Beachbody Insanity Week 3: Fit Test and Overeating!

Adriana from Beachbody Insanity feels like... crap?
“Adriana, tell me how you feel!”
“I feel like sh*t!”

Tuesday, February 12 was my birthday. It was also Week 3, Day 2 of Insanity. Of course, it’s possible to treat my birthday as a “cheat day” when it comes to my calorie count and exercise, and get back to the program on the next day. I ended up taking a little break when it comes to calorie counting for the week, but I did keep up with the exercise schedule.

The workouts this week were the same as before, with a Fit Test on Monday to check my progress, followed by Plyometric Cardio Circuit, Pure Cardio/Cardio Abs, Cardio Recovery, Cardio Power & Resistance, and Plyometric Cardio Circuit (second time). My Fit Test numbers were not dramatically increased compared to Day One, but I did see some small increases on certain exercises, as well as a definite improvement in form and stamina. I also noticed how the Fit Test is a shortened Insanity workout, with the same warm up circuit.

I am getting better at surviving the last 10 minutes of the workout, but I am still modifying (or just watching) the plank moves at the end of some workouts. I mean, who needs to do ski drills followed by In and Outs, repeated several times? For the Level 1 Drills, I did Mountain Climbers in a standing position rather than the plank position.

The workouts aren’t getting easier, because I am increasing my intensity whenever possible, and taking fewer breaks. I don’t know if I am thankful for the same workouts each week in a different order, or if some new workouts would be a nice change. Most important of all, though: Still injury-free, after three weeks!
