    Did another 516 with Insanity tonight. Did all the Pure Cardio routine except the last exercise since I physically can't do it. I just fall down on the ground. It is a push-up where as you go down you jump your legs a part and then on the up portion bring them back together. When I do it I just end up on the ground going no where, so I did squat thrusts instead.

    Not too long ago I wouldn't have been able to do a bunch of stuff I do now no problem. I'm sure I will get it eventually, but not yet :smile:

    Lol I think sometimes that the more top heavy you are muscle or fat wise the harder it gets to do some things, last workout I had ot take a few steps back every 3rd or 4th thrust to regain balance, maybe I am just not using enough weight as its hard not to do a small jump at the peak.

    I had a light run session last night. My hammies are still sore from my first two outdoor runs. I'm hoping to work in at least one if not two more outdoor runs this week but with this snow and ice it's looking grim.

    Oh and add another 258 to my total for my quick run last night.

    Well, I got 1002 burned for today. It took two workouts, but I'm glad I got it. I almost stopped my second workout at 467 but then realized a few more minutes and I would have enough for 1000 or more for the day. Now to have something to eat.

    Permission to come aboard? I currently do 60 min of cardio 5 x's a week. I have hit a spot so I kicked in Kettlebell for 20 min 3 x's a week. I have kettlebelled for a couple of years and really enjoy it. Can feel the HR increase while kettlebelling. Any other kettlebell men?

    Love the bells- I took a break from all working out for awhile, but I now am getting back into working out. Man the bells are feeling heavy right now.

    I was disappointed that more people did not get into this, the point guys was to motivate you to work out more, so there are no winners or losers in that respect. Anyhow good showing for those who did submit to it, glad to see you put the effort in guys.

    I apologize for not getting my totals in. I meant to do it yesterday but we have company over and after they left I immediately crashed for the night. Either way, here's my total for the week.

    2603 cals burned...
