In this, the 15th installment of FitVlog, you'll see a little sample of one of the most challenging Beachbody workouts I've done so far. You might not be able to tell from my pitiful attempt at doing this program, but it is TOUGH!
So what is Insanity?
Let me tell you a little about it. First, it's a 60 day program of intense cardio. The workouts are about 40-60 minutes long, depending on where you are on the schedule. Did I mention the cardio is intense? The exercises are designed to work your whole body. Trust me, you'll feel it! The warm-up alone is just as difficult as the entire workout. It's about 10 minutes long. I've yet to make it all the way through the warm-up without stopping. (O.o)
Stay tuned to see more videos of me attempting to complete each workout. It's only going to take me a couple of months. We'll see how it goes!

Okay, as for the rest of what I'm doing to get myself back into some kind of shape...
The diet. It needs a little tweak.
Yes, I'm a vegetarian. But, that doesn't mean I'm fit and healthy. You can be a vegetarian and still nosh on cookies, crackers and candy. And if you do that, like I have been, you're probably not going to be at your healthiest.
Healthy alternatives?
My plan is to stock up on the fruit and veggies. I don't plan on being a raw vegan, however. The reason is, it's just too expensive! And good fruit is hard to come by. Instead, I'll incorporate some cooked rice, pasta and potatoes. Also, I'll avoid having fats, dairy and too much salt. All of these goodies will be enough to keep me full and energized. Yep, no shortage of carbs for me. I look forward to feeling even better than ever!
I hope my experience inspires and motivates you to take charge of your own health. Eat better and move!
Take care out there! (^.^)v
