Beachbody INSANITY workout: Month 1 done...

Week 4 of Insanity is done. Halfway through the program, and the results are coming.

Day 1: weight 147 lbs, waist 35 inches, bodyfat 20%
Today: weight 142 lbs, waist 33 inches, bodyfat 17.9%

The workouts are intense. Maybe someday I'll get through one without taking extra breaks :) ...I absolutely recommend that anyone doing these workouts use a heart monitor every time (the one I use is the Timex T5H881 -- about $60 and tracks heart rate, calories burned, etc. Determine your max heart rate using simple tests described on pages 12-14 of this PDF from Timex).

And now (*gulp*) ...I'd told myself that after a month of Insanity, I'd order the Asylum workout. OK, just ordered it...done. So after Insanity is done, next up will be the 30-day Asylum program. Then I'll probably do another cycle of the 90-day P90X (did P90X for a year before Insanity), and by then P90X2 should be available (coming late this year). As FSM is my witness, I will get in the best shape of my life!
