Insanity, Day 61: Max Cardio Conditioning

Was late for work.. no time to do Insane Abs. I wanted to make up for it this weekend but I think that's when I'm supposed to do another round of Insane Abs! Maybe tonight? Or tomorrow night?

I need to redo my schedule (A-FREAKIN-GAIN). Waking up at 7 leaves me no room to make juice -- I haven't juiced in 2 days because I was late to work!! :( I think I should muscle it up and sleep at 10 or 10:30, wake up at 6:30.

Last night I ate two ice cream sandwiches, but this morning I didn't feel as sluggish as I did yesterday. I remembered that yesterday I did the HARDEST work out (Max Plyometrics) and today's was good. I don't like circuits so much. I like doing different things, and in Cardio Conditioning you do all different things. It's a circuit in the sense that you're doing one different thing after another, but you don't repeat the circuit. The first thing you do in this one is do football runs (run in place with your legs wide) and then get down into low plank. I can't stay in low plank, but I stayed as low as I could. I'm getting better at this: Shaun T. goes at a pretty fast pace, so in the past I was barely getting up when he called for down again. This time I lasted longer through the fast part (but didn't last all the way through). Level 1 Drills (aka burpees) are harder than they look. I find myself cheating by keeping my butt in the air. No good. I didn't do any of the jump ropes in the 8 jump ropes / 8 hop squats because you have to lift your knees high and I really suck at that.

Speaking of knees, my left knee acts up. Sometimes it hurts randomly. This isn't new, but something that *is* new is how I can't sit on the bottom half of my legs in a certain way. I'm sure it's because of the spill I took while snowboarding earlier this month. I hope it heals soon, and I hope it's not getting worse with Insanity. Either way, I have 6 days left, and then it's on to P90X!
