today was my 2nd day of insanity. I didnt know what to expect but i went in anyways. I pushed myself until i couldnt anymore. So i only did the first 30 min of the Plyometric Cardio which is 45 min long. The PC work out doesnt come back up till friday and i will strive to push on to 45 adding atleast 5 more min to the 30. Good burn today. I feel like i just did a 60 min workout.

Today was good. I completed the entire 32 min of Cardio Recovery. It was tough but next time i will push even harder to hold all poses. I did zumba live for 30 min to have some medium cardio today. Also noticed my heart rate is lowering for the intensity that i am at (ie. 160/90%) . Great work out overall!
