The final day of Insanity has arrived and I started by doing all my body measurements as soon as I got up this morning. This is what all the hard work has been for. How much weight I can lose, how much I can lose off my stomach, how fitter, faster and leaner I can become.
I was really apprehensive before I did all the measurements, but once I did I was really pleased with the progress I have made over the 9 weeks.
Overall I have lost 4.7kg (over 10lb) and my weight is now 12st 13lbs. I am really pleased I have got to under 13 stone in 9 weeks. I attribute this to the Insanity programme and the healthy diet I have been on.
The next thing I'm pleased about is my reduction in body fat by 2.4%. This is visible in my physical appearance as my face and waist are both noticeably smaller.
With regard to my waist then I have lost 8.3cm from it - I just know that is down to the Ab's work that is one of the core parts of Insanity. I can see for myself that my stomach is smaller and other people have remarked too. Even though there is still fat there, I can feel my abs are tighter and there is a lot less fat being carried around my waist than before.
These are the key components that I wanted to improve on by doing Insanity : reduce weight, reduce fat, lose the gut. I have achieved that and I am so pleased with the results.
When you look at the rest of the measurements then overall they have all improved :chest and hips have gone down in size, my bicep size and body muscle percentage have both increased (as expected).
Tonight is the final fitness test. I'm confident now that I can do better on my best scores, so bring it on!
