Day 51 of 63: Max Interval Plyo

Workout Time: 56 minutes
Calories Burned: 620

Make sure you get enough sleep and rest the night before your workout! I felt just exhausted all day and working out an intensive workout was the last of my wishes.

I started off really pumped up but I didn't have much energy to keep it up. However, I still went through the entire video and still burned my 600 calories. Dig deeper Y'all!

I also took a couple of pictures after my workout (all sweat wiped out) and will hopefully be able to use these to compare my progress in 2 weeks.


I was really hoping to get 6-packs by the end of this 60-day workout but by the look of these pictures it doesn't seem like I will be getting there. I might have to do a Round 2 and Round 3. My scale broke as well so I can't track my weight loss.

Day 18 of 63: Cardio Recovery

I am not sure I like Cardio Recovery days. They are not cardio intensive but they are very muscle strengthening intensive.

The workout went ok and a little easier this time around but still not fun.

Progress? At this point I feel a little bit saturated with all the workouts and no real physical, visible results. I am not saying I want to give up, but I am saying it is starting to bet a little harder to keep it going. Nevertheless, I will keep trying.

:(:(:(:(:(

Day 10 of 63: Plyometric Cardio Circuit

I started to wonder, "When will I ever be able to complete one of these workouts non-stop?" And truth be told, I don't think I will be able to, at least not within the next 6 months. Why? You can see all of the people in the Insanity class are super fit and they can't go through the entire workout without taking breaks. Myself, I am somewhat fit and don't think I will be at their fitness level for some time.

Workout Summary: Overall, I still noticed minor improvements since the last time I did this routine. It is still tough, and I still need to take breaks. And, I still want to give up when there is 10 minutes left of workout :S. I think my body is getting stronger - my feet, legs, and calves specially.

Today I decided to post a picture of myself post-workout. I'd be a lot sweatier but I was wearing a t-shirt which absorbed a lot of my sweat. And yes, physically, I have not changed - I still have a belly and I might have even gained some weight!!!
