Day 2 - Plyometric Cardio Circuit

I see why people lose a lot of weight when they do this program.  I had been warned Insanity is hard.. and there's no denying that.  I really don't have a whole lot to say other than these random comments.


  • I am glad the moves are "easy."  I mean they aren't complicated, long drawn out moves that lose me.  I know how to do it.  However that doesn't mean I can do nearly as many as those fit people.
  • I like how they're repeated.  Helps learn and do them properly.
  • Keep your core tight.  That might apply to people who actually HAVE a core.  I have a center, but it's full of jello, booze, and Chinese food.
  • Rest periods aren't long enough for me.  One thing about the DVD is that it can be paused.  And boyyy did I ever pause.  A lot.  
  • Swear words.  I've gotten familiar with them.
  • I do my own stretching before the warm-up.  Very glad I did.
  • The push up bars are awesome.  I wouldn't have been able to half-ass the floor moves without them.  A+ purchase on my end.
  • I'm hungry.  I showered and had to sit for awhile because my muscles in my legs were shaking.  Spazzing out, man.  I am in for a lot of pain later on this evening.
  • Healthy eating is going superbly.  Right now I just finished off a portioned size of carrots and hummus.  I buy bags of carrots then divide them into baggies in their proper portioned size.  I also do this with green grapes, multigrain chips, and pistachios.  It helps tremendously in preventing over-eating.
  • Sucking down a protein shake I created in the kitchen.  It's not bad.  I added vanilla protein powder, frozen strawberries, a dash of skim milk, greek yogurt, and a dash of Ovaltine because I was craving chocolate.  
  • Looking forward to DAY 3 tomorrow.

This is what I did today.
