Insanity Workout Day 149: David Johnny Five

6-2-10: It is always a bit frustrating when there is an extra day in the weekend, yet somehow every hour seems to be accounted for…and this from the world of a single guy…and from an Accountant (ba dum bum). So, while every day off should be a “gimme” in terms of fitting a workout in, I find it really does not turn out that way all that often. Still, not a terrible week. Still got five workouts in, which is great, but know, in my heart of hearts, how close I was to getting that coveted sixth workout in. Ah well.

Since climbing over the warm-up wall, I have yet to look back. Completing the power and resistance warm-up, still resists me, but I feel myself pushing a little bit harder and going a little bit faster for the other warm-ups. The warm-up is now my beotch. Never easy, always breathing heavy, with torrential downpours of sweat, I still will never go back to not being able to complete the warm-up.

The Pure Cardio workout intrigues me most. How am I going to get to that point where I can get through those fifteen minutes after the warmup and stretching? I barely get through any of the two minute segments of the interval training, and at least there are breaks in those ones. I feel I just need to make a conscious effort to get a little bit farther each time. Should I slow down a bit? Perhaps that is the trick. Go more for continuous motion rather than crazy intensity.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I am Shaun T and I say NO! Have you lost your mind puny human? Is the name of my program “Happy Comfy Slow and Steady”? It is Insanity and you will bow down to its awesome power. You will give 120%, 150% of the time.

Other than the workout, the meals were fun over the weekend. Got some delicious pizza one day, delicious ribs that Rich made (seven hour cook time) another day, and awesome chicken, sausage, brownies, etc. at the parents house another day. I tried my best to modify the other meals to make these not seem like such a blatant disregard to the meal plan and I think I succeeded.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I am Shaun T and you are a FAILURE! You think you are fixed it by eating less your other meals?!!! I will eat your soul puny human!

Next week will be a good week. I can feel it!
