I am Insane!(140 to 52)

Saturday, July 07, 2012

WOW I have not blogged since MAY! I guess I have not had anything much to say LOL

I was recently tortured by my youngest favorite daughter to purchase the insanity exercise dvd's. I caved and did it. Shaun T moved into our home and we started with the fit test last Sunday(I was totally worn out on the fit test!) and started the program on Monday as I wanted my rest day to be on Saturday. Well I am proud to say I made it through week 1! Oh yea she made it too. LOL She actually called me at work blaming me for ordering the dvd's LOLLOLLOL
How did I make it? MODIFICATION MODIFICATION MODIFICATION! My knees are not able to take all of the jumping. Nor am I able to move as fast as Shaun T. But I figured out a way to do a modification of any exercise that was too much for me! Now let's not get it twisted; there were times that all I could do was lay on the floor panting and dripping with sweat! (and sweating is not what I do a lot of)
I will say that despite the fact that I could not do all of the exercises the way Shaun or his team did them; I did push harder and digged deeper(Insanityism's) this week and I MADE IT! I lost .6 pounds and I did see some improvement in what I was able to do! emoticon
Week 2 starts in the morning! Soooo I will try to update next week! emoticon

    most exercise programs do not expect you to keep up with what you are viewing,just do the best you can,time will prevail,and you will eventually keep up easily,once you are buff....slow and steady wins the race emoticon
