day 4- recovery

today was the recovery work out a slow and steady work out but it actually tested my strength more than my endurance today. i like it but i think i like the intense high speed ones better... this kind of reminded me of the yoga day in p90x.... my least favorite... its not near as hard as yoga but it still requires a lot of balance which i do NOT have.. hopefully while strengthening my muscles ill get that too.  i feel good after this work out tho... relaxed and over all good.


alright short and sweet for today. oh i didn't do it at 6 am today i did it at 13:00 just because i was filling sick this morning and the main reason i was doing it first thing in the morning was because it was so hot in this apartment with no ac but now that the weather is cooler i can sleep and extra hour get up with the boys and do my work out at nap time... this makes for a happier mommy!


Cami: thanks for all the comments and i looked at the schedule like you said in the first week there is no abs but next week ill start that with the other workouts so hopefully they will work ;)


Later all!

going strong Day3

well today's work out was not as bad as yesterdays. my shoulders are in more pain. the thing im kind of bummed about is i have not had pain in my "abs" aka BIG BELLY yet...I have noticed tho during the work outs he keeps saying contract your core contract your core... so im trying but unless he says it i forget so i need to work on that one. when i got up this morning i realized yea my legs hurt and so did my arms but the one thing that caught me off guard was the fact that my feet hurt really bad... the balls of my feet and the "arches" or the sport your arches should be (im as flat footed as a duck). anyway over all i feel good today. i do not feel like trowing up like i did yesterday. my shoulders and neck are just really tight... well back to good old mommy and house work.

day 2- BLAH

Blah: that is how I feel. my tummy is in knots and my legs and arms hurt, but in a strange way I like it. Today was hard. a lot of jumping.... my poor legs. I have laundry to do but i really don't want to tackle the 7 flights of stairs to do it. have i mentioned that my body is in pain!?? my COLD shower felt wonderful. no weight loss, but no weight gain either so that is good. I think the biggest struggle im going to have in all this is eating better. i like my sweats! and its even harder when you have a husband that dose too. i figure if we dont buy it i cant eat it. although i will say that after i work out i want some grapes or some juicy fruits not sweats to that is a good thing! I have noticed that all this working out and getting down on the floor and everything else makes my acid reflex really bad... so ill have to see about getting something to help with that too. i need to get on some sort of vitamins too, i know they will help! well that is pretty much it for day 2. I got up at 6 did my work out took a shower got laundry ready and sat down here and wrote a blog and its now 7:45... and Kaleb is still sleeping...

230.6-Insanity day 1

WARNING: my spelling and grammar are awful! 

So last night my husband come home from work with a box in his hands marked. Beachbody. I was Uber excited to know that my Insanity DVD's had finally came in. last night i told Brett to wake me up when he left for PT in the morning so i could get my work out out of the way before the kidos got up. he came in at 6 and woke me up just for me to say ill do it at nap time... i laid there for about ten minutes then dragged my fat ass out of bed and did my work out.

Today was one the first day so it was just the fit test and let me tell you i sweated my ass off with just the fit test so im sure ill die tomorrow when the real workout begins... we shall see. Now your probably wondering what the 230.6 is in the title... that is (sad to say) my weight right now. i way more now than i did when i was 9 months pregnant with my second son. my goal is is to be back to my pre pregnancy weight which is 160. Even if it take 2 cycles of this insanity i will get there. I still plan to go on walks and everything else i was doing before just adding insanity in there.

As most of you know im concerned about my thyroid and maybe that being the cause for the trouble of losing weight so ill be making an appointment here soon. i had one but had to reshedual because of Brett's work. so im hoping to get that checked out because the thyroid meds (if i do have an issue) will help a lot! anyway here are my test results:

For each excersize you get 1 minute to do as many as you can. (I SUCKED):

Switch Kicks: 35 (2 kicks = 1 rep)
Power Jacks: 27
Power Knees: 74
Power Jumps: 16 (these kicked my ass)
Globe Jumps: 4 (4 jumps = 1 rep, so i did 16 jumps)
Suicide Jumps: 9 (i was dying at this point lol)
Push-up Jacks: 8 (these sucked! i have no upper body strength)
Low plank oblique: 28


I do this text every other Wednesday so on September 7th we will see how im doing :)

over all i feel good i am happy i did it in the morning and got it out of the way. It actually woke me up and gave me more energy to do things around the house... so here is a start to the new me!

WISH ME LUCK!
