Mind Over Matter

Day 3 of Insanity and I was really worried that I may have to skip tonight's workout due to the extreme tightness of my calves, as well as an essential all-over soreness throughout my body. But... I managed to make it through another video and boy am I glad I did! I always feel so good after a workout, and tonight was no exception. My calves are still a bit tight and sore, and my arms feel like jello since there were plenty of push-ups throughout this workout. I'm now researching protein shakes, and many of the folks who have completed Insanity use these on top of completing the program. My fear is spending lots of money on something that really doesn't make much of a difference anyway. Besides, I plan on grocery shopping tomorrow to re-stock my kitchen with plenty of good, healthy foods that I've been trying to incorporate into my life for the past few months anyway. As for my experience so far with this workout program, I'm feeling good about it. I don't get bored, as it is all circuit training, and I absolutely love that they put the time up on the videos to let you know how much longer you have left in the set, as well as the time remaining to complete the entire workout itself. For someone who is impatient, this is good stuff. I am still a bit concerned, however, that I will become bored eventually, or "life" will happen and I will begin to fall back and give up all together. This is pretty common with other workouts that I've tried in the past. But... since I'm already feeling results (better mood, more energy, etc) I'm hoping this time will be different, and that soon I will actually SEE some results as well.
