Insanity Day Five Pure Cardio

October 23rd, 2009 admin

As I squeezed out one last push up jack, tonight, our INSANE leader (Shaun T) uttered one of the most priceless statements concerning Insanity that I’ve heard yet. As he pulled himself up from the floor he said…

This sh** is ba-nan-as ya’ll!

“Well said Shaun, that sums it up perfectly.”

Just when you think it can’t get any crazier, Shaun T throws “Pure Cardio” at you. I had a suspicion that we were in for a butt kicking tonight, I just didn’t know to what extent. As we warmed up, Shaun made the comment that we was “nervous” about the workout. “Your nervous, Shaun? Holy bologna man! What are we in for?”

Well, you know how the commercial talks about long intervals of intense exercise between short periods of rest? Take that, only remove the periods of rest and go non stop like a freakin’ maniac for however long it was… and that’s Pure Cardio!

It’s invigorating, that’s for sure… and I really enjoyed it tonight, if such a thing can be said about brutal exercise. Once again I surprised myself and made it all the way through. I don’t quite have the speed the others have, but make no mistake, I have a bucket of sweat to prove I didn’t slack.

I think I’m finally starting to get the hang of the Heisman move… I guess I’ll know better when I do the next video on day ten. I’m pretty excited about that as I can already see a difference after day five.

Only 55 more days to go… “keep diggin’ deeper, ya’ll!”

Cheers!

Insanity Workout Day Number 4 Cardio Recovery

October 22nd, 2009 admin

I was elated to find out that today was Cardio Recovery. I saw the word recovery on my wall calendar and was thrilled to see that Shaun T was going to take it a little easy on us today. While, granted, we didn’t “kill the wind” (so to speak today), there were times that it felt like my legs were going to burst into flames. I never believed in spontaneous human combustion… but today, I came as close as I’ve ever been.

Words don’t do Insanity, and what it does for you, justice. Just four days down and I’m already noticing a difference in my core and seeing a visual difference in my upper legs and thighs. Insanity is pushing me to do things I wouldn’t do on my own, during a regular workout at the gym, because much of it is stuff I didn’t BELIEVE I could do. It’s amazing what happens when you push through and dig deep. Your body will do much more than you think it will.

I’m really digging the nutrition and diet included with Shaun T’s Insanity. Most of the diet plans my wife and I have tried include menus that are complicated and time consuming. That’s not the case with this. Most of your meals can be prepared quickly and efficiently while delivering quality taste, but more importantly, quality nutrition that is calculated to help you lean out and burn body fat.

Insanity workout day number two completed!

October 20th, 2009 admin
They say that the things that won’t kill you will make you stronger…

so, judging by that, as I have survived my first plyometric cardio circuit with Shaun T, then today should be one of the greatest days of my life… wow.

After 4 and a half months back in the gym, THINKING I was getting into shape… LOL! Insanity showed me, today, just how mistaken I was.

I would love to report to everyone that it went super smooth and I was able to do the whole thing like a champion, but the truth of the matter is that my Heisman looked more like a “Private Pile”, my stretches looked something like you buy from the pretzel stand at the mall and, by the time it was over, I was a heaving pile of a mess gasping for my existence as I crashed to the floor.

All of that being said, I finished, I’m still alive and, believe it or not, I’m looking forward to tomorrow!

The reality of this weight loss journey hit home today as I was doing the required jumps and feeling the excess fat on my back sliding up and down as I went. I don’t know what it is about the human mind that takes you to a place that you just don’t care about that as you shove another chocolate chip cookie into your face, but when you are trying to get rid of it, you begin to care. I’ve said this so many times and I’ll say it again… if you are going to make a transformation with your life your mind has to be right. Get the mind right and your body will follow!

This is the first exercise program, I’ve ever used, where you really feel like the instructor is right there in the room with you. You get the push you need… it’s as if Shaun can see you through the dvd player.

If you are looking for a new fitness challenge then I highly recommend that you check out Shaun T’s Insanity! Once you start, just do it, even if you can’t do it as fast as the people on the DVD, just do it… keep moving, stay in form and… oh yeah, KEEP MOVING! Make sure to attach the garden hose to the kitchen faucet because your going to need water… you are going to sweat buckets of it.

If you have a minute, you can check out my latest video update featuring the Insanity Workout Day 1 Fitness Test.
