Day 26 | Insanity Max 30 Challenge | Friday Fight Round 1

Day 26 is the last workout of Month 1 of Insanity Max 30. And I’m pumped up to have finished off month 1 with another amazing workout. It’s also the last time we take on the Friday fight round 1 workout as next week we begin the much-anticipated month 2 and the MAX workouts.

Day 26 Friday Fight Round 1

I did something I haven’t really done thus far in Insanity Max 30. I started todays workout without checking my previous Max Out time. I wanted to go all out as long as I possibly could without trying to reach a specific number to see how far I could get. The problem was about 10 minutes in I started to cramp up in my obliques making it harder to breathe. I pushed through the pain as long as I could but in the end Maxed Out at 17:15. And that took everything I had left in my tank.

I don’t think it’s always about beating your previous Max out time, I thinks it’s about YOU vs YOU in that moment. Trying to push yourself beyond what your mind and body are telling you. In any case I was short of my previous max out time by about 1:00 BUT my calorie burn, control, range of motion and effort were much higher. So I know I’m making great progress just 4 weeks in this challenge.

Day 25 Friday Fight Round 1 Nutrition:

Day 26 and the fifth day of the week and I kept my nutrition in check. Grilled up some lean pork chops for dinner and man those things are amazing. I probably could have over eating if I wasn’t paying attention. The rest of the day was same as usual. Tomorrow begins my weekend and that’s where the struggle begins. Just take it one day at a time and not getting caught up in it if I slip a little. Looking forward to Month 2 (sorta) of Insanity Max 30 Monday!
