I know I said I wouldn’t bore you with recaps of Insanity every day but holy moly! I just got done (seriously, sitting here eating my omelet in my workout clothes) and it is just pure craziness (insanity?)! I mean, I knew it would kick my butt but I really loved it! And the workouts are so humbling. You think you are in shape and you basically find out that you’re not. Well, I knew I wasn’t but my friend Jess, certified personal trainer, texted me that she hates push up jacks. Ha!
The knee was just fine. Like I said before, I have no internal pain, it is just the scrape on the outside that is annoying as it heals. It was just fine today for the workout but I couldn’t always bend my knee all the way. It worked well enough though!
I also took before pictures that I am just too embarrassed to share (and they are also locked in the camera anyway!). I forgot measurements but I will take them tomorrow morning before my workout. My starting weight I will use 156lbs and 26% Body Fat (scale and BF calculator are also at home in NJ). The BF could be more but that is what was the last time I checked. Maybe we should round up to 27%? My goal is 24 or less for now which will put me in the “Fitness” range according to the American Council on Exercise. Less than 20% would be so cool (in healthy terms – i.e. athletic) but sounds like too much work for me. Haha!
So that’s all the babble for today. I have TONS of work to do for school. 3 Quantum assignments, 3 Math Methods assignments, lots of reading, and a presentation for my group meeting next week. Off to be productive! Have a great Tuesday everyone!!
I set my goal at 22% because it was the low end for old broads like me. I figured don’t set an easy goal…but because I can be compulsive, I didn’t want to set a crazy goal like 14% (where women tend to show a six-pack) because …
When you work for THAT goal, there has to be a reason: pretty much that reason is you’re modeling or you are doing body competitions.
Models and body competitors WORK for their body. I don’t mean it’s hard, I mean it’s their career.
I already have one 🙂
