Turning back time at 36

Hello,

I've decided that it's time. Time for me to shed the extra weight. Time for me to clear out the years of gunk building in my veins and arteries. Time for me to regain my life!

My title may be confusing, so let me explain. I've tried the popular P90X workout and it is great. Recently, I've tried another product from Beachbody called "Insanity". Let me tell you... IT IS INSANE! However, at my age (36) it's also hard on the joints. There is a ton of jump training in back-to-back days, and it was just too much. So, here is what I've done.

I took the best of P90X and the best of Insanity and I've combined them for one awesome workout! On Mon, Wed, and Fri, I do the Insanity cardio stuff. On Tues and Thur, I do the P90X stuff. I match the workouts with what the program says to do on the first month. It may sound complicated, but it's really not. Let the X-Sanity begin!!

Feel free to add comments or post questions and I'll be glad to try and answer them. No laughing at my pics, though!

Week 5 - Max Interval Circuit

Only about 15 minutes ago I was begging for the sweet kiss of death to take me away... seriously, the new "Max" part of Insanity is totally bananas.  The entire workout is 58 minutes long and I had a HR or 170 at 6 minutes into the workout!  At one point I felt real woozy and checked it and was at 183... Another thing I will have to remember is to bring a bigger container of water... I ran out with 15 minutes of workout time remaining... geez... that was rough! 

Chest, Shoulder and Tris tomorrow... oh boy.
