I was going to start tomorrow but after previewing the dvds I thought I would do the fit test today and see how I did.
Well I did a ton better than I thought I would!! On a sour note my arms are weak! I thought my stomach and legs held up very well though.
I was huffing and puffing through the test but I finished it and I am proud of myself. I previewed the first workout, the Plyo workout and WOW does it look INSANE!! It looks alot harder than the P90X Plyo just because of the intense cardio!
Cardio is what I need and want to improve upon but this cardio is out of this world. If I end up stopping too much or not being able to do the majority of the dvd, I might save insanity for a later date and continue to workout with my easier workouts until I get stronger and increase my cardio endurance. I don't want to be doing a workout that is way over my level, but I also do not want to do workouts that aren't challenging either.
Anyways without further ado here are the results of my Fit Test (we take the fit test every 2 weeks to monitor our progress)and we do each exercise for 1 minute and try to do as many of that exercise as we can:
Switch Kicks: 89
Power Jacks: 33
Power Knees: 76
Power Jumps: 25
Globe Jumps: 5 (4 jumps = 1 rep)
Suicide Jumps: 11
Push Up Jacks: 4 (my arms are so weak right now)
Low Plank Oblique: 30
My Goals are to increase my strength, and to have a lot better form when performing the exercises. The easiest exercises for me were the plank obliques and the power knees. I am sooo surprised how my stomach is performing after having a baby. I thought my abs would be the weakest part of my body, guess I was wrong. :)
