Starting crazy Insanity P90X Asylum FB ZWOW hybrid Apr 1

I really need my head examined.

Here's my thing.

Money is tight. Rural area. No affordable gyms in the neighbourhood. I have DVD's. I have internet access.

I am, tomorrow, signing up for a women's league soccer for the summer. Apparently they have enough women for 2 teams!

That's big news, people.

SO! DVD's.

I have done P90X a few times, Insanity as well for 2 rounds-both separately. I have found that Insanity ups my endurance and resting HR, but by itself does not give me the strength I need. P90X, gives me the strength (I'm in need of heavier weights!), but only Plyo is challenging anymore *whining*:sad:
Asylum I haven't done at all according to the schedule. Just a few dvd's here and there as part of a doubles routine during March Break.

I keep coming back to Zuzka and her ZWOW's (google it!), and recently discovered fitnessblender.com - both free, comprehensive workouts in some different ways, but I love them both!

So I tried to put in all my faves, and left out the ones I'm not so keen on. Kept in Yoga, and the recovery ones even though I'm not a slow-down kind of person and really get impatient with them, I realize that they are important to keep the body functioning.

My plan: as crazy as it is looks a little like this-
3 weeks of alternating ST and cardio
1 week of alternating FB and ZWOW with Yoga, or Insanity recovery on ZWOW days (ZWOW's are approx 20 min long and INTENSE)
then do it all again.
PLUS!!! I get a sticker for each scheduled workout completed!:flowerforyou:

I have this all in a little table I made up, along with times it takes for each one and calories burned so I will be using my HRM. The first time I made the table, I forgot the recovery weeks, so I went back and added them in. My schedule went from 14 weeks to 19 weeks!:noway:

But I have a plan. I will follow my schedule as best I can until the end of June (3 months/13 weeks) if at the end of that time I need a break, I'll take it. If I'm doing OK, I'll keep going. If I follow the whole schedule, I would finish the end of the second weekend in August. 4.5 months. Oy.
I will listen to my body and if it is telling me to stop or slow down, I will listen.

I am not sure how I will feel about missing/skipping a workout, but I will ponder this. Since soccer will be once a week after the May 24, it will change my schedule slightly, but not a lot.

So *takes a deep breath* it's time to get ready.
New weights this week. I'm going to get some 20lb dumbbells and look around for others, too.
Tomorrow is my last day of recovery for P90X-last day.

Now that my next 3+ months are planned out fitness wise, it's time to do some more changes to my food intake. Yeast and flour and eggs are all bad, and ice cream, too. I know this. I just have to act on it.
