Insanity Round 1, Day 1
They definitely got the name right with this one.
It is insane. I see why people get results with it, though. It is the definition of tough, just look it up I’m sure there will be a photo of Sean T right there… 😉
I did it, though. I got through the whole thing and honestly? I’m really proud of that. I had to stop a few times – ok, quite a few times, I think I might not have done a whole circuit from wanting to die at one point… but I pushed through and got there.
It gave me the same feeling I get when I run longer than I have before. It’s an emotional release when you know you’ve pushed yourself further than ever and have accomplished something you thought was impossible.
It’s the best feeling in the world.
I can’t wait until it gets easier, I know it will I just have to keep doing it every day until I’m done. That’s not so hard 🙂
I did my beginning stats last week (before all the Birthday Shenanigans) and here they are:
Date: 12/12/2011
Fit Test 1
- Switch Kicks: 86
- Power Jacks: 34
- Power Knees: 80
- Power Jumps: 29
- Globe Jumps: 7
- Suicide Jumps: 4
- Push-Up Jacks: 4
- Low Plank Obliques: 26
My next fit test will be Jan 2nd, the day before I return to work in the new year. If I can manage to improve and see a loss of pounds and inches over the holiday period it will be impressive. Christmas and New Year’s I don’t usually go overboard too much, especially with food. I choose to splurge for my birthday instead, it just doesn’t help that it’s right before Christmas!
