So I finally Got back into the Insanity workout today.  It has been a long time coming, but I am finally back into action.  Today I did the Max Cardio Conditioning Insanity Workout, and it was a tough one to jump back in with.  It has been about three weeks since I got terribly sick, and my body definitely felt weak today.  Everything was a struggle,  I am also still fighting of this cold.  I feel good enough to workout though, I had a little hard time breathing and my ears wouldn’t pop, so it was a little annoying.  On top of my sinuses still being plugged, my legs felt like lead, my legs definitely knew that they haven’t been worked out in awhile.

Today’s Insanity workout was a very tough workout, and I am sure it would have been tough even if I was in better shape.  After the warm ups and the stretching, it is pretty much non stop for 32 minutes straight.  The only time you take breaks is when Shaun T is showing you a workout that you are unfamiliar with.

This workout will definitely get your blood pumping, it is fast action and sweat dripping.  I really struggled today with the cardio power moves.  Anything that involved any strength I really struggled with.  It is weird how much ground you can lose physically when you stop working out even just for three weeks.  The Flu really takes a toll on the body, it has taken my body so long to recover.  I don’t think I had the swine flu, but who knows…most people get over the Swine flu without any medication at all anyways.

I really want to finish this last month strong, so I got to get re-focused, and motivated again.  The hardest part is getting motivated again to start working out.  It is easy to make that first initial decision to workout, and then once you get in the flow of things, it is simple to keep on working out.  But if you take a break from your workout, I always find its the most hard to get back into the swing of things after taking a break.

This will be good for me.  I am going to try to eat well too.  No pop, no fast food, no white breads.
