Insanity - Day 16

Yesterday was the first Fit Test since I started Insanity.  The results were I would say non-conclusive lol.  In areas I seem to be real good at I seem to either have lost ground or not progressed while I saw some pretty good improvements through other exercises:

Move	Test 1	Test 2	delta	% Delta
1 - Switch kicks	101	95	-6	0.941
2 - Power Jacks	43	43	0	1.000
3 - Power Knees	71	84	13	1.183
4 - Power Jumops	44	55	11	1.250
5 - Globe Jumps	10	9	-1	0.900
6 - Suicide Jumps	16	21	5	1.313
7 - Push-Up Jacks	21	26	5	1.238
8 - Low Plank Oblique	36	40	4	1.111

Noteworthy though how easy was the warm-up the second time around.  I had forgot that the fit-test warms up with just one sequence instead of three like the workouts.  When I took the first Fit Test the warm-up felt hard.  This time around I was surprised how short the warm-up was.  I think I may not have "brought it" all.  Though on the upside, my forms really improved in these 2 weeks.

I found that 2 days off Insanity in a row work real good for me.   It allows me to continue running hard.  Today 7/17, I did St  Andrews so I'll give me partial credit for Plyo that I skipped because I had to pick family at the airport.  During the run I noticed that my heart rate on these average hills (about .5 miles, 17% grade) peaked at 149 BPM.  I think Insanity has helped in that aspect.

Tomorrow, it's Pure Cardio / Abs.  I'll blog more about that ab workout.  it's very different from other ab workouts.
