Phase II of INSANITY - Digging Even Deeper

Steve and Sherri headed into month two of INSANITY and oh boy we sure had to muster up some strength and stamina to get through this workout. May we say that Phase II is not for the weak minded because it is all about MAXIMIZING!

The set up for this month is MAX Interval Circuit, MAX Plyo, MAX Cardio, MAX Recovery, MAX Cardio w/ Cardio ABS and Core Cardio & Balance (do you see a theme here?)

This past week was a recovery week where we spent five days focusing on Core Cardio & Balance. This was also a time to let our muscles recover from the previous month's workouts.

After we took our fit test, we jumped right into the MAX Interval Workout. Let us just say two things: 1)Know how long your workout are before you begin. The previous workouts were only 40 minutes in length, but this month's workouts are 60 minutes long. We failed to allow ourselves enough time this morning to complete the full workout. This was disappointing on one hand, because we did not have sufficient time to complete the routine. However, on the other hand it was a blessing, because neither of us had the stamina or strength we needed to complete the workout (even if we did have the time). 2) We realized very quickly that from this point forward,the fit test will have to be completed on a non-workout day.

We can already tell from this morning's routine, that we are in for some amazingly hard workouts over the course of this next month. We are looking forward to the challenge and we are excited to push through it. Folks, this is where the rubber meets the road! So bring it on, we are going to DIG even DEEPER!!
