INSANITY – Week 7 Review
Week 7 Day 1 – Max Cardio Conditioning
So on Sunday I did max cardio conditioning. Again this was a little less intense workout for me. I managed to finish it with some additional breaks in between.
Week 7 Day 2 – Hybrid – P90X Chest Shoulders Triceps
Okay, instead of doing Insanity max interval circuit last night, I did p90x chest shoulders triceps. I want to start incorporating more p90x weight lifting into the last 2 and a half weeks left on Insanity. The reaon is my body fat is down to 8% and I figure I need to maintain some muscles. I’m currently on a 1700 fat shredder diet and so far I average about 1 lbs of weight loss every week. At this rate I feel like my muscles have shrunk (along with losing fat) since I started Insanity. I want to make sure that my hard earned muscles are at least maintained by the end of this program. Therefore, I chose to do a hybrid between Insanity and P90X. I’ll let you all know how it goes.
Week 7 Day 3 – Max Interval Circuit
Last night I did Max Interval Circuit. While it was almost an hour long, I’m starting to like it. There’s more upper body and core in this video than that of max interval plyo – which I don’t hate but I prefer the more balanced moves in max circuit. I burned a whopping 800+ calories in that workout! Maybe because I enjoyed doing it and therefore pushed harder 🙂 Tonight, I’ll go back to my hybrid — p90x shoulders and arms plus ab ripper x.
Week 7 Day 4 –Â Hybrid – P90X Shoulders & Arms & ARX
ARX still kicked my butt. IMO it’s more effective than the Insanity cardio abs. What do you guys think?
Week 7 Day 5 –Â Rest
I took my rest day yesterday which is a few days earlier than what I had plan. There’s no excuse but it was due to a last-minute schedule conflict. I plan on pushing hard and finish week 7 here in a couple of days.
Week 7 Day 6 –Â Max Cardio Conditioning & Cardio Abs
I did max cardio conditioning and cardio abs last night. Again, max conditioning is one of my favs because it’s not too long and intense lol! Before I knew it the video was almost over. I guess I could push harder next time! I did p90x ARX the other day and gave it a rave review so I decided to give cardio abs another go. Oh well, ARX is still more effective IMO. 🙂
Week 7 Day 7 – Hybrid – P90X Shoulders & Arms
Since I took the rest day earlier than planned other day, I went on and did the 6th workout of the week to wrap up week 7. I have two 2 more weeks left on Insanity/P90x hybrid!
I did shoulders and arms today per my plan to alternate Insanity and P90x. This seems to be working out great so far. I can see that my upper body especially the arms are getting really ripped now. The abs are getting more obvious day by day. While the progress is slow (since we can’t spot reduce fat), it’s progress nonetheless.
Keep digging deep everyone!
Cheers,
Coach Al
