This was a long one - 1 hour of tough workouts. I got to about 40 minutes in and then lost all my energy. Exercises I normally manage ok were very tough. I really had to focus and "dig deep" to get through the barrier. I can liken it to when I am running and I hit a point where I am knackered and need to push through. Once I'm through it I then go on to perform well.
What hit me as well was the full body drills which are in the 3rd group of exercises. You don't expect this tough an exercise late on in the workout and my body finds it really tough to get through it. I certainly cannot keep up with the people on the DVD with the speed they do the full body drills at. They can manage to complete 2 sets in about 45 secs, I'm lucky to get one.
And so that is my last "intensive" workout with Insanity. What's left is a recovery workout tomorrow and then the fitness test. I then have to consider what comes after Insanity. I want to continue with it, but also want to take up the running and get back to the gym. We'll see next week when it's all over.
