Day 45! Half-way through the program - that's so exciting. I know that I owe all of my success to the two wonderful Ladies that I workout with each and every day. Without them I doubt I'd be nearly as successful.
Last night was Insanity Max Interval Circuit, the 59 minute "mother" of all Insanity workouts (as Steph likes to call it). Last time my kids kept me pretty distracted, but last night it was just us girls, and we killed it! That was a great workout, and probably my favorite of the set. It reminds me of TurboFire with the exercises being grouped together with short 30 second breaks inbetween. I'm sure it was somewhat "easier" for me because I modify, but even though I'm modifying I'm still dripping with sweat and breathing as hard as the girls. I truly believe you can modify and still get just as intense of a workout. I've yet to figure out how to modify the burpee type moves so I just do them very slowly and try not to land with a lot of force. I still felt as if a truck ran me over this morning - my entire body ached, but in a good way. After some stretching I was able to move without any pain or stiffness, and by 9am I was more then ready for our 10am run.
We've decided to change up our running a bit. We were running for distance during the week, but with stopping at 2 miles we were only getting in about 23-25 minutes, so today we ran for 30 minutes, and you know what?! We managed to run 2.94 miles, and it felt great. Chris is on leave this week so I was able to run without the jogging stroller (hopefully that'll help my knees), but Tabitha still had her's so it was a good pace...lots of hills (not too many places on base that don't have them).
Tonight is PUSH 2 and some ab burner. Should be good as always.
