Insanity Day 1

Today began my sixty day trip into hell and back.

The first circle I entered was the Fit Test. Or, as I like to call it, Limbo. It seems that my first trip has me residing in where all the unbaptized go. I really started as someone who did not accept Shaun T (the creator of Insanity) into my life. I stayed here for a while, swaying back and forth in deciding if I really wanted to go this route. I finally accepted it in my life and moved onto circle two.

Lust. Wanting the change in my life started to change me overnight. This is where my punishment began. And for a while, this is where I'm going to stay. I can say that I will get to the other circles of hell throughout this entire sixty day field trip. I can already tell that at some point, I will get to anger, heresy, and violence. I'm sure this will all be a part of the experience. Gluttony and greed start today cause I am already craving food and energy. I want them. Badly. And the last two? Fraud and treachery? Those will be replaced by some new type of hell. It'll take me sixty days to figure those out but I know that at one point, I will figure those out.

The Fit Test was actually an enjoyable workout. It was tough. It was quick. It kicked my butt. It made me do stuff that I've never done before and actually succeed at it. It had me do switch kicks, power jacks, power knees, power jumps, globe jumps, suicide jumps, push-up jacks and low plank obliques. Each for one minute. I wrote all my numbers down. I don't really feel that I did fantastic for my first time but it definitely was better than I thought. So here are my first Fit Test numbers.

Switch Kicks: 46 reps
Power Jacks: 28
Power Knees: 58
Power Jumps: 17
Globe Jumps: 5
Suicide Jumps: 11
Push-up Jacks: 9
Low Plank Obliques: 18

So in 2 weeks, when I do the next Fit Test, I hope to see an increase in those numbers.

With day one complete, I can rest until day two. Until then, I'm hungry.
