Fit Test Results

Ok, I didn't get time to post yesterday but I did do the fit test for Insanity. here are my stats:

Switch Kicks: 118 (or 59 if you count 2 kicks as 1)

Power Jacks: 40

Power Knees: 100

Power Jumps: 30 (good grief these were hard!)

Globe Jumps: 10 (these aren't as difficult but I was tired! 4 jumps equal 1)

Suicide Jumps: 16

Push-up Jacks: 16 (why are the hardest ones at the end? haha)

Low Plank Oblique: 50 (or 25 if you count 2 knees as 1)

Ok, there need to be improvements but the numbers aren't too bad. I do like what the guy in the DVD said when asked how he felt as compared to the first day. He said he felt the same. Some may be looking for improvement and him feeling better but that's just the thing. He is getting more fit and pushing himself harder. His numbers were higher so he should feel just as out of breath.

I think this shows the importance of keeping track by writing things down or measurements. We often look for changes in the wrong areas while missing the significant ones.

We expect our weight to go down and are depressed when it doesn't, but we are becoming more tone.

I have to say, one of my fears with this program is that I will lose my muscle tone since I won't be following my standard weight workouts in, but I have to look at the bigger picture. I have too much "stuffing" out the outside for anyone to even see my muscle tone. I really need to lean out and focus on eating properly FIRST.

Ok enough talk for now! I need to go to my second workout. Hopefully I will post later today!

See ya later!
