Insanity Results
My Insanity Results are in!!! It’s crazy to say this, but I just finished my FIRST round of Insanity! If you would have asked me about this time last year if I thought I would have ever attempt to even try this program, I would have laughed at you very loudly! :-) At that point I was just starting my first round of P90X, and that program alone seemed like a HUGE mountain to get over. Insanity was like the Mount Everest of fitness programs and is focused on my biggest weakness at that time, endurance and cardio. That’s why I’m so pumped up to tell you about my Insanity results.
First, before I jump into my Insanity results, let me give you an overview of this program in case you don’t know about it…Continue reading
P90X or Insanity
P90X or Insanity? That is a question I get a lot! People ask me if they should start with P90X or Insanity, or they ask if I like P90X or Insanity better. They both sound like easy questions, but they actually aren’t cut and dry questions. It depends on a number of things if you should start with P90X or Insanity, and it’s really hard to say which program I like better since they are two completely different programs. It’s kind of like comparing apples to bananas.
So I’m going to jump right into things and start with the first question…
Insanity Workout Update- The Hardest Cardio I’ve Ever Done In My Life
Today is day 47 of the Insanity workout and I’ve finally set aside some time to post an update on my progress! It’s been an INCREDIBLE journey with Insanity. Did I say it’s been INCREDIBLE? Because it has! :-) Insanity has pushed me to the limits and right up to that edge which has allowed me to get great workouts. It has honestly been the hardest cardio that I’ve ever done in my life! During the workouts I get to breathing so hard and so deep (am I’m still talking about Insanity here?! :-) Just kidding…) that I HAVE to stop to take a second to catch my breath. I’ve never felt or experienced this kind of deep breathing before.
I made this video yesterday where I talk about how Insanity has gone so far, the difference between the regular workouts and the Max workouts, and what our plans are after my wife and I finish Insanity. Check it out and do me a favor and share this post if you’ve find it helpful-
Shakeology Rap
All I’ve got to say is that Missy Elliot and Lil’ Kim should be very afraid! My wife and I just recorded her SECOND rap video.
In this rap video Jen raps about this awesome stuff called Shakeology. It has truly helped my wife and I reach our fitness and health goals, so much so that it was her inspiration for her next hit single! :-)
I know your anticipation to check out this video is killing you, so go ahead and just click the video below to check it out….
WARNING: I need to warn you that there’s a guest background dancer who does some pretty provocative moves. You may want to send all children, dogs, cats, and birds out of the room before you push play. Quite frankly, it may be a bad idea to even watch this yourself. Lastly, I nor my wife are responsible for any equipment failure do to you playing this video. You have been warned!
Insanity Workout: Week 1 & 2
My wife and I have been doing the Insanity workout now for the past 2 weeks, and I’ve done a bad job of updating my blog on our progress so sorry about that! We started Insanity on November 7th, 2010 and today is day 17 of our journey with the program! That means we are already halfway done month 1 of Insanity which is crazy to think!
I was honestly very nervous and scared going into this program. Insanity is focused around cardio, and jump training (similar to P90X Plyometrics), and I struggle with cardio activities so I knew this program would be a challenge (which is exactly what I wanted). Oh and this program has been billed as the toughest program that Beachbody has ever put on DVD so I think that would make anyone nervous! :-)
