    I love the warmup. It's the circuit I hate. I did Plyo Cario this morning and I made it all the way thru with a few extra paused to clean up the vomit..HEHE JK. I did have a few extra pauses but I was happy I made it all the way thru. Looking forward to tomorrow.

    Good Morning!

    I gave Plyo Cardio Circuit a test drive this morning. Wow. Makes PlyoX seem like a walk in the park! Thank goodness I've done P90X for a over a year; otherwise those pushup drills would have killed me! :laugh:

    I stretched out with 25 minutes of yoga afterwards. I highly recommend this, by the way. A good stretch is definitely in order after that monster.

    Tomorrow, I'll Dig Deeper with the same workout. I hope I make it.

    That's funny about Plyo X. I was thinking the same thing the other day. When I first did P90X it was so HARD! Maybe Insanity will seem like that next year. Haha ya right :sad: I had my last day of my first week today and it seemed harder today than last time. Oh well, I'm sure there will be days like that. I did Cathe's 4DS shoulders and calves after and then a nice stretch. I agree about the yoga. It would be a great addition to the program.

    BTW Sandy I love your new pictures that you posted :wink: . You look A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Are you one of the those people who has a hard time gaining weight? I just ask because my husband is and he can gain muscle so easily. Come on, what's the story ??? :tongue:

    Have a great day guys!

    I ordered it last week, it should be in today. I just finished my first round of P90X and am looking forward to mixing it up a little before I start a second round of P90X.

    Oh, I hope so!! I only got four hours of sleep last night, so I didn't even give it 100% this morning. Tomorrow, I'll be on track with the calendar and will give it my all (after a good night's sleep, I hope!).

    Ah, thanks! :blushing:

    Yes, I have a super high metabolism and have a very hard time gaining weight, and muscle (especially my upper body) comes very easily. I actually eat around 3000 calories a day just to maintain. I owe a lot of it to P90X. I wasn't afraid to lift heavy in the 8-10 rep range, and I gained a lot of strength & muscle mass because of it.

    I :heart: Tony Horton! I kind of feel like I'm cheating on him with Insanity! :laugh: :tongue:

    Yeah, it's not so much mixing it up as it is being thrown into a blender on high. :laugh:

    That's what I was afraid of! I'll let you know how it goes. I'm going to do the fit test tonight or tomorrow.

    I did the fit test last night, here are my results:

    Switch Kicks - 50
    Power Jacks - 42
    Power Knees - 70
    Power Jumps - 27
    Globe Jumps - 8
    Suicide Jumps - 13
    Push up Jacks - 12 (felt a little uncoordinated with these)
    Plank Obliques - 38

    That was rough! Not too bad for a girl who was a couch potato only 90 days ago (before P90X). Someday I'll be able to keep up with the rest of you, but until then I'll just keep pushing play.

    I've done 5 days on Insanity so far and they have all been intense. I keep putting off Pure Cardio. I have that on Thrusday. Why are the ones I dread the most always on Thursdays? YogaX and Now Pure Cardio. Oh well. I know when I reach the point when I don't have to stop I will have accomplished something.
    I love this.
    I burned 800 calories this morning with Power & Resistance. Whew!

    Good Morning!

    I'm officially on track with the Insanity calendar -- day 2, Plyo Cardio Circuit done. And I followed it up with Rodney Yee's AM Yoga - Forward Bends. Aaaaaaahhhhhhh. :bigsmile:

    I'm going to go sit in a ball in the shower now. :laugh:

    Good morning people :bigsmile: I have a much deserved rest day today and plan on doing some gardening and visiting with my Mom at the lake. Perhaps a hike with the doggies and may take your advice Sandy and throw in some yoga :smile: . It is a beautiful day here in the Yukon. We are having a gorgeous summer :glasses: . Have a great day!
