Week 6 Insanity Fitness test and AOB

I haven't been keeping in touch here, I have been a bit busy plus my daughter ate my phone...seriously! She did! And I have been feeling too mean to get another smart phone. She is still in the eating stage and my old one could be fixed...couldn't it?

So here are my stats for my Fitness Test this week. Some improvements. At least my switch kicks are not as miserable as last time.


Switch kicks     120
Power Jacks        63
Power Knees     120
Power jumps     31
Globe jumps      12
Suicide Jumps    21
Push up Jacks    31
Low plank obliques   84


Month Two Insanity is definitely more challenging. I am finding it do-able at least BUT Shaun T is mad in one respect. How many push ups does he expect us to do in one hour? And there are types of push ups I have never even heard about. In one workout, I actually counted. I did more than 90 push ups in just under an hour (mixed in with other exercises of course). That is just MAD MAD MAD.

I miss running. I haven't really been running because I don't want to exhaust myself with the insanity workouts. When I finish with this, I plan to actively work on my speed and distance.

Just checking in, hope you are all keeping active.

  1. My fellow Insaniac, I agree, Shaun T is mad. About running,its actually not that bad now that am on a half Marathon schedule. I run 4 times a week. I have to do 21km each week. On Saturday I did 6.4 km which was a first for me, at a comfortable pace I did it in 35 minutes. I should do 9 Kmart by end of the week. I think if you keep good form n cover your set distance, speed will follow. Sorry for the long post, you've been a fat girl, you know how good it feels to accomplish a fitness goal n go beyond.

    1. I agree, it feels very good to accomplish a goal. I will probably run tomorrow. The freedom is addictive

  2. Hands down for doing insanity. I have tried it twice, I seem to quit it mid way month two. The max workouts are INSANE. Kudos. I'm now doing the Jilian Micheals Body Revolution. Insanity is not for the faint at heart LITERALLY. Kudos Again.

    1. It gets challenging but I can say my cardio is the best it's been since having baby. I haven't tried Body revolution but from what I've heard, it starts of manageable but gets difficult. Thanks for visiting. How is body revolution taking you?
