Insanity Week #2 Complete



Last week max time -- 9:12

Week #2 Complete and in the books!

 
This week was a bit of a struggle.  Feeling really tired this week, body might be in shock from all the cardio workouts maybe?  In any case, we pushed through! 
 
We did notice a change in our Max out times!  Only by a couple minutes but it's still an improvement and still getting stronger each day.

Last week's Max time -- 8:57

This next week's plan is to switch up the meal plan a little.  After reading the book Eat Clean Diet - Stripped by Tosca Reno, I'm going to follow her food plan for the week.  Its very similar to the Max 30 meal plan.
I did a summery on that book earlier this week if you want to check that out you can find it HERE.


It's not a diet really, it's just choosing to eat clean and gives you some recipes and a 28 day meal plan.  
 
I sat down to make up a grocery list from the meal plan and get prepared for the week.  Week after week this helps me to stay on track.  Doesn't leave you at the fridge wondering what to eat and grabbing at your kids cookies.  When this is printed off for me and posted I know exactly what to be grabbing for. 
 
Here's what the week looks like if you'd like to try it out as well:

Heading into week #3 of Insanity Max 30!
The workouts switch up slightly this week as well.
They get a bit more intense.  They give you different moves to keep all those different muscles moving.  I'm sure we're going to be challenged this week.  I'm scared..... lol 
 
But with each week we get a new chance to push harder to get to that next fitness level!

Here's what's going down in Week #3:
MONDAY -- Cardio Challenge and ab attack
TUESDAY -- Tabata Strength -- This is where it switches up from weeks 1 and 2.  Shaun T introduces this halfway through month 1 because he takes it up a notch.  There is no rest. 
WEDNESDAY -- Sweat Fest (bonus workout) and ab attack
THURSDAY -- Tabata Strength
FRIDAY -- Friday Fight: Round 1
SATURDAY - optional - pulse and ab attack

This program has pushed me harder than I ever would have pushed workout out at the gym.  All in the convenience of my home.  Only putting in 30 minutes a day, Monday to Friday, (Saturday and Sunday you have off for rest)  

It feels so great when you can get this done first thing in the morning.  You max out and get through that tough challenging workout, and then you feel amazing after completing it!  Sets you on the right foot and mindset for the rest of the day. 
 
We also tried a new dinner recipe this week and some Shakeology Ice cream!!  I've shared them in the links.  Be sure to check out the Shakeology ice cream if you're craving for a treat!  Check them out in the links.

I'm finding more and more that fitness seems to be all mental.  Get yourself in the right mindset about food.  About getting through your workouts and you will get to your goals. You can't get their talking to yourself in a negative way.  I truly believe that you can achieve anything that the mind believes.  Make that decision and stick to it!
