    Skipped a day due to an injury, ended up with stitches in my eyelid.
    Glutes and quads were in bits all yesterday and today, did a bit of foam rolling to loosen them out.

    Day 2
    Plyometric Cardio Circuit

    Kept up until the last 2 sets, it got quite difficult then. Couldn't keep up with the ski abs and up-down abs, arms were giving out. Gave it all though which is the main thing. Feeling good after it.

    Day 3
    Cardio Power and Resistance

    Tough. The v push ups and power jumps were especially difficult. Glad I did it. Keep pushing on.

    Day 4
    Cardio Recovery

    Intense enough on the leg muscles, but it was nice not to be sweating and shaking all over after it.

    This is B_Rabbit's Training Log, not a general discussion thread on Insanity.

    There are a few of those in the main Health and Fitness forum, like this one

    The last few sets are killer on the arms

    Day 8
    Cardio Power and Resistance

    Again it's the level 2 drills at the end that are the worst, hard to push through.

    Day 9
    Pure Cardio

    Day 10
    Plyometric Cardio Circuit

    Day 11
    Cardio Recovery

    Day 12
    Cardio Power and Resistance


    I really need to sort my diet out. Too much impulse buying in shops. Have started going gym for weights and am finding it difficult for the last few sets if I do Insanity after the gym, so I'll have to do Insanity first from now on.

    Probably not the right thread for this but do you know anyone interested in buying an Insanity 13 disc DVD fitness set. I've got badly injured on the pitch so it'll never be used again. If this isn't the place for this can I be pointed in the right direction

    Thanks
