Today was my final actual workout for Insanity! I have the last fit test tomorrow but I’m done with actual workouts. I’m glad it ended with my favorite combo of Max Cardio Conditioning and Cardio Abs. Since it was the last workout I should have really push myself but I didn’t. I definitely didn’t slack [...]

Today was my last time doing Max Interval Plyo. I never thought I’d be here at the end of Insanity. I keep saying “only X workouts left…wow!” and things of that ilk. I am sure people are tired of hearing it but I am proud of my accomplishment so there! I didn’t push as hard [...]

Well kids, today was my last time doing Core Cardio & Balance. I’ll be honest, I didn’t push myself that hard today. My body feels very tired and worn out today so I didn’t have a lot to give but I didn’t totally wuss out either. The only move I skipped was power jumps and [...]

Today Max Interval Circuit came up on the calendar again which both makes me happy and not at the same time. On one hand I’m not a huge fan of intervals because I don’t like doing exercises that I don’t like 3 times in each workout. On the other hand, this workout has a lot [...]

This has definitely become one of my favorite workouts in Insanity. I love the burn you get from the two workouts combined and I like that it’s not an interval workout. I skipped the crazy jumping parts of the workout again and sprinted during those parts instead. I’m sure someday when I need to play [...]

After having a cheat day on Sunday my great weigh in was blown with a 2 pound weight gain. I assume it’s water retention from drinking alcohol and eating high sodium foods but it’s a gain nonetheless so I needed to work hard today to get back on track. I committed to each exercise and [...]

The last workout of week 8 in Insanity is Core Cardio & Balance, which is the workout you do during your recovery week. While part of me is happy about that because it’s not an extreme workout, another part of me isn’t so happy about it since I’ve already had a recovery day this week [...]

Today I worked my ass off even more than usual during Max Interval Circuit. I always know when I’ve pushed myself to the limit because I get a headache from the workout. That hasn’t happened very often since I’ve gotten in shape. In fact the last time I remember it happening was during Plyometrics towards [...]

Tonight was Max Cardio Conditioning and Cardio Abs which is actually one of my favorite workout combinations. I really enjoy the exercises with punches and kicks in them during the Max Cardio Conditioning portion. And there’s a lot of ab work but not quite as many planks as some of the other workouts. So, in [...]

Okay so I admit I skipped my workout yesterday. I worked 10 hours and had to go to the grocery store at night but had every intention of working out after I was done with my errands. After I got home I realized I had only eaten 1400 calories for the day so even without [...]
