Day 60, CLX/Insanity

60 days already?! Wow! I'm so proud of myself for sticking with the Insanity portion of the workouts. They are tough, and I'm still on the fence with whether or not I actually like them; it really is a love, hate, love relationship. I've learned a lot of moves that I would like to do again, but I can honestly say I will not be repeating Insanity EVER. I'm so glad we decided to just do a hybrid of it - 2-3 times a week is so much more attainable and doable then 6 times a week. Personally I have no idea how people do it 6 times a week as their sole workout. I like working out, but it's hard to explain how Insanity makes me feel. It's as if I'm just getting beat up for 45 minutes. The people in the video are falling out, we are falling out, you just have this overwhelming feeling of if they can't even do it after 60 days why am I even trying? I never really feel like I accomplish anything; overall I do feel stronger, but I can get that same feeling by doing workouts I enjoy!
Like the one I did today - Chalene's Greatest HIIT's from her TurboFire series. The moves are seriously just like Insanity but instead of suffering through the workout you feel energetic, alive, just awesome! I'm a total Chalene fan though. I'm loving her weight lifting series and I can't wait to do TF next. She is so inspirational to me (and I'm sure Shaun T is equally inspirational to others, he just doesn't motivate me as she does).
I'm looking forward to the hot air balloons with the family tonight. Tomorrow is our 9am run, CLX Push 3, Ab Burner, and measurement/photo day! Whew - I'm excited just thinking about it.
