Insanity Round 2 starts Sept 24

I started Insanity on Monday. I started it a few weeks ago but picked up an injury while running. So vie had a couple of weeks of rest and I am pumped to complete it this time.

Pure Cardio today kicked my *kitten* but I managed it. Looking forward to Plyo card tomorrow as it means its the end of the week!!

I do the exercise in the evening. I spend all day giving myself an excuse not to do it, so as soon as I get in from work I put my workout clothes on. As soon as the kids are in bed I put the dvd on. I feel so good about myself when I've finished. I never thought I would be able to do such a demanding workout so I'm really proud of myself and I'm determined to get to the end.

Pure Cardio is one tough mofo workout...that is until you meet Max Cardio Conditioning in month 2! :sad:

I'm looking forward to Plyo tomorrow for the same reason. I wish I could say the workouts get easier as you do them more and more but it's totally not true. However, I know my endurance has increased and I'm able to hang in for a lot longer then when I started. Keep at it. I love your determination!

BTW if you bought your program from Beachbody you can send in your results and before/after pictures to earn a free tee shirt. I just got mine in the mail today and I can't wait to take pictures wearing it. I'm so proud of myself for actually finishing the entire program!

Week 1 Day 7 REST DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gonna enjoy my day off from Insanity and watch football. GO GIANTS!

Week 2 Day 1 Cardio Power & Resistance

Stayed up too late and drank a bit too much wine last night (thanks to a sucky NYG game) so getting through today's workout was tough. Tomorrow will be a better effort.

Week 2 Day 3 Plyo Cardio Circuit

The sweat was dripping into my eyes by the time I got to the final cooldown. I worked hard today and feel great!

DGrayaon - hope you feel better soon!

Week 2 Day 4 Cardio Recovery

I needed this after going hard yesterday! My legs and hip flexors are burning

DGrayaon - don't push too hard if you're body is telling you it needs rest. Colds suck and sometimes working out doesn't do anything more than 1) tire you out and 2) make you feel worse. On the other hand if your body is telling you to get the h*ll up and move then you probably need to listen! Hope you're feeling better today!

Nope I wasn't able to complete it! Did some and took the dog out for a walk to get some fresh air which helped.

Proud of you for listening to your body instead of fighting your way through it. Drink plenty of fluids and for pete's sake get some rest!!! :bigsmile:

Week 2 Day 6 Pure Cardio & Cardio Abs

All I'm going to say is OWWWWW and now I'm starving! Off to prepare a protein focused breakfast so I can get my nutrition plan off to a good start. Enjoy Saturday y'all!
