Insanity - Remix Day47
#insanity Last week I basically missed the entire week of insanity with the exception of a few days.  SO I decided I need to to the last two weeks instead of this being the last week.  I didn’t go without a workout last week as I taught turbo kick twice and did that workout through the week, but this is my Insanity cycle and I need to finish it. My shoulders and collar bones are sore and I...

Insanity - Day....Yoga and cardio abs
#insanity Last night I taught turbo-kick.  I got up this morning and started to do Insanity and decided it would be smarter to do yoga.  40 Minutes of Stretch with Chalene follow by cardio abs and i’m feeling pretty good. Life is starting to get busy and I’m glad I have a daily workout routine to provide some stability in my days.

Insanity - Day 47 & turbo round 50
#insanity I got to the workout today and it’s Cardio Balance and Power?!  That’s the workout I did for a “recovery” week.  OMG, Shaun T has run out of ways to torture me!  Only this workout was surprisingly difficult all be it doable. my core is stronger, my balance is better.  The next two weeks of Insanity are going to be kicked up to beast mode and I need to start...

Insanity - Day 46
#insanity The biggest thing I love about the insanity workouts is that even when the engine doesn’t feel like it wants to get moving, if you just push a little and go through the paces, by the end of the workout you’re fully engaged in it.  Today was a double whammy as I had to do cardio abs as well. Nutrition is becoming more and more important as my fitness progresses and I am so...

Insanity - Day 44 (MERCY)
#insanity There is a cool feeling when you know you’re pushing your body and not injuring yourself.  You feel all the right muscle groups working in the core, your arms are pumped up and your lungs are breathing in and out as a pace that faster but easily providing your with enough oxygen.  You are in shape, healthy and loving life Yesterday I did Insanity and then taught a Turbo-kick...

Teaching Turbo-Kick
#turbokick Ok, Chalene wins! Teaching turbo-kick is definitely getting my heart rate up higher than doing my Insanity workouts in the morning. All hail the queen!

Insanity - Day 43 - The A Game
#Insanity Insanity is back with a vengeance this morning!  Initially my body didn’t want to move but around the 2nd interval I was into the routine.  This is the only routine I’ve done with insanity that makes me light headed. I’ve got a new game with Mr. Shaun -T, it’s call the A game.  Have you ever noticed how many people in his cast have names that begin with A?...

Insanity - Day42
#Insanity This morning was Max Cardio Conditioning, which should probably be called Max Endurance conditioning instead but I didn’t create the program so oh well. I missed 4 days of my Insanity workout last week because I was out of town and then on Saturday and Sunday I was going through my P90X certifications.  I passed! I am now a certified P90X instructor, Turbo-kick...

Turbo kick teaching
#turbokick Ok, so Insanity is harder than turbo-fire….but i forgot that teaching turbo-kick is much harder than insanity!!!  I burned a ton of calories, kept my heart beat up and rocked it out. Joy!

Insanity - Day 37
#Insanity Max Interval Plyo - Three minutes of hell followed by a 30 second break only to jump once more into the breach….several times.  Towards the end of this workout I had to sit down and skip on the pushups as I got light headed.  I haven’t gotten light headed doing a workout in ages.  The amount of grossness sweating from me during this routine was off the chart.  I drank and...

Insanity - Month 2
#Insanity Max Interval Circuit. - this wasn’t as bad as I was expecting it to be (or remembered it being when I was 380lbs) but it was not a walk in the park.  The second month of this craziness starts with a bang!  Suddenly all those exercises that I didn’t like doing in Month one, Like the cardio abs warm up with the high knee obliques, is a 60 second routine in this workout and my...

Insanity - Day 3x - Recovery week DONE!
#Insanity Last day of Cardio abs and balance done!  This workout grew on me over the week as I got a better understanding for what it was accomplishing.  It’s not really a recovery workout as much as a focus on different muscle groups for a week. I think this is the workout that you need to do to be ready to do Month 2 of Insanity successfully and safely. I knocked it out and am ready...

Insanity - Day 29
#insanity Day 29 or is it 31?  At some point I numbered wrong so whatever, it’s another day done.  This mornings workout was much better than last nights.  Same routine, same hip flexor work, different attitude.  I’ve decided to play the ELMO game while I do insanity.  What’s the elmo game you ask? (go on, ask…i’m waiting….) The Elmo game is when ever Shaun...
