Exercise Challenge - inc. Insanity!
- Thread starter ceridwen
- Start date
Ok, I'm going to be thanking you less and less as the week progresses, alli. I'm in pain!!
Woopwoop! Completed day 2 of insanity, plyometric cardio. What fun is in store for me tomorrow, I wonder?
Great work yesterday, girls! Keep it up!
Tomorrow is struggling to get out of bed and waddling about like a penguin, but at least we'll all be one step closer to being a lean mean fighting machine!! x
Fantastic, another recruit! Insanity is marketed as 60 days, but is actually 63 (I guess they've just rounded it!). I think Laura mentioned doing the 6 weeks 6 pack DVD, so there's a few different workouts floating around on the thread.
Well done on the cardio & pilates. I keep meaning to try pilates, my posture is terrible and think maybe it will sort me out!x
Day 2 of Insanity 'Plyometric Cardio Circuit' - DONE!
Phew, that was tough, especially after a long day at work. I managed to complete the warm-up without stopping, and also the next two rounds of suicide drills, power squats, mountain climbers & ski downs, by round three I had to take breaks though - I was exhausted and the sweat was literally dripping off me.
The last few rounds are a bit of a blur, but the moves I found the hardest were the basketball drills (where you have to constantly leap up as if you're trying to shoot a hoop), and in-and-outs (where you're in a plank position and you have to keep jumping in and out. Just when you think the whole thing is done Shaun T makes you throw some punches for a few minutes, urrghhh.... exhausting! Even though it was tough, I enjoyed it, let's hope this lasts!
Tomorrow is day 3 - Cardio Power & Resistance.
I hope everybody else had a good workout!!! Post your results on here!

Woohoo! Welcome, Pauline and becca. And congrats Karin and Sara on your workouts.
I managed day 3 of insanity: cardio power and resistance! My face was not as red as yesterday, but i sweated more I'm looking forward to the fact that tomorrow's workout is called 'cardio recovery', but I doubt it will be as easy as it sounds...
Its interesting that everyone finds different exercises difficult - not that any of them are easy. I'm actually ok with the basketball jumps and squats because of body pump, but the push ups are killing me!
Good luck everyone!!

It's great to see more people joining! Pauline, I never thought I'd see the day...! DF, I'm well impressed you improvised to make sure you didn't miss a day, well done you.
Discovered the true value of this thread/pledge this morning when I wanted to do a pilates class at lunchtime so almost didn't do my bike and weights routine, but I would have been cheating so I did both! 30 mins on the bike, level 3, 75 rpm, done for another day! I can hold my head up high!
Jolly hockey sticks, eh Ceri xx
