Today marks the beginning of week 2 for my Insanity workout. I am very proud of myself for continuing on and pushing myself to work harder. Looking back at my week 1 pictures, I already see results. My waist has gotten a bit smaller and I noticed my stomach area is a little flatter. Also, everything else (arms, legs, butt) are much more toned.
Last week (week 1) was tough. My entire body, especially my legs/calves were very sore. It made me walk awkwardly but I pushed through and kept up with my daily sessions. Eventually on day 4 (cardio recovery) my legs no longer ached. The workouts are all about 30-45 minutes long. At first, I thought that was long but it really goes by quick. Whenever I workout, I will always wear just a sports bra and pants/shorts and do my exercises in front of a mirror. Being able to see myself in the mirror allows me to do the exercises correctly and keeps me motivated, especially when I see my tummy fat giggle!
To keep track of my progress, I will use a tape measure instead of depending on the scale. My week 2 measurements are: (Hopefully I did the measurements correct)
- Bust: 33.5 in
- Chest: 29 in
- Waist: 28 in
- Hips: 33 in
- Thighs: 21.5 in
- Calves: 13.5 in
- Upper arm: 10.5 in
- Forearm: 9.5 in

With my face
I promise I do not always workout with makeup, but I just got home from the mall and figured I will just take my "face" off when I take a shower after my Insanity session.
Stay tuned for next weeks update/results!
