Don't pause the fit test. You're not after cardio.

While my cardio was where it should have been, the muscle movements for running certainly are not in condition from doing Insanity. It took a week or so of very light run/walking to gradually re-condition my body for a run. I'm a month removed from the Insanity and I just went on a 8-mile run the other day. Didn't breath hard through the whole run and felt great afterwards. No way I would have thought I'd be at this point so early. So the Insanity DID help in terms of weight loss/conditioning. I just had to gradually get my body used to the mechanics/pounding of a run. I'm sure if I were to start Insanity over again, even a month removed, I'd be huffing and struggling again, but I'd be starting from a different place. |
Just got Insanity today.
Anyone have any good recommendations for cross training shoes? |

http://s7ondemand1.scene7.com/is/ima...5,0&iccEmbed=0 Link My recommendation is not to get anything that restricts motion much. I had some shoes that were "stability" type running shoes. I think they restricted my motion too much and really tore up my plantar faciitis. It is better with the above shoes. |
Just did the fitness test... Holy jeez I'm out of shape. That was emberassing.
But I'm really focused on doing this, so I'm not too down about it haha. Gunna put these numbers on the wall to motivate me or something. Can already tell I'm gunna need better shoes....... |
I want to see someone who is for sure in shape do the fitness test for the first time. I'm sure it would be hard as hell for them too. I'm not terribly out of shape and that thing whipped my ass.
|
Ugh. Taking the plunge into this. Looking forward to seeing how out of shape I am. lol.

First thing that popped into my head was "I won't have 60 straight days at home to do this until late July, so I should just wait and buy it then."
But, **** it. I'm going to get it, work out while I'm at home until I have the full 60 days to do it and start again. |

I'm going to be out of town basically 3 weeks out of the next 2 months, which means I just have to make myself do some sort of workout while on the road. |

Tried walking/running for awhile. But, never could find a time where both the wife & I could get out to do it because never had a sitter for the kids...so I kind of gave up and let her continue on while I stayed home. I figure I can get an hour a day for this, while the kids run around me screaming "Dad....your belly is big." |

Now that the election is over.....I'll finally have time. I'm going to stop doing what other people have been doing and trying to get back on a schedule by skipping days. If I miss a day....I'll just continue on with the schedule and do my workout for the next day. I'm fat. |
