Insanity, Days 44-49

oh man almost an entire week without blogging!!!

Day 44: Max Interval Plyo
Day 45: Nothing as I went snowboarding, not hard at all though, and was busy for the rest of the day
Day 46: Max Interval Circuit
Day 47: Max Interval Plyo
Day 48: Max Cardio Conditioning + Insane Abs
Day 49: Max Interval Sports Training

So I TOTALLY accidentally skipped Max Cardio Conditioning because my days are all out of whack and the spreadsheet was apparently to the right a little and Max Cardio Conditioning was hidden. Oops. Shrug.

Pretty disappointed that I did not work out on Sunday, but what can you do huh? Can't be too hard on yourself. So, nothing too much new here besides the last two; I can feel myself getting stronger but these work outs are so tough, man. Max Cardio Conditioning + Insane Abs together took almost 1.5 hours. Insane Abs is not easy but I'll admit I like it more than the other ab work out from month 1. These are short bursts of exercises done a couple of times. When you have 0:15 on a clock, once you rest, you've only got a few more seconds left anyway so you might as well power through.

Interval Sports Training was good except I hated the gymnastics stuff. V-push ups are SO uncomfortable. And I'm not very comfortable on my hands, so I felt really stupid during the bronco jumps because I doubt I was getting more than 6" off the ground. I think it's a mix between being afraid of tipping over and having the strength to neither push nor hold myself that high.

I've stopped doing the cool down stretches pretty much. I don't have the patience for them and I blame lack of time as an excuse. I wonder if that's the reason I'm sore today after yesterday's Interval Sports Training work out. That being said, I would rather be sore than do the cool-down.

My calendar looks awesome -- only 2 rows of work outs left! I will be done by the first couple of days in April. So excited to get this finished and to say that I've done it!
