Hey everyone!! Here is a workout that I put together using 10 of my favorite INSANITY moves! I put this workout together for anyone to try out as a challenge or if you are short on time and still need to get your sweat on! This can take anywhere from 25-40 minutes depending on your fitness level. Do this once a week to see how your strength and endurance increases! Enjoy!

Insanity Hell:-)

—10 Moves. 3 Cycles. 600 Reps Total!!!

All 10 moves will be performed one after the other followed by a 2 minute break at the end of each cycle. Enjoy!!

–1st Cycle= 30 Reps Each-Focus on Form!

-2 minute break

–2nd Cycle= 20 Reps Each-Speed it Up!

-2 minute break

–3rd Cycle= 10 Reps Each-DIG DEEP!!!


-Since Plank Punches, High Knees, and Mountain Climbers require alternating sides, 2 kicks/punches=1 rep, so you will be doing 60 reps total for the 1st cycle, 40 for the 2nd, and 20 for the 3rd.

**Be sure to do a 5-10 minute warm up**

1. Mountain Climbers

2. Pushup Drills(5 Pushups, 8 Floor Sprints, Jump up, Repeat) With the pushup drills, you are counting the pushups. 6 sets will make 30 reps for cycle 1, 4 sets for cycle 2, then 2 sets for cycle 3.

Marathon Training-Day 40!!!

I know I know!!! I’ve been slacking on the blog! Definitely going to do my best to post DAILY updates on here:)

Well last you heard was the pains I was having on day 12. Those first 3 weeks was definitely trial and error for me. The aches and pains are virtually gone now thank god! I have found my stride, my pace, and everything that works for me.

I did have my very first 15k race(9.3 Miles) on February 7th. It was probably the hardest thing I have ever done! I havent done much hill training and of course when I showed up to this race, the ENTIRE thing was hills! Suddenly my hour and a half goal turned into a 2 hour goal. I kept a slower pace and just kept telling myself to put one foot infront of the other.

Luckily after 3 miles of brutal hills, there was a 2-3 mile stretch of flat road. This is when I kicked it up a notch and held a 9 minute pace. I felt amazing at this point…Then the hills kicked back in….

The last 3 miles was definitely the hardest run of my life. I was physically drained and exhausted. And of course my GU pack fell out of my pocket around mile 2 but I didnt want to stop to get it haha. The last mile I could see my girlfriend and family at the finish and thats when I kicked up the pace again and went at a full sprint. I would guess around a 7 min pace. I managed to finished the race in 1 hour 43 minutes which I was more than happy with:)

I took the next day off of course. I wasn’t too sore which surprised me. Then after that rest day I went on an 8 miler with a friend of mine. I made a video on this you can view here

So here I am day 40. Today I am doing my normal warm up with pushups and pullups. I’m having some issues with my right achilles tendon. Not so much pain, just extremely tight so I’ll get that loosened up today. Thank you for all the support and motivation you give me! I’ll catch ya tomorrow!

Marathon Training-Day 12-Ouch…

Well today sucked…This is my first solid week of doing both insanity AND running so I’ve been extremely sore, especially yesterday. I made the BIG mistake of not stretching nearly enough and paid for it today. I went out to do my 4 miler, usually an easy run for me. I made it 2 miles. My quads had such an intense ache!!! Played it smart and cut the run in half. Tomorrow is a rest day and sunday is a scheduled 7 mile run. I am contemplating taking sunday off as well and doing the run on monday. We will see how I feel tomorrow. In the mean time, I am using a foam roller and stretching A LOT to get this junk loosened up. Crossing my fingers!

Wow. So today was a 4 mile run. First time that I have run without having a rest day first. I did Insanity-Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs yesterday. Hamstrings are SOOORRRRE today. I thought my quads weren’t too bad till I hit the end of mile 1. The whole run was very difficult today because my quads were very achy from yesterdays workout ONTOP of the weather which was very cold, raining, and wind. First time running in the wind and it was definitely against me today!

I still managed to keep an 11 min pace which is a bit slower than my average but I did the best I could for what I had to work with! Tomorrow is another day of insanity but I have the feeling that I will be VERRRRY sore haha. Probably going to do upper body weight lifting so we will see! Thanks for reading and I’ll catch ya tomorrow!
