Insanity Cardio Abs Workout

Watch Video Below

I recently decided to do a second round of the Insanity Challenge, something that I haven't done in a couple years. With Beachbody coming out with workouts that you can do in 25 to 30 minutes, I started to get used to the short workouts, and I wanted to challenge myself to see if I can still hang with Shaun T for more than 30 minutes. And I just have to say that he is royally kicking my ass LOL.

Don't get me wrong, I can go to the gym and workout for a couple hours, but to do Insanity for two hours, "forget about it" =). I am currently on week 4 of month 1, and staying strong. I definitely feel the burn, but I also am feeling like I haven't in awhile, I just missed doing Insanity.

I used Beachbody Energize Pre-Workout on the days I need that extra push

Here is a quick video of my Insanity Cardio Abs Workout which I did right after Pure Cardio, oh yeah, I was beat to a pulp lol. This was Day 1, Week 4 of my Insanity Challenge.

Savage Race Florida - Fall 2015

Just another day at the office #FitLife

All I can say is what an EPIC event that Savage Race put together this past weekend in Dade City, Florida. Savage Race is like OCR's (obstacle course racing) "Best Kept Secret". The event was on point from the staff, the obstacles, and the festival area. Staying innovative is something that I notice from this company. They may not be as big as Spartan Race and some of the other veteran companies out there, but I'm telling you, they have a lot of what most OCR companies don't have (from my experience), and that's "class". I would have to say that they fit the bill as being the "White Glove Service" of the obstacle course racing industry. But don't let that fool you, their obstacles are down right challenging.

My Mud Run Fun friends, they love to have a good time! 

I 've been attending, participating, and filming the Savage Race for about 3 years now, and they are definitely on my TOP 3 OCR list when it comes to "must do" events. If you haven't been to a Savage Race, I highly encourage it. Take a gander at my latest Savage Race video, and feel free to connect with me, I'd love to meet up with you at a race event. If you love health, fitness, OCR's and just being active, I'd love to add you to my #FitFam network. Enjoy the video =)

Island Hopping in Palawan - Philippines

Island Hopping - El Nido, Palawan

So I finally had the opportunity to upload my Island Hopping video from Palawan, Philippines. It was so much fun, I took one of my cousins from Manila with me (he's never been there) and we had a blast together!

Watch Island Hopping Video Below!

I was on the island of El Nido for about a week and also found a gym called the Peak Corner Gym (not sure if it's still there) because I am always looking for a place to workout and keep my fit on all over the world. The day pass was something like only $1.50 US =) The workout that I did in this particular video was a P90X/Body Beast Hybrid workout, which is perfect to maintain my strength for my adventure travels. I ended the workout with a run on this manual treadmill, it was the first time that I've ever been on a non-electric tread, and it royally kicked my ass!

Running the Stowe Recreation Path - Vermont

Stowe Recreation Path

When my sister told me about the Stowe Recreation Path, I wasn't really interested. I am more of a trail runner. I do enjoy an occasional road race, but unfortunately, the pavement really kills my knees.

As we were driving through historic Stowe Village, I noticed the "Rec Path" weaving in and out of some pretty neat buildings and scenery, so being a fan of historic buildings and mountain scenery, I decided to run the 5.7 mile paved trail. I started from our mountain getaway which was about 3 miles, so my total distance for the day was close to 9 miles.

Running and P90X

All I can say is that I am so glad that I did it because I was able to see the seasons change before my very eyes. There were also little shops and restaurants along the way. Thompson Park was towards the last mile, and just passed the park was a Corn Maze. I didn't do the maze, but I'll try it next time =). 

If you are ever in the Stowe area, I highly recommend it. You don't have to run it if you don't want to. I saw plenty of walkers and bikers on the path. My family met me at the end of the path which ended at Brook Rd by the covered bridge, it was a great way to start my day!

Check out the video that I made from the Stowe Recreation Path, and feel free to connect with me here. Stay active my friends!
