Day 1 & 2 - Fit Test

So, today was my first day of Insanity. I wanted to start on Monday, but I hurt my back shoveling out a parking space covered in two feet of snow. So, I waited a day to get started. It worked out well since we've been snowed in for days and I needed the extra activity.

I started the day off with the fitness test in the morning. It went well. I don't think I did everything right because some of my results were higher than the participants in the video.

I finished the day doing Plyometric Cardio Circuit. It started off rough because I wasn't wearing the right shoes and my feet were hurting. Halfway through I changed shoes and did my best to finish, but I can not do push ups. I also took a lot of breaks and felt a little light headed at the end. Thank God for running. That at least prepared me a little for the cardio, but I have a ways to go.

Here are my Day 1 Fit Test Results:
1. Switch Kicks - 117 (Pretty high. I obviously did this wrong.)
2. Power Jacks - 36
3. Power Knees - 71 (Also weirdly high)
4. Power Jumps - 30
5. Globe Jumps - 7 (Impossible to do after Kicks, Jacks and Knees)
6. Suicide Jumps - 13 (I was barely able to do the jump part)
7. Push-up Jacks - 8 (I can't do push-ups)
8. Low Plank Oblique - 42

I'm so sore right now. I don't know how I'm going to do this again. But I'm going to try and stick with it.
