Insanity Week 1 & 2 Review

My Insanity challenge group kicked off on July 8th and my challengers are already seeing some great results!

Week 1:  We all did our Fit Test on day one to gauge our progress over the next 60 days.  Personally, I couldn't do the push-up jacks, so I did modified push-ups instead.

We were all pretty sore the first several days, but it went away by the end of the week.  My husband and I started drinking Results and Recovery formula toward the end of the first week which really seemed to help.  It helps you refuel, re-energize, and most importantly, it helps reduce soreness.  Hallelujah!  

My challengers totally ROCKED it the first week and lost a total of 26 pounds!  How amazing is that?!  I couldn't be more proud of them!

Week 2:  After a week of workouts most of us agreed that Pure Cardio is our favorite.  You go from one exercise to another with no rest breaks in between whereas on the other workouts you do circuit training, so you get a thirty second break between sets.  Some of us had a hard time adjusting our schedules, especially me.  I was getting up about an hour and half earlier to do my workout, but was going to bed at my normal time.  Bad idea.  I was averaging 5-1/2 to 6 hours of sleep a night last week which isn't nearly enough for me. 

Some of us are working through minor setbacks (my jacked up toe being one of them), but we keep pushing play and motivating each other.  I love the positivity this group brings and can't wait to see our 60 day results!
