Insanity Update

You will note that I am still alive!  I started a 60 day "Insanity" workout on May 28th and finished on August 5th. Yes, that is one week longer than it should have taken but I ended up injuring myself dragon boating (who knew you could do that?) and taking a week off to heal.  Let me just say I am completely hooked on this exercise program.  I have never been pushed so hard to do what looks like the simplest forms of exercise.  I have also never sweat as much in my life.  It was pretty cool (or hot) by the third week when I started dripping sweat halfway through the warm-up!  Gross, I know, but I'm into the way my body works and love seeing progress like this.  And speaking of progress, I completely changed my skinny body!  I have "pipes" or "guns", whatever you want to call it, my arms look amazing.  So do my butt and my legs.  My husband concurs!  The only things that don't look as I had hoped are my abs. Don't get me wrong, my stomach looks MUCH better but not the washboard abs I was hoping for.  Not to worry, Beachbody.com (the company who did the Insanity workout) has also done a Hip Hop Abs workout that I am going to try next.  This is the same company that did the P90X workout, that requires weights and things, but I prefer the simplicity of Insanity!  Kind of says a lot about me!!
