Insanity Workout: Max Cardio Conditioning and Cardio Abs
It’s been a little over a week since I lost another pound and I’m happy to report that I lost yet another one this morning! I have lost 16 pounds since 2/6/12! There are less than 2 weeks left to my first round of Insanity and I’m shooting to lose at least 20 pounds by the end. I think it’s definitely achievable. I just need to stay focused and keep working hard.
Well I woke up with a cough this morning. I was afraid I would get that and have chest congestion. Chest congestion could make it a little harder while working out so I decided to hold off on doing my workout until later at night. In the meantime, I helped my friend paint the walls in her hallway. That was a workout in itself and I’m sure I burned a bunch of calories painting. Before I painted, I drank my Shakeology for a late lunch and had another shake after I was done painting for dinner. I added Kale in the shake I had for lunch and added a scoop of Natural Peanut Butter and a small handful of roasted and unsalted peanuts in the shake I had for dinner. It’s not a lot of calories but I felt like I ate enough because it makes me feel full. On top of that I got the nutrients I needed and then some.
I worked out to Max Cardio Conditioning and Cardio Abs as soon as I got home. Throughout my workouts, I modified and took it easier once again. A couple times, I was a little bit more out of breath and my lungs burned a bit due to the chest congestion. It sounds bad but it really isn’t. I made sure I took those breaks when I needed to.
My cold is running it’s course a lot faster than the last time I was sick so I’m sure I’ll feel better by the weekend. Can’t wait for recovery day tomorrow!

Good for you that you lost 16 pounds already! You will definitely make your 20 pound goal. I have been sicker than a dog even with fever so i know what you mean about taking it easy. I cant do insanity this sick–its hard enough to get through a day of work. Take care of yourself. You are doing so awesome!
Thanks! Oh no that’s not good. I hope you are feeling better now. You’ll be able to pick it back up as soon as you get better
I hope so. I’m probably gonna schedule a dr. appointment soon.
