One more day until I'm done week 4 & more importantly...MONTH 1!!!! I can't believe it!! It went really fast & I'm so excited at how far I've come!! Today was pure cardio & cardio abs. I didn't get home early enough to workout before dinner so I waited until I digested a bit & worked out after I ate. Bad idea!! I just don't feel like I can give it as much as when I workout before dinner. So from now on I'm going to have to get it in before dinner. Since I'll be done working in a few weeks that shouldn't be a problem!! And since next week is recovery week I'm hoping that will help, too.
Today was the first day I tried my new heart rate monitor, too. The only thing I'm not liking is that I can't get the monitor to give me a reading every time. I had to pause my workout a few times to get the reading!! And I'm sure my heart rate came down a bit while waiting, too. Oh well, it gave me an idea. It said 311 calories burned with pure cardio & 131 with cardio abs. Sounds a bit low, but it also had my heart rate staying around 130. It's usually higher! We'll see how it goes tomorrow with...PLYO!
So, how ironic that the one last workout I need to get through to officially finish month 1 is plyo!! I am ready for the challenge!! Looking forward to wrapping up my first month of Insanity, getting through the recovery week & then jumping head first into month 2!!
I definitely have a long way to go in terms of getting my body in the shape I'm hoping for. But I am feeling stronger & I'm getting through a lot of the exercises better than when I first started!! Time to keep pushing play & keep digging deeper!!!!
