Second day of my insane workout today I did a full body circuit that has nearly killed me!
I am feeling a ton better already but still not sorted for my diet. At the moment I am having 2 scrambled eggs for breakfast and the a meat samwhich for first school break then a muesli bar and a piece of fruit for lunch. When I get home I don't really eat I might grab a snack of whatever is lying around then I do my workout and just chill out then eat dinner and go for a job when I get home from my jog which is 2.2km long I have my protein shake and go to bed!
Well the only thing I might change, and tbh I'm not an expert by a long shot, but I would cut back on the protein. A common misconception is that more protein=more muscle. While to an extent this is true as you do need to increase protein intake the more active you are, it is surprisingly little more than normal. Additionally, excess protein becomes fat. So, to really lose weight at a good pace, try lightening up on the protein and eating more carbohydrates, especially whole wheats. If you'd like some numbers I can supply a rough estimate.
Oh okay. I just looked it up and it says it comes with a nutrition plan? If so just use that because I assume that would be best with that program. Otherwise I would probably take out the bacon in the morning and add toast or something like that (make sure to use as little toppings, like jelly, as possible). And I wouldn't have much meat for lunch. Instead have something like a sandwich and a banana or some other fruit. Just don't put too much meat on the sandwich. As for dinner, make sure you have lean meats like turkey or fish (avoid red meat like beef as much as possible) and vegetables. Personally only from eating like that an running a little on a treadmill I lost 15 pounds and went down 8% body fat
I feel that I am doing good but I need to stick on top of my protein shakes. I have lost 5 Lbs in the last 11 days which I am proud but I could of lost alot more if I was eating better. I have missed one workout but I caught up on it. Doing another workout tonight but wont be tomorrow night as I have athletics day the day after tomorrow and dont wont risk injuring myself working out.
I plan on printing out the Insanity nutrition soon but havnt quite got round to it.
First insane abs day felling sore but really need to get my damn food plan down I am just eating whatever is around at the moment though its all realtively healthy if someone has a food plan I can use please post here!
I only did a little but over half of it as I started feeling light headed and thought I was going to faint so I stopped, I think it is because I didn't eat enough today (only ate like 800 cals).
Tonight was the core workout and afterwards decided to take a photo to see my progress after 2 weeks and am very happy at how it turned out even though the 2nd photo is from straight after the workout when the first is at a random time! Here are the photos:
Neither of them are flexing!
I might upload photos of back, legs and arms later on.
Tonight was another round of abs but I have the feeling if I did a calisthenics type pull up bar ab workout it would work much better as my abs arn't hurting or feeling any better! What are you guys thinks?
