If you are here for the first time, welcome to my blog. My own little piece of this world wide internet web thing.
If you are returning to my blog, welcome back and here we go again.....
Tonight Sylvia and I begin Shaun T's Insanity. And I have to admit that it scares me and excites me at the same time. I have always loved the Insanity infomercials. Every time it comes on, I have to watch it. It never fails to get me pumped up. I think that I loved them because the people in the commercials seriously looked like they were getting the asses handed to them, and apparently they were. No actors, no stand ins, just Shaun T and a room full of hard core, fitness junkies bringing it, digging deep and leaving pools of sweat on the floor. I can't wait to get started. Sweat is fat crying. And i love to make it cry, and make it cry a lot.
My girlfriend and I decided to do Insanity after she had completed 90 days of Les Mills Pump, and i had completed 90 days of P90X. I was going to do P90X2, but due to some tendon issues in both my arms, i am unable to do pull ups until they completely heal. Which could be many more months. Its already been more than 2 months but i find other ways to workout. I have been running and doing Les Mills Pump Hard Core Abs a few days a week. In my down time, i also became P90X certified, so now i can teach P90X one on one or in a gym. More on that in the months to come. Stay tuned.
Anyway, we will be following the Insanity Nutrition Guide religiously and the food is all prepared and portioned our for week 1 and wow, it is a lot of food to eat daily. I will be consuming nearly 3000 calories daily for the next month. And it is all good for me food, there is no junk, no treats, no ice cream rewards for a job well done, juts the needed fuel to get this job done. After cruising the forums and Team Beachbody message boards it would seem that I may have to up that calorie intake for the final month.
Sylvia and I have both achieved great results doing our respective workouts by just eating right and pressing play daily, but we have decided that if we follow the nutrition guide that is included (as recommended) we will be totally blown away with our results this time !
So, wish us luck, and stay tuned for daily updates, photos, and possibly video coverage of us getting our asses handed to us by Shaun T. ( and you may even hear Sylvia yelling at Shaun T during the workout)
Hope to see you back here soon !
Lee & Sylvia
