Days 6 & 7 (Post Insanity)

My Day 6 usually consists of going out and doing some outdoor sports or cardio. I actually was outdoor playing ball for over 3 hours so I would say I had a pretty good cardio workout althought it is not as intense as any Insanity workout, it was a long workout which is probably equally as good. To keep myself fueled I had a couple of Cliff bars (approx. 250 calories with 10 grams of protein each).

Cliff bars are great. They taste kind of like the protein bars I used to make at home. I am not sure if they changed their recipes recently but I first tried the Cliff bar about 2 years ago and I felt they were horrible. I can't recall exactly what it was - maybe I felt they were too sweet. It was a totally different experience this time around, they were completely exquisite and satisfying. I'll definitely be getting more of these whenever I need some sort of meal replacement / snack on days out.

Day 7 was today. I was actually pretty bored and technically it is supposed to be my rest day. However, since I had time in my hands and felt kind of restless, I took a walk around the park for about 40 minutes and slow jogged for about 20 more minutes. It was a good and easy way to relax and get my heart rate up just a tiny bit. I must say that jogging feels like a breeze now after completing BeachBody Insanity. But, it is still tough keeping your concentration. All I could think of was "this is so boring - darn it, stop thinking about it and just jog."
