INSANITY®

[4N2NR]

I am doing the INSANITY® workouts. I started with a group on 15 February. So far so good. Nothing drastic - just a little weight loss and some increase in endurance and aerobic capacity. Nothing really measurable or visible. The workouts are really good. Besides cardio there is a bit of plyometrics (jump training). I am having some challenges there with gravity. Being fat and overweight with a bum knee makes it a challenge to get much height. However, in the past month I have improved a tiny bit. I am taking a joint supplement (glucosamine/chondroitin) and a multivitamin. I also do a whey protein shake as a recovery drink after the workouts. I haven't really changed my eating habits much at this point. It's a 9 week (63 day) program and I am keeping a weekly journal. I will post the end results when I complete the program. I already have the P90X® program and am considering doing it after I complete this one. We shall see...a repeat of this or move on to something different...

Got through this quote and found it funny."Chess does not make people mad it makes mad people sane." It heals insanity
