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 12 - Back in the Saddle

Trying to get back in the saddle after take a few... OK, several... ALRIGHT, many days off.  My workout partner, John Huey, lost his grandfather-in-law who happened to be a very popular man around the area, state, and nation.  Anyway, he was unavailable from Thur - Tues dealing with family issues.  I also took some time off to work on my schoolwork.

Anyway, I did workout on Thursday, but it was only half-hearted and not worth noting... However, today we did, or I should say tried to do, one of the Insanity's MAX cardio workouts... I hit my HR max (183) no less than 6 times and was just bloody sick by the time the 50 minute workout was over.
