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 8 - Tues - Kenpo Karate

So today was cardio day and like I mentioned in an earlier post, I'm shelving the Insanity workouts for a while.  This will continue to give my hip more time to rest and heal.  Although, this doesn't mean that I'm not doing any cardo... today's Kenpo workout was a great cardio workout.  To ensure I kept a good HR throughout the 50 min workout I either ran in place, did jumping jacks, or did some jump rope during my breaks. 

Also, last week after the Kenpo workout my obliques and back muscles were extremely sore from all the punches that we did... so I'm looking forward to that tomorrow... lol
