Day 17 | Insanity Max 30 Challenge | Sweat Intervals

by

Insanity max sweat intervalsIt’s hump day here on day 17 of Insanity Max 30 and I’m have to admit I have really been struggling over the last few days. Insanity, Asylum and Insanity Max 30 are no walks in the part and pretty much every workout is relentless on the body. I’ve been beating my previous Max Out time each day but it’s really wearing me down this week. I don’t think I have this much soreness from any of my previous workout programs. Maybe that’s due to me pushing myself out of my comfort zone trying to beat my Max Out Time each and every day. In the battle against myself I’m winning but man am I sore!

Day 17 Sweat Intervals

After the day I had yesterday I was really anxious for today’s workout. Was I going to have enough steam to beat my Max out time, was I going to be able to finish the workout and was I even going to be able to move. I woke up this morning extremely sore and just felt worn down. By the time I pushed play I was going to give it my all to “hopefully” beat my previous Max Out time of 13:00 minutes. There is a lot more squatting in this workout than I remember and my legs were already toast. I was proud to able to push myself and up my max out time to 21:00, but just ran out of steam again with about 4 minutes left in the workout, so I skipped ahead to the stretch. I’m hoping this is just a phase I’m going through because I know I won’t be able to complete the entire Insanity Max 30 program with everyday being like the last few. Especially when the Month 2 workouts hit!

Day 17 Sweat Intervals Nutrition

I had the chance to try another new recipe for dinner on day 17. I tried the Italian Turkey Quinoa Meatball recipe from FitMenCook.com. They came out amazing and had enough left overs for the next few days. I posted a link to the recipe below. The rest of my day’s nutrition was “as usual”. Shakeology continues to be my post workout shake and this far in the program that has worked very well for me, but being as sore as I have been these last few days it might be time to start taking the Results and Recovery formula. Stay tuned.

Breakfast: 2 egg omelette with goat cheese, whole grain toast topped with strawberry preserves, and a banana.

Snack: Shakeology

Lunch: Tex Mex Spring rolls

Snack: Quest Bar and greek yogurt

Dinner:  Italian Turkey Quinoa Meatballs (Recipe) and green peas

Snack: Fruit bowl

Day 17 | P90X3 Challenge | X3 Yoga

by

X3 YogaThis X3 Yoga routine is starting to really grow on me. It’s hard to believe that I hated the Yoga routines in the original P90X, but even still I’m not sure I could enjoy 90 minutes of any type of workout. This is day 17 of my P90X3 Challenge journey and all is still going fairly smoothly. 3 weeks into the program and we are already looking forward to new workouts next week. That’s the beauty of a program with a lot of variety, it never gets old.

Day 17 X3 Yoga

X3 Yoga being only 30 minutes has got to be the perfect time frame for a yoga workout. I don’t burn a lot of calories, nor do I even hardly start to sweat. There is just something about yoga that makes me feel better. After a couple of intense workouts back to back Monday and Tuesday X3 Yoga was welcomed with open arms today. I still need a lot of work but  I can definitely see the progress I’m making each week even though it’s only week 3. Unlike the first 2 workouts of this week we actually will continue with X3 Yoga though out the 90 days. When I first looked at the P90X3 schedule I was not feeling the yoga thing for 90 days. There are only 2 weeks out of the full 13 weeks that yoga is not included. But after a few weeks I’m glad they left it in there. 

Day 17 X3 Yoga Nutrition

I wasn’t able to cook this evening and I ran out of my pre made meals at lunch on top of being short on time this evening. My softball team had our playoffs this evening (2 games) so there was no time to cook. I decided something quick was in order and went with a turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread. Man, do I love sandwiches. I try not to have more than 1 or 2 during the course of the week knowing that they are mostly processed. Tomorrow I’ll have to get back to cooking and upping that veggie intake.

Breakfast – Oatmeal with walnuts and whey protein 
Post Workout – Chocolate Shakeology, add whey protein and PB2
Lunch –  Chicken meatball, red potatoes
Snack – Pure Protein Bar, .5 oz almonds
Dinner – turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread, fruit cup
Snack – 8 oz 1% milk and 1 oz of almonds
