Insanity Workout: Plyometric Cardio Circuit

Day 1 has finally arrived!  I had done my Fit Test the night before and I think I did alright for my first one.  Anyways, our first workout is Plyometric Cardio Circuit.  It’s 42 minutes long with intervals of intense lower-body plyo and sweat-inducing cardio.  Before I started it, I realized it’s the same workout I tried out before I decided to join the challenge.  I went too hard at first and only lasted about 25 minutes.  I’m not going to go into detail but let’s just say I didn’t feel too well after that.  This time around I took it a little easier and I took breaks when I needed it.  I didn’t pause the DVD it like last time but I finished it all the way through!  My room is always cold and at the end of the workout, I was drenched in sweat.

It feels great to work out again and it feels greater eating healthy again.  I had a Shakeology shake for breakfast and I’m surprised how much it made me feel full with only a scoop and 8 ounces of water with a little bit of ice.  I won’t really be strict on counting calories this time around.  I’ll use it as more of a guide but I’m going to be doing a max of 1900 calories a day.  I’m going to focus more on getting the best and most nutrients each day.  I purchased a book call “Eat To Live” by Dr. Joel Fuhrman that I know will definitely teach me more about eating healthier.  Eventually I’m going stop counting calories when I get used to eating right and getting the portion control down.

I’m ready to “dig deeper” tomorrow!
