Insanity Week 5 Day 6: June 24-30, 2013

Day 6: I was suppose to do Max Plyo Cardio today but, I ran a 5k in 35:11 minutes and burned 485 calories, so I am happy with that. I will also play kick ball and baseball in tonight's family reunion, which will add some more cardio to my day. Tomorrow is my day off from everything, so have fun!!

Insanity Week 5 Day 5: June 24-30, 2013

Day 5- Max Interval Circuit- ok, it was AWESOME!!! I had a lot of energy and I did my best trying to keep up with Shawn T and his team. I am excited on how my fitness level has improved so much.

For those of you that are following me and know about how much I am struggling to lose weight, know that I have not lost ANYTHING yet. I made an appointment with my doc, Aug 14, to get some tests done to make sure everything is aOK.

Also, I bought the Polar FT40, it came today after I did my Insanity® workout, so I'm going to try it tomorrow

Insanity Week 5 Day 2: June 24-30, 2013

Day 2- Max Interval Plyo- W  O  W!!! this was the mother of workouts!!! for heavens sake!!!! I am almost bathed in sweat and I LOVE IT!!!

Yesterday I bought a new battery for my heart  monitor and I used today, I think I need a new one because the reading on this one seems to be inaccurate. I sat down and it read 223, I worked out and read 68 heart beats. Looking at the Polar FT40 and Polar FT60, decisions decisions.

Insanity Week 5 Day 1: June 24-30, 2013

Day 1- Max Interval Cardio- kicked my butt BIG time!!!! Oh my!! I am so glad that I took 2 days off because this workout was go-go-go the whole time and my knees were not feeling good but, by the end of it they were fine. Now that its been almost 12 hours since I finished my right knee is kind of sore. Anyways, pure sweat and hard breathing the whole 59 minutes. I haven't done the Fit Test, which I am suppose to do today and I am not sure I will do it anyways. In the morning I planned on doing it during the evening but now I am not so sure about it.

Insanity Recovery Week Day 5: June 17-23, 2013

Day 5- I did it!!! And I did it early, right after waking up on an empty stomach. I felt good during the whole thing, even thou my leg muscles are fatigued. I am glad I put in the workout early because I am going out and I don't want to have the "I have to exercise" thought on the back of my head, I wanna be able to enjoy the whole day.

Insanity Recovery Week Day 4: June 17-23, 2013

Day 4- Oh wow!! I tried putting in the workout in the morning, as I always do but, after the first 6 minutes I was feeling so bit and burned that I stopped.

 I stopped and I went on to do my day's duties and didn't even think about it. Then I looked at the time (1700) and said to myself c'mon, you are not a quitter! are you going to let this day pass without working out? 4 1/2 weeks done for what??? plus, if you want to watch the game (NBA game 7-Spurs vs Heat), you HAVE to do it NOW!!  and I changed my clothes and I pressed play. I am so glad I did it!!! and no, I didn't feel tired or burned but, proud of myself.

Day 4: Cardio Recovery- I really really love this recovery, especially today that I woke up with a vague idea on not working out but, I got unto my exercise clothes and said to myself, you just have to get it done and I did. I am planing to go for a 1 mile run later this afternoon so will see.

Insanity Week 4 Day 3: June 10-16, 2013

Day 3: Plyometric Cardio Circuit- Ohh it feels sooooo good!!! I even feel that it went faster, don't get me wrong, it is really challenging and hard. I am so proud of myself for doing this program. I haven't lost a pound yet and I am gaining inches, which is kind of discouraging but, my Team Beach Body coach told me that I might be building up my muscles and then, hopefully, on the second phase I will lose weight. So, we just need to wait. Peace out!

Insanity Week 4 Day 1: June 10-16, 2013

Day 1: Pure Cardio & Cardio Abs-  Ok, today this Pure Cardio felt as it was my first time doing it, so tiring and fatigued but, I did it all and I did Cardio Abs. I love how I feel AFTER I am done and how much I sweat during the workout and 5 minutes after. Yesterday I started getting sick and I started  taking cold medicine. I hope I don't get really sick because there is no room for sickness in my plan.

Day 6: Plyometric Cardio Circuit- Whoooohhoooooooo!!! Week 3 is OVER!!! I successfully finished another week, I am so proud of me. I love the intensity of every single workout. Today I did better on the first set that emphasizes a lot on legs, shoulders and arms. It still hard for me to do the ski plank and in-out plank.  Tomorrow is day off and I am going to love it too!!
