MONDAY - APRIL 6, 2015 - INSANITY MAX 30 - Cardio Challenge
My calves are feeling much better, but now my right knee is a bit sore. I tweaked it a bit on Saturday's workout, but it's not too bad. I started the workout in bare feet, like I normally work out, but I could feel my calves starting to tweak again, so I put on sneakers to absorb some of the shock and let me land a but more even. That seemed to work much better. I still don't like the program in general, but I worked through it. Again, a lot of sweat.

TUESDAY - APRIL 7, 2015 - INSANITY MAX 30 - Tabata Power
Not much to say. I officially "maxed out" late, but I did have problems with a some of the push up moves earlier on.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 314; Avg Heart Rate: 124; Max Heart Rate: 155; Maxed out at: 27:53.
WEDNESDAY - APRIL 8, 2015 - INSANITY MAX 30 - Sweat Intervals
One thing I need to do is change my attitude about this program. I'm 10 days into it and am bored out of my mind. I don't like the moves. The cast is uninspiring, I'm midway through each workout and wondering why I'm doing this. I'm certainly working up a sweat, but don't feel I'm working on making any specific body part stronger. On the contrary, all I feel like is that I'm hurting my calves, ankles, and knees. The only reason I'm continuing on is because I'm too stubborn to quit.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 376; Avg Heart Rate: 137; Max Heart Rate: 157; Maxed out at: 18:10.
THURDSAY - APRIL 9, 2015 - INSANITY MAX 30 - Tabata Strength
Well at least it wasn't the same old cardio routines (with different names) I'm doing three days a week. I maxed out one second short of last week's time, and it was during a move where you're holding a low Diamond Push up. My arms were fried at that point and consequently I wasn't good on the push up moves after that. My calves are feeling better. I did a few of the jumping around moves, but modified on most of them. I still don't want to tempt fate.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 330; Avg Heart Rate: 127; Max Heart Rate: 153; Maxed out at: 11:40.
FRIDAY - APRIL 10, 2015 - INSANITY MAX 30 - Friday Fight: Round 1
This one can be tough, especially the second half, where there seems to be more burpees and plank moves. I wore down really quickly during the last 15 minutes.
Time: 30 minutes; Calories Burned: 361; Avg Heart Rate: 134; max Heart Rate: 153; Maxed out at: 12:27.
SATURDAY - APRIL 11, 2015 - INSANITY MAX 30 - Pulse
Not much to say. 20 minutes of stretching and plank moves.
Time: 20 minutes; Calories Burned: 158; Avg Heart Rate: 108; Max Heart Rate: 122.
SUNDAY - APRIL 12, 2015 - INSANITY MAX 30 - Ab Attack 10
I have a lot of Ab routines with all the programs I have. With the exception of the original P90X's Ab Ripper X, this may be the toughest. I'll bet I only got in 60%-70% of the moves.
Time: 10 minutes; Calories Burned: 83; Avg Heart Rate: 111; Max Heart Rate: 127; Maxed out at: 1:30
SUNDAY WEIGH IN
Weight: 203.4 (+2.6 lbs)
Body Fat: 23.4% (+0.5%)
Both are big gains, but I ate like garbage this week. Everything from Easter candy, to a Burger King Whopper meal, to diet Root Beer, etc. Stress Eating again.
THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
I'm doing this program because I think I should be doing this program, not because I want to. I'm going through the motions. I have no goals. As I said, I'm stress eating again, and one of the main stressers is knowing I have to come home and do this every night. During the five weeks I was off, I actually lost a little bit of weight, and I was much happier. I need to figure this out in a hurry.
