Well, today was day 4 of the Beachbody program Insanity. The workout for today was Cardio Recovery. Now, don’t let that name fool you! It’s been so long since I have done it and I had forgotten that it still actually makes you sweat. I needed a good stretch today and it definitely delivered that. My inner thighs, calves, and shoulders are sore. I love that feeling because I know that this program is working! I hope it gets me over the plateau that I have hit. I think once I finally start this new job in about two weeks I may invest in Shakeology again. It definitely made my nails and hair healthier. It was quite tasty too! We will see what happens int he future. 🙂 Looking forward to tomorrow’s workout!

Insanity Day 3
Well, today I woke up feeling ever-so-sluggish, but after I ate a little bit of breakfast I got enough energy to start day 3 of Insanity. It was definitely a bit harder than the workout yesterday. I sweat a lot and did take a few breaks here and there (again, with a pushup move!), but that’s okay! I also felt like throwing up during the beginning. I guess I was really pushing myself. I also used my X-box One’s fitness app to do today’s workout. Luckily, the app has a few of Insanity’s workouts on there. Today I did Power Cardio and Resistance. I like using the fitness app on the X-box One because challenges pop up from time to time and you try and beat other women’s scores that are in your age range. I did beat a few of the challenges, but some I did not. I am sure with time and completing more and more of these workouts I will be able to beat all of the challenges one day! Super stoked to do that.

Insanity Day 2
Insanity Day 1
Okay. New day. Picking up where I left off in my fitness journey. Not necessarily starting over, but getting over a bump in the road. I am really determined to finish the Insanity program this time. The first time I tried I ended up stopping because of some mysterious pain in my lower abdomen. Anyway, took measurements and my weight today. Need to do before pictures. I did the Fit Test of Insanity.
Here are my stats for day one’s Fit Test:
Switch Kicks – 80
Power Jacks – 43
Power Knees – 85
Power Jumps – 25
Globe Jumps – 8
Suicide Jumps – 10
Pushup Jacks – 14
Low Plank Obliques – 50
Can’t wait to see how much more I can do later. I am sticking to this!

Somewhat a new beginning…
I started this blog to help me on my journey to becoming a great Beach Body Coach. What exactly is a Beach Body Coach you ask? Well, I’m someone that helps motivate you and push you through your exercise and diet regimen. I help keep you on track, and help you through all the ups and downs on your lifestyle change! I also sell Beach Body products, which include great workout programs, as well as supplements and Shakeology.
I’m on a weight loss journey as well. I started at the beginning of the year of 2012. My weight then was 220 pounds.
I was always tired, unhappy, and depressed. I couldn’t believe I let myself get to where I was. I then began cutting and counting calories, which was hard at first. I always found myself hungry. It got easier as time went on. I also began to do Zumba, Sweat (hip-hop Zumba), pole fitness, jogging, and some weight lifting. I then got stuck at 175 pounds from what it seemed like forever. I didn’t exactly give up. I kept up with my healthier diet, but my exercise routines slowly became non-existent. I just felt like nothing was working for me and became very frustrated.
That was until my best-friend, Meghan, whom I’ve been friends with since second grade said that she was doing the INSANITY program.
After talking to her a bit about it, I then too, ordered INSANITY and couldn’t wait to start. After starting INSANITY, the first week I was definitely sore and felt like I was waddling around everywhere. Then, as time went on, the soreness became less and less and I never realized how much potential I had. After talking with Meghan again, and our coach through Beach Body (Hera), I decided to also purchase their healthy shakes as a one meal replacement per day.
I was a little leery at first about Shakeology, but it actually makes you feel better! I have more energy now than I ever had. It’s also helping with the weight loss and supports my lean muscle mass that I am surely creating. Shakeology has SO many other benefits.
It helps curve your cravings of sugar and junk food. Other benefits include: improves your digestion and regularity, supports your immune system, and supports cardiovascular health. It also tastes great as well! There are so many recipes you can find on the website.
Now, I’m into month 2 of the INSANITY program and I have lost 7.5 pounds so far, as well as inches all over my body, and have went from 34% body muscle to 37%.
If any of you are interested in a new healthier and energized you, please feel free to contact me at beastmoderawr@aol.com. Beach Body has a wide variety of exercise programs that can help anyone on their journey to a healthier lifestyle. 🙂 I will continue to post my progress on here. 🙂
