Day 6 IP

Today was “cardio only” day.  Should I be surprised that I am already seeing and feeling a difference in one week.  The jumping and pushing are requiring me to integrate my body in a new way.  Plus, all the actions require core engagement in motion.  In principle, we should be living this way, but doing a concentrated program like Insanity requires the core awareness.

Anyone who has worked out knows that it makes the body look more sleek and toned, because everything has to wake up and work.  When we don’t do anything engaging, everything can just hang and get more and more stretched.  The “different look” is the difference from walking in the gym door, working out, and seeing/feeling the difference at the end.   I can appreciate how if someone has not included fitness in their life, it could be discouraging in the beginning,  since everything has to wake up first before it can take on a toned looked.  The people with ripped abs have worked for it.
