The Girlz and I are enjoying this Insanity ride!

That 2 week Fit Test was one tough beast! Zilmara and Zarina increased their numbers all the way across the board! I however had a small setback with the Power Jumps...as I have mentioned before...me and excessive jumping do not get along! Ha!

As soon as I got the first jump in, my heart rate shot up and of course the natural course for my body was to weaken...get dizzy and beg me to not do that again! I took several seconds to regroup and I was able to get 14 total Power Jumps in...down from 18 on my first test. The next couple of moves suffered a little because of this setback as well. I really felt like laying on the floor for a few minutes...but I pushed through and increased my numbers for all my other moves. (I did not know my starting numbers at the time either because my daughter was writing our numbers down as we went and we compared them afterwards.)

I went into the test with lifted spirits and I felt confident that I would do better than the first test...and I did...as did Zilmara and Zarina. We have been pushing ourselves through each and every workout for the past 2 weeks and now we can see how it is paying off. We still felt exhausted...but no more exhausted than our first test...the difference was that we improved a lot!

It is amazing what the body can do if you just push it a little more with each workout. My extreme and your extreme are two totally different things I am sure...but knowing that there are limits and heeding them can be the difference between injury and progress. I am very happy with my Insanity progress...I push myself during the workouts and I have improved!

I am really loving this Insanity group that we have and I look forward to the next couple of weeks before I head off to California for my Beachbody Summit trip...then we will be back at it with the MAX workouts! Woohoo!

Let's GOOOOOOOOO!
