DAY 25: CARDIO RECOVERY

On Friday, I did my Cardio Recovery workout.

It was hard to hold my deep stretches this week....my legs kept shaking! It felt good when I was finished though and it was good to get the stretches in before my recovery week.

Sorry this entry was late....

DAY 24: PLYOMETRIC CARDIO CIRCUIT

Okay, so I forgot to update yesterday after doing my workout so here is a delayed entry:

Yesterday was day 24 and I did the Plyometric Cardio Circuit! I really really enjoy this workout! It's so good and get's me sweating so much! It's pretty amazing how much has changed in 24 days; from Day 1 when I thought sweating a lot meant I had to wipe up the floor one or twice to keep my sneakers from slipping to now where every 30 second break interval I wipe up the floor.

I'm ready to keep on pushing!!!

DAY 23: Cardio Power and Resistance!

Whooooo!

Just finished my Cardio Power and Resistance workout and I feel great! This workout kicks my ass so good!!! I love it!

I only have 4 more workouts this week and then I'm moving onto my recovery week! Then MAX INTERVAL TRAINING!!!

WEEK 3 WEIGH IN!

Alright everyone!!

Today is my 23rd day of INSANITY meaning that I have been on this program for a little more than 3 weeks. Since I didn't weigh in after week 2 (due to missed workouts while on vacation for 4 days) it has been 2 weeks since my last weigh in.

Here it goes:

Weight: 139 lbs

Waist: 30 in

Chest: 33.5 in

Left Bicep: 12.5 in

Right Bicep: 13 in

Here is my Week 3 Weigh In Picture:

Goal Tracking:

Since my last weigh in I have lost 2 more pounds off the scale, 2 more inches off my waist, another inch off my chest, and half an inch off of each bicep! That makes a total since starting INSANITY of 4 inches of my waits, 1.5 inches off the chest, and half an inch off of each bicep. I've lost a total of 4 lbs off the scale, which is awesome considering the fact that while I've been shredding through body fat, I've also been building muscle... especially in my legs!

I'm excited to finish off the first 4 weeks of workouts and move on to the recovery week and see how my body responds. After the recovery week, it will be time to push it to the MAX with all the MAX INTERVAL TRAINING workouts!!!!

Enough chatting, time for Cardio Power and Resistance!

Day 22: Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs

Hey everyone!!!

I'm just now getting a chance to write this because I worked all day today on the set of GLEE for 14+ hours.... I got home and did both my workouts, took a shower, cooked some dinner (at 12:30am) and then relaxed a little. Now I'm almost ready for bed and figured I would come on and update for the day.

Because of my long day I wasn't able to do my weigh in or my measurements today but they will be done tomorrow morning before I do my workout, then I will be going to Six Flags with my cousin who's in town from Brazil via San Diego!

Tonight I did the Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs workouts tonight and man, after a LONG day on my feet, it was HARD!! Pure Cardio, as usual made me sweat like crazy but that's what I love about INSANITY!!! I urge myself to sweat more and more and more every workout and push and DIG DEEP! Then Cardio Abs really worked my core and it was tough but when I was all finished, I felt that much better.

Tomorrow should be an interesting morning considering I will be doing a workout only 10 hours after my previous one.... we'll see how it goes! Cardio Power and Resistance, I will wake up and dominate you!

Day 21: Plyometric Cardio Circuit

Oops! I totally forgot to update today but don't worry.... better late then never.

My workout for today was the Plyometric Cardio Circuit and it was AWESOME! I really enjoy this workout because it kicks my ass but when I'm finished I feel GOOD!!!!

Today marks 3 weeks completed of INSANITY! Only 6 more to go!

Day 20: Cardio Power and Resistance

Hey guys!

Just finished my Cardio Power and Resistance workout which was today.... Tomorrow will be my last day of playing catch up for missing workouts on my vacation and instead of taking the day off, I will be doing the Plyometric Cardio Circuit. Then Tuesday will be the first day of my forth week on INSANITY!

Also Tuesday I will be posting my Week 3 Weight In and Week 3 Photo!

At the end of next week will be the end of the first cycle of INSANITY and the fifth week is a recovery week where I'll do six consecutive days of Core Cardio and Balance. I'm excited to try a new workout! After the recovery week, things will definitely get MAXED OUT and I'll start cycling through the MAX INTERVAL CIRCUIT, MAX INTERVAL PLYO and MAX CARDIO CONDITIONING workouts for four more weeks!
