Insanity: The Asylum Volume 2- Day 1/30, X Trainer

Today began my day of Insanity: The Asylum Volume 2! I've been anticipating this program ever since it was announced that they were filming it. I enjoyed Shaun  T and doing Insanity and Insanity: The Asylum so much already and I couldn't wait to get started.

I didn't eat the cleanest today since I took out my girlfriend all day today but clean eating will resume again tomorrow. Started the "X Trainer" routine when I got home earlier. This workout went great! I drank my Energy and Endurance pre-workout formula using a different method a Beachbody coach friend taught me and it got me going in 10 minutes. I didn't have much trouble doing the complicated ladder moves since I practiced the Agility Tutorial a couple of times last week. I did it slower making sure I had right form and concentrating on getting the sequences right. It was very fast paced and hard as heck. Shaun T has really gone off the deep end on this! The toughest part of the routine was the Push-Up Matrix in which I had to do a total of 60 push-ups in three positions while holding planks for 10 seconds in between. At the end of this whole routine, I just crawled to drink my water and wondered what I got myself into! I drank my Results and Recovery formula so I can properly restore the lost glycogen in my muscles to get me ready for tomorrow's workout- Upper Elite, which is an upper body workout involving weight training. It's something that I have missed out while doing the Insanity series.

I apologize for not giving a complete rundown since I am way too tired to remember but I'll give more details next go around at this complete with videos and action shots.

I will begin posting up my meals tomorrow but here are my stats and some snippets from today's workout.
