Update

It has been a while since I updated, so I thought now is a good time for a new post. My last post was right as I was starting month 2 of my first round of Insanity. Right after that is when the semester was winding down in school and things got pretty hectic for me.

As some know I am going back to school to take math and science classes so I can practice patent law. I already have the law degree so I am essentially doing it in reverse. For those who don't know patent law is a fairly specialized form of law that you need a science or technical background in order to practice it. I initially got a history degree for my BA, and did everything I could to avoid math. Little did I know that is the best background to have when going to law school. The upside is that after law school even the undergrad classes I considered hard are incredibly easy.

On the workout front, during the spring semester I took a jogging class, which was the bulk of my workouts for those three months. After school ended I started a second round of Insanity which I just finished. Here are my initial and final fit test numbers for this round of Insanity:


Switch Kicks - 92 118 (+26)
Power Jacks - 54 70 (+16)
Power Knees - 103 125 (+22)
Power Jumps - 45 70 (+25)
Globe Jumps - 7 11 (+4)
Suicide Jumps- 10 13 (+3)
Push Up Jacks- 16 30 (+14)
Low Plank Obl- 40 53 (+13)

I am now going to do a round of P90x, with at least for a time, a lot of added cardio. I am taking most of the month of July off from work so I am going to take the first month and do a hybrid doubles program of P90x. Basically, I will follow the P90x classic program, but add a second cardio workout later in the day, which will be piecemeal from Insanity, Chalean Extreme and the Cardio-x routine. I do not want to lose all the cardio conditioning gained from Insanity, and this plan should keep things from getting too repetitive.

My last month of P90x will overlap with my first month of the fall semester in school. I am going to finish it out, even though I will be really pressed for time going to school part time and working full time. At that point I will not be doing doubles any longer. Once I finish that out I will probably use the workout facilities at school, but I will figure all that out when the time comes.
