Insanity begins!

I have decided to do the Insanity workout. It is put out by the company Beachbody, which is the same company that makes P90X. I picked Insanity because it is only 60 days and does not require weights or any equipment, and because the workouts are 30 minutes or less.

I started yesterday with the fit test and I was sucking wind after just the second exercise. These only last 60 seconds each with a 60 second break. I thought I was in good shape, but not good enough for Insanity. I had to constantly take breaks throughout the fit test.

I am very active playing sports 2-3 times a week mostly flag football and Australian rules football. I wanted to do Insanity to build up my core and increase my cardiovascular fitness. I will be posting pictures of my body before and every 2 weeks until I finish the Insanity course. The only roadblocks I think I will run into is the meal plan. I am not a big eater, and usually eat 1-2 meals a day. Insanity calls for 5-7 meals a day. I am hoping that with the increased exercise that my appetite picks up as well.

Today I start day 2, which is plyometric cardio circuit. I am nervous, but excited as well.
