Day Three...

Cardio Power and Resistance is poorly named.  It should be called, "Push ups, Push ups, oh wait, more Push ups!"

If you've got 50 or more pounds of extra weight around your middle, this may not be the DVD for you.  I can't even do ONE push up.  At least not one where my knees leave the ground.  So, as always, I struggled through and made up my own routine (knees or tushie touching at all times).

I managed to get though the first interval, but when my heart felt like it was about to burst through my chest I had to take a 2 minute break.  The second set of training was meant to work your arms.  At least that's what I'm assuming since it was all push-up variations.  One was even a plank ball push up where your entire body weight was on the tips of your toes and hands.  Didn't even bother with THAT one.

Well, I got out there and sweat for another 40 minutes (38 if you count the time it took to get my heart back into my chest).  Now it's just pushing through the next 60 days.

I won't do this again.  It's simply not meant for FAT people to get fit.  Insanity is meant for FIT people to get fitter.
