That was pretty much the gist of today's Insanity Max 30 workout. Normally after each set of exercises (1:30 or so) you get a 30 second water break. However in the day 5 workout that was not the case. Today's workout titled "Friday Fight: Round I" was a collaboration of all of the moves we have learned this week wrapped into one heart pounding, sweat pouring, muscle tearing, lungs screaming 30 minute workout. Ridiculous.
And with that week 1 of Insanity Max 30 is in the books. Now I get 2 days of rest before I get to go back at it all again next week! Only 7 weeks to go! On Saturdays they have an optional "Pulse" video that you can do instead of resting. Guess what I'm not doing?
Here's a quick recap of my "Max Out" times from each workout:
Day 1 - Cardio Challenge - 8:36
Day 2 - Tabata Power - 17:24
Day 3 - Sweat Intervals - 11:20
Day 4 - Tabata Power - 22:23 (Note the 5 minute improvement over Day 2!)
Day 5 - Friday Fight Rd I - 8:24
I feel like I gave it a pretty good go for the first week. Granted I was doing the modified moves for a majority of the work out and due to my back issues there were a couple of moves I couldn't do at all so I just did moves that I could do during those parts. All in all a successful week. My arms and legs are tired, I can feel muscles hurting that I didn't know I had! I keep telling myself it will be worth it in the end!
That's all I have for today. I am going to go and enjoy my two days off from Insanity and gear my mind up to tackle week 2!
Wishing you success in your journey!
