OK, so I didn't blog much about round 2 of Insanity. But I did complete the entire 60 day workout again. I really do feel like I get a kick butt workout. However, I think I end up eating too much each day because I justify all the calories I have burned... and I was running a little in the mornings before doing the videos, just to wake me up a little. All in all another great workout.
I have started (courtesy of Tymon Gilliland) the Les Mills Pump workouts.
I have been completing the workouts for about 3 weeks now. The "Rep Affect" is the key to Les Mills Pump. Mix high reps, with moderate weights and kickin' music and you have a fat burning-muscle building workout that is sure to keep you going.
You lift weights 3 days a week and then there are days when it suggests walking 30-45 minutes. I have either run outside or on the elliptical machine. I feel really good each day, but I have to admit that I have felt weird taking days to just complete a flow (stretch/recovery) workout when I am so used to pushing it real hard 6 days a week. There is a fabulous meal/diet plan that comes with the videos. We have started to implement more yummy fruits and veggies into our diet and some actually pretty good vegan recipes! And Dr. Oz has several smoothies that we have been trying too. We are also using a protein powder and glutemin recovery after each workout to help limit the muscle soreness. I am looking forward to the next several months...
