Days 58 and 59 with Shaun T’s Insanity are Max Cardio Conditioning with Cardio Abs and Max Interval Circuit.  I can finally say that Max Interval Circuit is getting a little more bearable.  I can get through it without complaining about it.  If you love cardio workouts then Insanity is for you.  These workouts really get your heart pumping and legs burning.

I only have 4 more workouts left and then I will be able to say that I got insane with Shaun T and completed Insanity.  The fit test is on Sunday but I will probably do it on Saturday since it is Easter Sunday.  I can’t wait to see how many globe jumps I will be able to do.  Yay!  Fun!  I also can’t wait to take a break from these intensive workouts.  My shoulders feel like they need a break.  I’ll take 6-7 day off and then I’ll be ready to hit the weights again.  I think I’m starting to miss the pull ups I was doing with P90X.  never thought I would say that since at the time I was doing them I hated those darn pull ups.  Especially the corn cob pull ups.  Well, in any event, Insanity will be in the books and I will move on to something else.  I will be doing some sort of hybrid of P90X and Insanity.  Personally I like more exercise with weights and resistance as opposed to extreme cardio but some of the Insanity workouts will fit in nicely with P90X.

P90X Exercise Program

Why is P90X so popular? I have been asked this question several times so I decided to write a post about it.  First of all if you ask this question to 10 different people then you will get 10 different answers.  Now if you ask 10 people who have done P90X then I am sure you will get some similar answers ranging from “P90X has put me in the best shape of my life” to “It’s kind of hard but I like it”. I really have not seen to many negative reviews of P90X unless someone was using a negative review for personal gain.

Here is my answer of why P90X is so popular.  It’s quite simple actually.  RESULTS! If you do the workouts and follow the P90X nutrition plan you will get results.  There a lot of workouts out there but most of them are missing a very important part, the nutrition plan.  People can follow a workout quite easily but when it comes to nutrition then it’s a different story.  P90X lays it all out for you.  The P90X nutrition plan tells you what to eat and the P90X workout guide tells you what workouts to do.  For me P90X was the first workout video I have ever done and I am totally hooked. One of the other things that I like about P90X was the fact that you put it in and get it done.  I never realized that I took way too much time between sets until I did P90X.  Push play and get it done.  Small breaks in between and that’s it.

Modified moves.  If you can’t keep up at first you can modify the exercises and modify the moves.  You only do what you can and then watch how much you will improve over 90 days.  That’s what it is all about, making improvements.  p90X if for just about everyone.  Men, women, athletes, runners, tri-athletes and so many more.  Just make sure  you get the green light from your doctor.

P90X is really become a workout phenomenon.  People are tattooing P90X on their body, there are over 89,oo0 facebook fans, there are over 10,000 youtube testimonials and over 10,000 twitter followers. I really feel that P90X is still in it’s infancy.  The word about the results you get is now traveling virally and there is no slow down in sight.  So if you don’t have P90X yet it’s time pick up this awesome 90 day workout today.

Day 57 with Shaun T’s Insanity is Max Interval Plyo and let me tell you, I am extremely happy that I only have to do this workout one more time.  This workout is as tough as they get. It did seem a little more bearable today but it is still really tough, especially when you are pushing yourself really hard.  Looks like I have 6 more workouts with Shaun T and then I will be able to say that I am truly “insane”. (kidding)  These workout were great and I feel really good but I am looking forward to hitting the weights again.  I am sure I have lost some pull up strength and maybe some back muscle strength but it shouldn’t take much to get back to where I was when I finished my first round of P90X.  I will be mixing these two workouts together in the future so stay tuned to see how it goes.  I already know it is going to be fun.  Variety always makes your workouts more fun and of course great results help to.

