C and I have been on vacation and have had no access to a scale. Plus our food consumption have been primarily eating out, but we generally felt good afterward, because of our lent constraints.
Workout
My thoughts: I really like the abs workout add-on. First, there is absolutely no sit-ups or crunches. Personally, I am not a fan of that. Instead it revolves around various plank and C-sit workouts. These feel much more effective. I have to pause still this second time around, but I already feel better than the first time we did it last Saturday.
One good sign of results is my fitness test. I had an overall 31.08% improvement. {Calculated by evaluating each individual exercise's percentage improvement and then averaging those percentage improvements} I have noticed that I can go through most of the warm up now without taking breaks. So I have focused on increasing my speed/intensity and still have to pause. My form is definitely improving as I maintain the same intensity, which makes me feel great! Lastly, I can fit into some of my tighter pants, without feeling like it is squeezing the life out of me.
C's thoughts: I am feeling better in general and Insanity has become a habit. The moves are not exactly getting easier, but my form is definitely improving. With it my endurance has also improved and it is noticeable with specific workouts. The ones I am struggling with include switch kicks but that is due to my tender ankle and desire to avoid re-injury. This ab workout is brutal, but I have done the P90X ones. The difference... P90X left me with a burn in my abs. This is definitely more of a whole core workout. Personally I prefer the P90X ab workout better.
My fitness test results were an overall 24.38% improvement. The noticeable improvement is after not even 2 and a half weeks. It will be great to see what 60 days will bring.
On a side note, we did our workout in the hotel barefoot. I definitely do not recommend it.
