Made it to Week 5...

Ah, Core Cardio and Balance week...also known as "Recovery Week." The word "recovery" however, I feel doesn't exist in Shaun T's vocabulary or at least he isn't aware of the definition. I remember enjoying this week...

I kept up with the warm up (barely) and had to fall out a few times during the core part of the exercise to catch a breather but I got through it. To think I need to do this five more times this week. Holy hell.

I guess this was about the time during my first run through where people (not just myself) began to pick up on the changes occurring. My confidence sky rocketed as did my belief that I could do way more than I used to be able to and that my fitness had exceeded an all time high. I feel it now but perhaps knowing that the bigger mountain to climb (the second half of Insanity) looms near and that is basically Shaun T slapping you down.

A friend in my unit, whom I got to do Insanity is in Week 6 and he is explaining and describing all the wonderful differences and breakthroughs that I was talking about in person, thinking to myself or perhaps even on this blog and its great to see someone else with that same confidence. We joked about some of our "favorite" workouts and what not. I've got two other friends in my unit that want to do Insanity, mayhaps I am a trendsetter. :)

As far as Advocare goes, loving the Spark and Slam combo. Cannot mention that enough. I tried to order an Herbal Cleanse but they are still out of stock (shows their popularity) and I still have a brand new Catalyst bottle starting down at me on the fridge. Really need to get into that.

Damn pills.
