So the third calendar week of Insanity was not my strongest.
I skipped a weekday, took one short day in the gym, skipped Friday… The workouts themselves are running together.
A slight ankle twinge there, a pull in a hamstring there… nothing really has
distinguished one day from another.
Thursday September 20th was plyometric day, which
continues to be my least favorite day. I did also make it to the gym that
afternoon for some elliptical. Friday, September 21st, I forgot to
set my alarm, so I missed the morning workout. I started doing stuff around my
apartment after work, so I didn’t do an Insanity workout OR gym cardio. But I
also wasn’t just sitting there, so I guess it’s not the worst thing in the
world.
This was the first weekend I consciously skipped Insanity to
get some basic cardio back in my routine. Saturday, I hit the elliptical for 90
minutes, the bike for 15 minutes, and the stair climber for 15 minutes! It felt good to just work it out. Sunday I did 90 total minutes, another
successful gym trip.
After Sunday Funday and trouble sleeping, Monday morning
came way too quickly. But I made it
through Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs, plus a short elliptical workout after work.
Tuesday was supposed to be the Cardio
Recovery Day. However, I had an event to
go to after work so instead of doing a stretching, no-calorie-burning workout,
I jumped on the elliptical for 30 minutes in the morning. Unfortunately, I had a few too many glasses
of wine that evening, so I was hurting too much to get up for Insanity in the
morning. Aaaaaaand then I decided to just take a total day off and lay on the
couch after work. Uh oh! I cannot let
myself get lazy.