Shaun T Insanity days 52, 53 and 54.  I have been combining multiple days lately since I feel like I am repeating myself and I don’t want to bore my reader.  Day 52 was Max Cardio Conditioning and Cardio Abs, Day 53 is Max Recovery, and Day54 was Max Interval Circuit for the second time this week. Max Cardio Conditioning is still tough, it still kicks my butt and then to add Cardio Abs at the end of it was the icing on the cake to my butt kicking. Max recovery was much needed this week.  I am not sure what I did to my back but I was in some pretty bad pain on that day.  I did Max Recovery later in the day and I think it helped. Max Recovery is pretty much a lot of stretching and poses so I figured I could work my way through it. Day 54, which is today, was Max Interval circuit again.  My back still doesn’t feel the greatest but I made it through this tough workout. I didn’t want to do it but I only have 1 week left and I don’t want to screw up my schedule. Tomorrow is Core Cardio and Balance and I should be able to handle that workout even if my back is still a little sore.  Ahhhh, 8 more workouts to go.

So what do Alessandra Ambrosio, Raica Oliveira, Ana Beatriz Barros, Fernanda Motta and Gisele Bundchen all have in common?  Well besides looking “divine from behind”, all of these models have had sessions with the Brazil Butt master Leandro Carvalho.  No, Leandro is not a plastic surgeon, he is a personal trainer and one of his specialties is giving you perfect ass-ets. If all of these models seek out Leandro Carvalho to sculpt their butts then maybe we can to,  if you don’t mind traveling to New York and paying some hefty personal trainer fees. Wait a second, Leandro Carvalho has come out with a workout you can do at home called the Brazil Butt Lift. This is great news.  You won’t have to book that flight to New York just yet.  You can tone and tighten your best asset in the comfort and privacy of your own home.  Now that’s a deal.  Yes, you can get the same trainer Alessandra Ambrosio uses to keep her butt looking good at a fraction of the cost.  Bikini season is just around the corner. Can you pass the pencil test?  In case you are wondering what the pencil test is I will go over it here for you now.  What you do is take a pencil and place it in the crease where your butt meets the back of your thigh.  If the pencil stays in place then you are lacking some lift and the Brazil Butt Lift is just what you are looking for.  The goal is to lose some fat and firm your butt so the pencil falls to the floor.

Leandro Carvalho is originally from Brazil and has earned his degree in physical education and is certified by all of the major fitness training entities.  Prior to this he has danced with companies like Mercer Cunningham.  If you are looking to find Leandro, you can usually find him at the Equinox Fitness Club in New York City where he teaches his Brazil Butt Lift class.  New York magazine awarded this butt tightening class the “Best Bikini Prep Class” in New York in 2004.

It all started when Victoria Secret model Alessandra Ambrosio approached Leandro back in 2001 and wanted a program to specifically target and tone her butt without bulking up her legs.  Alessandra was worried about about doing squats and other leg exercises since she want to stay lean in the legs.  As a result, the Brazil Butt Lift was born and along with it came a lot more models to train who wanted that awesome looking butt. To get started on your butt transformation just go to Brazil Butt Lift and then go to Macy’s and get your new bikini.

So you want to try Shakeology but you think it might be a bit expensive?  It’s funny since those who drink it think the price is too low.  Let’s think about this for a second.  What do you spend $4 bucks on a day.  Your lunch, an extra large latte, a martini(even during happy hour), a Big Mac meal, a pack of cigarettes, a car wash, a 12inch sub from Subway, a “hot and ready” from Little Caesars, a small bucket of golf balls, some new mascara, a number 6 at Wendy’s and the list could go on an on and on and on.  Now you have the option to put something into your body that is packed with nutrition and all you have to do is just replace one of those other things with Shakeology. Heck, you might even save money in the process.

If you tried to put all 70 of Shakeology’s ingredients together yourself you would spend a small fortune every month.  I have to say thanks to fellow Beachbody coach Blake Warrington who actually did a little experiment and tried to do just that.  He wanted to see how much it would cost if he went to the health food store and tried to put together Shakeology ingredient by ingredient. Below is what he discovered.

Do you really want to spend $483 bucks on this stuff?  Yeah, I know, me either. That’s why Shakeology is the best solution and will be your healthiest meal of the day.
