month two under way 👍😁
Anyone else get this sluggish problem after a rest day?1 -
Well done for pressing play. Not sure if it's related to rest days, but yeah, certainly have sluggish days - due to quality of sleep, quality of food, stress levels and how rested my muscles are from previous workouts.0

🤔 Yeah maybe wasn't as rested as I thought! Ack well, tomorrow is another day 😊1 -
Day 44: Max Interval Circuit. Done 💪
Smashed it today 😁🙌 Really improving on my floor work on this one, I can almost manage the full sets of 'full body drills' and I did tuck jumps today instead of the power jumps I'd been sticking to - 🤣 It felt easier so bonus!
Great workout this morning 👍👍1 -
Hurray for smashing it! Go girl!1
-
Day 45: Max Interval Plyo. Done 💪
Oh I gave it my all today 😅 The dreaded level three drills got the best of me 🙈 first set of 16 then down to 5 on the second, which is an improvement but the other circuits however, I never made my first or second marks 😤 My arms are my weakness 💪🤣
The rest of the workout was fab, I really pushed and thought I might be struggling today too after deciding I had enough energy left last night to go for a run 🏃♀️😱 Definitely fitter 👍👍😄
Very good, surprising energetic workout this morning! Happy Wednesday 😊1 -
That's brilliant! And after a run too! Wow!1

Day 46: Do over to tomorrow due to shoulder niggles 😖
I felt a niggle last night and it's still niggling this morning 🙄 Im determined to target those recovery push ups, so deciding to rest today and go for it tomorrow. Ack my stupid arms 🙄💪 I'll be back on form tomorrow I'm sure!

Day 46: Max Recovery. Done 💪
Well my shoulders were burning but held up 🔥 I really pushed myself this morning and I think I managed more 🎉! I still struggled with the pace of the start of this routine but I am noticing improvements albeit small! Other than the push ups (and those side holds 😬🙈) I managed the rest 👍👍 I have one eye on tomorrow and ready for my abs to getting a kicking with Max Cardio Conditioning and Max Cardio Abs 😱😬 Let's do this! Happy Friday everyone 😊0 -
Nice! Just make sure you don't push your shoulder too much :-)0

Day 47: Max Cardio Conditioning and insane Abs. Done 😳😅
Today was one of 'those' days 🤣 my brain was like 'how can I get out of this' 😵 BUT I pressed play and went for it ▶️💪
I've noticed feeling drained this week and my form has been suffering, but I'm convinced it's my diet, I didn't meal prep and it's gone to pot diet wise this week, so today is a reset day for me and I'm getting onto meal prep today.
I pushed big time this morning on Max Cardio Conditioning and was wrecked by the end of it but I was not done! I pushed play on Insane Abs and was weirdly enjoying the first set, slow jumps but then Shaun announces 'OK so we're going to do that again' 😳 eh! Oh man 🤣 My' C sit' sets need major work but over all I'm just so pleased I actually got going this morning and my shoulder is feeling loads better! Looking forward to prepping better fuel for my next workout, my favourite, Max Interval Circuit 😅👍👍 Have a great day everyone 😊1 -

Thanks @skinnyrev2b it's feeling loads better today. I think I've hurt them with rubbish form this week, thankfully today is better and really focusing on protecting myself with proper form. I hope you are back to full health too!0 -
Awesome stuff! My achy arm is finally, well, not! So I'm back on it tomorrow (overslept today so feeling tired and sicky). I have at least been walking every day, so that's something.0

What a shame, I hope you get back to full health soon. I always get so frustrated when injuries / sickness get in the way. It's good you've been able to get walking, I hope tomorrow is better for you!0 -
Day 48: Max Interval Circuit. Done 💪
Best workout yet 👍 I smashed it today 😅 I managed EVERYTHING! 😱💥 Floor work, tuck jumps, all sets 🤯 I'm thinking I need to go into every workout thinking 'this is my favourite' because I've always done well on this one because it is my favourite 🤔
Tomorrow is supposed to be my rest day but I'm going to do my fit test because of the extra rest day this week with my shoulder niggle. I'm excited but also a bit scared of the numbers I need to beat 😬 it's on!0 -
Ha ha! Excellent!
By your own admission then, you should go in to tomorrow saying "I love fitness test day, it's my favourite!"
