Insanity by laurentye

Insanity

You know what's insane? Insanity. For those that don't know, it's a series of "extreme" work out videos. I had heard lots about these videos but was sort of sceptical. Until yesterday. I did it for the first time yesterday morning and wow, I can barely move today. Muscles that I didn't even know I had are so sore.

The very sad part is that I didn't even do one of the full, real workouts. All I did was the "introduction/fit test" which is just a series of moves to see how many I can do of each in one minute, for comparison later. But even just that had me out of breath, dripping with sweat, and at one point dizzy and nauseous. A bit nervous now about doing the actual workout.

Well, now it's off to work I go! Happy Friday everyone!
Oh Gosh. That does sound insane. Keep it away from me. I'll just keep my muffin top. :/

No pain no gain, so they say! Good luck if you continue!

Too funny, my friend and her hubby just started this workout 2 weeks ago. They say it is hard but love it. They say so far this is harder than the P90X, which they did complete. Good luck to you!! You can do it! :) Great photo too!!

Awesome focus and perspective. That sounds...painful! Make sure you look after yourself!
Re: Apparently I am, but I'm getting a little full now :p

Wow never heard of that dvd sounds awesome. Take it easy to start with sounds hard. Nice capture also with your usual trademark charateristics. Great shot

Sounds like a DVD to take in stages :) Just do the warm-up and cool-down next time :) I think I'll just stick with my ballet workout DVD...

I really do think the clue is in the title! You're braver than I am!
June 25th, 2011  
Love the focus
June 25th, 2011

Cool. I get tired just thinking about the workout. LOL

Is that your sweat on the book? It gets easier as you go, or so they tell me.

I tell you what is good too, Kinect. There's some excellent exercise games on it and it works well. Kinect adventures is pretty fun and gives a work out, but the best one is "The biggest loser" for Kinect. It's excellent.

Great DOF! Picking up that stack would be enough for me! I do like a good sore day though!

You are a wonderful saleswoman, and I'm going to google insanity and order!
Your image is wonderful!

Great DOF.
My husband has this and has been doing it for awhile. :] Good luck!

Wow, you're brave to try out 'insanity' workouts! Just the name scares me off instantly!

Great focus and composition!

Nice work! Doesn't it feel so satisfying after an intense workout, despite the pain and soreness? Keep it up!
