DAY 5: PURE CARDIO

I didn't get in till quite late tonight, which meant i had to do my workout late, no way in hell was i skipping a day of this. It's just not worth it..i want to see results, which means i have to work for results.

Most of the Insanity workout's names kinda give you a little inkling of what to expect.

PURE - def: not mixed or adulterated with any other substance or material.

CARDIO - def: cardiovascular exercise.

We all know that cardio, whatever type of cardio it is that you do is going to make you sweat and burn a few hundred calories. So PURE CARDIO will make you sweat BUCKETS and burn at least a thousand calories, well maybe a little exaggerating there. 

Once again we begin with the mother crazy warm-up, yep..three times, jog to sprint, power jacks - insane power jacks, bum kicks to take-your-butt-off-with-a-kicks, 123's to 123-i'm-gunna-die's. You get the picture, so three sets of these getting faster and faster. Another stretching 5 minutes, with more 30 second water breaks WOOOO.What kind of scared me at then end of the stretches though was the fact that Shaun T began to say he was getting nervous...uh....what?! Shaun T is getting nervous for what's about to come..HELLLLL NO. At this point i prayed and hoped i'd make it through. And i did, and i'm not lying i feel good! Sore good but good!It's no joke when he said he was nervous, i can now see why. Consant sprints, football sprints, suicide jumps, mountain climbers, level 2 drills...LEVEL 2! Even though it's not quite cardio, Shaun doesn't leave out the power moves, he had us on the floor holding the plank down. I think it ended with about 22 minutes altogether of cardio, with a 7 minute warmup, and 4 minute stretching each side. 
I honestly think i can do this, having done the past 4 days, i did have my doubts after my sprint to the toilet midst fit test. But its getting easier, my body is recovering faster and i'm ready for the next 55 days!

DIG DEEPER!
