Keeping an Insanity Workout Diary

Written by: Elizabeth Renter

Pad of Paper & PenDay One: I feel exhausted. I thought I might be experiencing the first case of death by sweat. I can’t wait for tomorrow!!

 

Keeping an Insanity Workout diary may require you to come up with new ways to say “I can’t believe I did that!” or “I’ve never worked so hard in my life!” But, keeping an Insanity Workout diary might also be a great way to track your progress and keep your motivation on high. If you’re the type of person who likes to keep lists and notes, a diary can be a great way to watch how far you have come in your Insanity Workout journey. It doesn’t have to be a great work of literature—shoot you don’t even have to be a good speller.

 

Your Insanity Workout diary can be done in a Word document, a blog, or a spiral notebook. Whatever you are comfortable using. Keep in mind: a regularly updated blog will get feedback which can be an immediate motivator. However you choose to keep your Insanity Workout diary, an important thing to remember is to update it after every workout, even if it is just a few sentences.

 

Update your Insanity Workout diary with things like the workout you did, what time of day it was, how much of an effort you put forth and how the workout felt. Additional things like what you ate that day and how much sleep you got the night before will help you pinpoint how your lifestyle is affecting your workouts overall. Lastly, track your body measurements and/or weight.

 

Nothing is quite as satisfying as looking back on your Insanity Workout diary after you have completed 30 or 60 days of the program. You will be amazed at how far you have come and how your attitude is likely to change–not to mention how your physique has changed.

 

The Benefits of Home Fitness Advice

Written by: Elizabeth Renter

j0402324Working out at home is convenient. You can wear what you want, workout whenever you have the time, and you don’t have to worry about what other people think of your sweating and struggling body. However, working out at home also presents its own unique issues. Having somewhere to go for home fitness advice is a great tool to have. Here at the Extreme Body Workout blog we commit to bringing you daily workout and nutrition tips to help you stay on track.

 

We add to this blog a minimum of 7 times a week. That’s a post every single day. Even weekends. We know your fitness goals don’t stop on the weekends and we do our best to provide consistency that you can count on.

 

One of the problems of taking your fitness home with you is the lack of accountability. When you are into home fitness, no one knows if you skip a workout. Home fitness routines require a high level of discipline because, let’s face it, your couch is right there! It would be very easy to not take a home fitness routine seriously.

 

But, when you don’t live up to your goals, even if no one knows, you know, and that knowledge can make it harder to pick back up and make fitness commitments in the future.

 

Having several sources of support for your home fitness workouts is crucial. Tell people about your goals! Join a message board or online community to talk with people like you. Subscribing to blogs you like is another great way to ensure you are getting daily motivation.

 

While the majority of our blog posts are related to the programs we sell here, not all of them are. General fitness is as important to us as it is to you. We blog about what we sell because we stand behind these high quality products. However, we also recognize that our customers have questions about things not related to our products.

 

Here at the Extreme Body Workout blog, we want to address all of your fitness concerns and help you reach your goals. Come here for some of the best fitness advice and motivational posts no matter what program you are working with.
