    Week 1 Day 2: Plyometric Cardio Circuit

    I actually survived better than I thought I would! I think I had it so built up in my head that I thought it actually might kill me and then the reality didn't seem so bad :) Don't get me wrong, I was in a heap on the floor by the middle of it, I did nowhere near the number of reps they did, and my heart rate monitor still nearly exploded, but I did it!

    HRM said I burned a little over 500 calories - not bad for a 40 minute period that included two rounds of stretching!

    I also did okay. They were going to fast when it came to the last circuit. The Push-Ups and all that. I was trying to go at my own pace but it was just making me mad LOL. I did the best I could though. WE MADE IT THROUGH DAY 2! Wooooo! I'm already sore as hell. I wish I had a HRM it would be nice knowing exactly how many calories I've burned.

    Completed the day 2 workout earlier this afternoon. I agree with dcgirl and shalla about thinking it would be way harder than it was (even though it was still hard)! The last circuit really killed me as Shalla said because they were going so fast and it was hard to keep up. I took a couple of breaks and modified a few things but all in all I think it went pretty well. As expected, I was on the floor by the end of it! Ready for day 3 tomorrow!

    Just did Plyo, ahhh thank God for the stretching portion because that cardio was no joke. Hope to get better as I go. (My poor muscles don't know what to do at this point)

    Good job everyone...Keep going and keep logging!

    Yeah, I thought the soreness would kick in later tonight or tomorrow.. Boy was I wrong LOL. Immediately after the workout my legs and upper back muscles were starting to hurt. Has anyone took a sneak peak at tomorrows workout? I just want an idea of what were doing but I don't feel like going to the living room and popping it in.. LOL #lazymood.:tongue:

    I feel you. Day 3 Complete! It was intense. He wasn't kidding when he said you will be in a pool of your own sweat. I was sweating like a pig. Sweat all over me, sweat all over the floor and my mat. It was crazy. Can't wait for the Recovery workout tomorrow. I did the best I could. My hip flex er on my left side hurts. It hurts to lift my legs up but it is what it is. Anyways, how did you guys do?

    Week 1 Day 3: Cardio Power and Resistance

    Am I the only one who thinks those "stretches" are not really so much of a break? I ended up sitting down on the floor and doing my own thing after my muscles couldn't balance me anymore :) I think I need to start doing yoga...

    Just finished Day 3!! Wow that last circuit with all the hurdle jumps and globe jumps was killer! I could barely do the cool down stretches for how tired my legs were. I also need to figure out that triceps move...I didn't understand how to make my elbows bend like they did :P

    Anyway...another workout done and one day closer to completing Insanity! Good job guys!!

    I was so tired during that part that when I looked at what we were doing I was like whatever LOL. I tried to do one and I just could not get my hips up.
