Love insanity! Well after the first week wasn't as sore as expected , looking forward to week 2

I would love to join your group! I plan on doing my fit test tomorrow (Having Sundays be my day 1). I've had the videos for months, and I have done the videos a few time but nothing regularly. I'm looking forward to starting and finishing!

Hey all I'm also doing insanity I'm currently on day 4 however I did the full first month and the recovery week before Christmas then took a break for christmas. I decided to redo the first month as I've only just been able to do push ups properly! To help motivate you this is how my third fit test went compared to my first:

Switch kicks - 86 (first test was 64)
Power Jacks - 49 (first test was 28)
Power knee - 80 (64)
Power jump - 30 (24)
Globe jumps - 31 (33 - I've decreased going to work on this!)
Suicide jumps - 12 (12 - struggling to speed these up any tips?)
Push-up Jacks - 10 (4ish - couldn't do push-ups at all when I first started)
Low Plank oblique - 55 (35)

The fit test really helps to keep you motivated and I feel so much more energised just generally throughout the day. To help with fitness I've also been doing the Do You Yoga 30 day challenge which is roughly 10-20 minutes of yoga a day which is free and has also helped me build up strength! Let me know how you all get on with insanity!

Almost done with week two - just need to do Cardio Abs, then I am onto my second fit test. I am having some slight doubts if I will actually improve my numbers, but it is probably due to a lack of quality sleep. Tuesday I will be doing my Fit Test!

- Just wanted to share as well, that I have lost about 4lbs in the last two weeks. I am glad this busted through that plateau! I was thrilled to get on the scale for it to be at 163lbs, 13 MORE POUNDS TO GOAL of 100LBS LOST! Maybe insanity will be the program to get me there!

2nd fit test results:
Switch kicks 53- +13
- power jacks 40 +16
- power knees 89 +35
- power jumps 32 +21
- globe jumps 8 +4
- suicide jumps 11 +4
- push up jacks 25 +12
- low planks obliques 35 +5

Feel awesome!

I finished my fit test today, kind of falling behind schedule but I should be done month one by the end of January!

Here are my results

fit test 1 (fit test 2)
SK - 50 (60)
PJ - 30 (39)
PK - 59 (90)
PJu - 22 (28)
GJ - 6 (7)
SJ - 11 (14)
PUJ - 3 (12)!!!
LPO - 5 (20)!!!

I am super excited for the difference in the Push-up jack and the low plank oblique. I remember first doing it, and could hardly even hold myself up!! I am kind of surprised that those 2 exercises were the biggest difference.

I have found that when I do the low plank oblique exercise, my lower back really feels it (in a good way!)

I have also lost another lb since the 13th. My recovery time has improved, and if it is a good day - I can do the entire workout now from beginning to end.

Week 3 done! Did plyometric circuit today which still leaves me more exhausted than any of the other workouts. However my fitness has improved so that I can now complete the level 1 drills in full at least a few times each circuit

I started Jan 5th. Still at it too.

I am just marinating in my sweat from pure cardio week 4! I find the fatigue is really setting it though, getting bored of the workouts/dreading them. I struggled to get through this one today for sure! I couldnt even do the suicide jumps!

I dont know, maybe an off day - though I realize my protein intake could be better, which may be what is contributing to this lack of ability to do these workouts. I felt like I wanted to keep working out (mentally) but my body was just not up to it today! I have been doing the cardio abs on wednesdays on the schedule, or even my saturdays.

Just started today. Couldn't wait for Monday so my rest days will be Saturday.
SK - 56
PJ - 42
PK - 74
PJu - 23
SJu - 9
SJa - 11
PUJ - 0!!! Did lady style only 16
LPO - 30

Excited and super scared for day 2 tomorrow
