Insanity the half way mark


So today I was day 36 of Insanity. I did my fit test along with the Max Cardio circuit workout. Man it kicked my butt. At the end I was totally gassed. I was very happy with the results of the fit test every number went up and I’m feeling better every day. Here are my results after 36 days. My day one fit test .
Switch Kicks: 50/120    +70
Power Jacks: 45/54    +9
Power Knees: 81/92    +11
Power Jumps: 30/47   +17
Globe Jumps: 8/10    +2
Suicide Jumps: 17/21   +4
Push-up Jacks: 26/33    +7
Low Plank Oblique: 30/50    +20
This is a huge improvement from where I started. Plus I was in good shape to begin with.

I had a few thoughts today about conditioning that I don’t know the answers to that I want to explore. Is there a maximum genetic expression for human conditioning? Or will your body keep adapting to the stresses of conditioning work? Will you ever reach a point of being over-conditioned? I don’t mean over trained. I know first hand that not only is it possible but it sucks too. Is there such a thing as optimum conditioning? I’ll be exploring this concept as I work through my training protocol from now through the next several months. Over the next year I’ll be doing P90X, P90X2, and a weight lifting protocol As well as a hybrid P90X/ Insanity program. Stick around its gunna be a good year.
