Well that was fun.

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

I know this was from a couple weeks ago, but i bought a set of PowerBlock 5.0 adjustable weights. They are not as bulky as the bowflex weights, and the only thing made of plastic is the handle block and it's a solid 5 pound hunk of plastic. Some people have an issue with the pins that are used to hold the weights in place, but I never had an issue with it slipping.

Max Interval Circuit = 1 hour @ 81% of Max HR = 800 calories burned.

81% of MHR for an hour?! Holy crap! :ze

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

WOW good job brother thats how you bring it!!! :tu

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Ahhhhhhhhh! Feels amazing doesn't it? From phase 1... "I can't...believe....it's even possible"

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Off day for me, start my final recovery week of the hybrid, and then fit test + measurements next Sunday.

And figuring out what to tackle next! Gotta take a break from Insanity cardio routines--been hitting it straight since January. Maybe just go for some P45x (half workouts ;) ) + moderate cardio over the next month before the beach.

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Braught it to Plyo X this morning I am loving this Hybrid so far cant wait to get to the Insanity Max workouts:tu

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

I have Max Interval Plyo in just a few minutes. Oh yeahhhh!

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Just finnished Shoulders/Arms and Cardio Abs

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Max Cardio Circuit.

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Its Pure Cardio day for me.

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Just kick started my day with Plyo Cardio Circuit!!!

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Off the wagon for a bout a week on vacation doing mostly runs everyday. I think I am going to switch gears until labor day and do 4 days weight training/light cardio and 2 days hard cardio (Max Interval or a 6 mile run). One day rest. I want to get a little more chest development.

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Moved on to a different routine, started on Tuesday. For Father's Day, my daughter bought me an autographed copy of Tony Horton's new book. He's developed work out regimens depending on your ability: Beginner, Striver, Warrior. Of course, I opted for Warrior :ze :tu

The sequence is:
Cardio Day (kind of a mixture of Plyo + Kenpo + Insanity)
Resistance Day (fast paced, minimal rest full-body circuits x2)
Off
Cardio Day
Resistance Day
Yoga

Even as a P90X and Insanity grad, those first two workouts kicked my butt.

This oughta be good!

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Just finished MAX Interval Circuit for the first time and WOW!!! I havent pushed myself that hard in years Shawn T realy brings out the best in you and pushes you harder than you thaught was possiable!!!

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Love that one. The second set is my favorite. Whadja think of the floor kicks?

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

I think you have a crush on Shawn T.
Lisa bagged the deal after a few weeks. It was destroying her old knees. She said if she could get ahold of Shawn T she'd tear his throat out, or something on those lines. lol
One good thing is that as soon as she bagged the insanity, she immediately started running again. Between the gym, running, and working out at home every day, I think she'll be just fine. She already is fine, ahh, you know what I mean. :D

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Keep it up bro! I'm down 8lbs this week myself.

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

Took a break today. Hit it hard Thursday-Tuesday. PLUS...I had to drive 400 miles for work. NOT feeling it.

Re: Losing weight Insanity style with Kirk
 

My break night was last night. HArd to get back on the horse tonight, but I did, and added .3 miles to my 30 minute bike time, putting me over 12 miles in 30 mins.
