    I'll be walking 3 miles at lunchtime, Insanity (cardio circuit) at 5 pm and bike 15 miles after that. Tomorrow is a day off. I was supposed to rest on Tuesday, but i switched to Friday instead. I'm having a blast with Shaun T.

    Sing, that is a lot of cardio in one day!!! Have you gone mad??? :laugh: :laugh: :flowerforyou:

    I love Shaun T. His personality is great in Insanity! And he's easy on the eyes. :tongue:
    Jess - I've got to second that one :love:

    Alf, you know me very well...so you know that I am quite mad!!! Actually, on the day before my "rest" day, I like to push myself really hard. That way I don't feel guilty about doind nothing on my rest day. Plus I'm eating at a Mexican restaurant tomorrow night. I know that I will eat some bad stuff!

    Ok, here's a question for all you Insanity fans. I am just about done with Chalean Extreme and trying to decide what my next workout will be. I know many of you are P90X grads. I am contemplating going to that or Insanity. Any advice on that? From what I understand Chalean Extreme and P90X are similar, but I know P90X are about double in workout time and I'm sure more intense too. What do you think would be a good one to transition to??

    I did ChaLean at the beginning of the year and loved it! I wouldn't say that P90X and ChaLean are similar, but they are weight training. Insanity is mainly cardio. If you're looking for weight training, go w/ ChaLean. They are really great workouts. I lost 8# and a lot of inches in the lower body using them.

    Let me know if you have any questions!! :bigsmile:

    Thanks Jess! I'm glad someone out there has done P90X and ChaLean and can chime in! I think Insanity is the way to go because I need more cardio!

    No problem! They are both great programs! I started off w/ P90X about 3 yrs ago and have done TJ, HHA, P90 Masters, Slim Series, and now ChaLean and Insanity. P90X and ChaLean are my favs so far... but Insanity has just begun. :laugh:

    I think you can do them in a pretty small space, if nothing else you can jump higher and run in place faster. :bigsmile:

    Hey everyone. Sorry I've been MIA. Started back to work after my month of vacation and been real busy. Plus I started my own Insanity Thread on BB.com Did Pur Cardio this morning and didn't have to stop this time. I made it all the way thru. That one is Bananas.
    I've eaten clean all week. It feels good. Keep pressing play.

    Hey Michael! Nice to have you back!!

    Cardio Power & Resistance + Yoga for me this morning. I was a sweaty mess when I was done! Oh, and here's something funny. When we do the moving pushups, I do the side-to-side pushups like in P90X, so I'm doing one wide, one heart-to-heart, one wide, and repeat over and over. Crazy how I'm making it harder already! :bigsmile:

    Oh yeah, will I was doing P90X before it was even invented... ROFLMAO...

    Way to bring it ladies. I 'm starting to like the cardio more than the resistance.

    Also mowed the lawn, took the kids to the pool, and then walked/ biked w/ my dd's tonight. Oh, and did Ab Ripper X. :laugh:

    Today is Friday, did it arrive? Do you mind telling me what you had to pay for it? There is one listed on ebay for I think $120.00. I LOVE hard workouts and i think this would be great because you use body weight intead of having to have gym equipment. Thanks and have a good weekend!!

    Honestly, you never know what you're going to get unless you buy from Beachbody or a Beachbody Coach (like me, Jess, Laura). Buying from ebay or Amazon leads the way to discs that don't work, no documentation, no coach, etc. You're better off buying from one of us and getting our help along with it! :drinker:

    OK, the first time I didn't do Insanity. But... I ran a hilly 6.5 miles this morning w/ my buddies, then did some pushups in the front yard. :laugh: Gorgeous day! Burned over 700 cals... which is more than double what I normally burn w/ Insanity so I am not slackin'. :laugh:

    Pure Cardio with Cardio Abs done. In my opinion ARX is harder than Cardio Abs, just my opinion.

    Off to my daughter's cheer practice...I run laps while she's practicing.
