    Why am I having headaches!

    This may seem like a silly/obvious question, but are you drinking enough water? Dehydration is a VERY common cause of headaches as is low blood sugar. It may not the problem, but I figured I mention it just in case.

    Lets Get Insanity Tue 8/4

    Good Morning, Elena, Great job with the morning workout! What I do is add an extra few minutes to do my own pre warm-up. Usually about 5 minutes on the treadmill works for me. It DOES make a difference. I'm still struggling with the right balance of calories after years and years of...

    Lets Get Insanity Mon 8/3

    Usually yes. But today Plyo was much tougher then the first time I did it. I blame that on doing the Fit Test right before it. I'm sure the 14 mile bike ride on my "rest" day may not have helped. Not that a 14 mile bike ride should be a big deal, but it was my first ride of the year and my...

    Lets Get Insanity Mon 8/3

    Becky, I still need to replace the battery in my HRW (watch portion), but my GWF is reading about 360 to 400 calorie burn on these workouts. I'm sure that's a little low for me. Okay so here were my numbers. I put my original numbers in () Switch Kicks: (58 or 68?) 60 Last time I...

    Lets Get Insanity Mon 8/3

    Welcome back Elena! I'll have to BBL to finish up here, but I just wanted to tell you all I'm an IDIOT. :D I did Fit Test and Plyo Circuit today. I screwed up the push-up jacks. Instead of leaving my arms stationary, I lifted my arms and legs in and out. :eek: I did like 5 or 6 of them...

    LETS GET INSANE 8/2

    I'll let you know tomorrow. ;) I would not double up any other workout other then the fit test personally. That's more of Annette's gig. ;) Becky, Welcome. If you can handle both STS and Insanity great. You may find you need to decrease the intensity of one or the other, or both, but if...

    early morning insanity

    Hi Kariev, I work out first thing in the morning. I'm used to it. I have found that I do an extra 5 minute warm up before starting insanity. I find I can give it my all much quicker then when I don't do the extra 5 minute warm up. Probably because I'm working out within 10 or 15 minutes of...

    LETS GET INSANE 8/2

    Like kariev, Today is my rest day. I was supposed to golf 18 holes but my friend screwed up her elbow so we canceled for another time. Annette, Wow! I am spent when I finish just PC, I could not imagine doing more. Brenda, Way to go with the fit test yesterday. and 4 pounds in two weeks...

    worst insanity move

    It would be hard for me to pick. One day a move seems near impossible to me and the next day it seems easy (okay none of the moves seem easy) but you know what I mean. The ones that seem the toughest most often though are the power jumps. I just can't get my knees very high on those. :o For...

    LETS GET INSANE-8/1

    Good Morning All, Just finished up PC and CA. Have I mentioned I love, love, love PC yet. ;) Word of advice, do the stretch PC and CA between the two workouts. I decided to hold off on the stretch till after I did both and found that my hip-flexers and hamstrings were a bit too tight to...

    Hello from some Roadtrippers!

    My guess is their too busy enjoying themselves and soaking up every second of what I'm sure will seem like a short weekend to update us. I DO however expect a full report the second they are home. Unpacking can wait. :D

    LET'S GET INSANE - TGIF, 7/31

    Good Morning to all my fellow loonies :p, Since no one mentioned it, I assume no one here is going on the Cathe RT? I also did CPR (power and res). The globe jumps killed me on the first round, but I was surprised that I felt good on the 2nd and 3rd set(I think we did a 3rd set :o) I paused...
