First week of Shaun T's Insanity.

I made it through my very first week of Shaun T's Insanity program. WOW, was it tough but I LOVE the challenges that this program creates for my body. If you have completed a physical demanding exercise program like P90X and are looking for something to take your fitness to the next level than Insanity is your program! You can learn more about this program by clicking here. I must say that I had to mentally prepare myself for a workout like this before even starting and I continue to do it everyday even though after only a week I can tell that I am gaining endurance and strength.



The first day is the Insanity FIT TEST. You perform a warm up followed by 10-15 different exercises all while doing as many as you can (maxing out) for 1 minute each. I was very suprised because I was able to alot more than I expected. If you have a lot of trouble doing any of these moves for a short period of time you might re-consider whether or not you are physically ready to complete this intense 60-day program.

2nd day of Insanity was Plyometric Cardio Circuit and I found this to be a little scary buy I did what I could do and "forgot the rest." Thank Tony Horton. The warm up even intimidated me so getting to the actual workout I worried about whether I would be able to finish.

Day 3 was Cardio Power and Resistance and I actually enjoyed this workout a lot more than the first day. I really like doing push-ups (weird I know) and more of the strength traning moves than just plyo work.

Day 4 Shaun T gave us a BIT of a break but not much with Cardio Recovery which sort of reminded me of the tone that Tony Horton set in P90X. I enjoyed this workout.

Day 5 was Pure Cardio which the name just pretty much sums it up. The warm up had me sweating as much as I EVER have followed by an intense 15 move all at 1 minute long workout.

Day 6 was back to Plyo Cardio Circuit again and Day 7 a day of rest! LOVED THAT DAY and it was much appreciated.

What I like most about this program is the fact that the nutrition plan provided in the program is one of the easiest I have ever followed before, even better than p90X. You determine your calorie intake based on your activity levels then you are instructed to eat 5 different times a day and you get to pick from which meals you want to eat for which meal. The meals are really super easy and cost effective as well!
