Day 23 – Power Jumps Anyone?
It’s day 23 now and I feel like I am on cruise control. Not in the sense that each workout is easy, more like I am becoming very familiar with each of the workouts now and know what to expect each day. Doing an Insanity workout (or two!) each day has become ingrained in my daily routine.
Today was back to Cardio Power and Resistance and my other nemesis, Power Jumps! Power Jumps are to Cardio Power and Resistance as Switch Kicks are to Pure Cardio! At least for me. I am definitely improving and understanding the form better, but find it difficult to continually jump at the proper height one after another. My legs just run out of juice.
Anyways, got through the workout today without problems pushing myself along the way. I am noticing a few aches and pains here and there, but I think it more from the muscles working and ripping and growing than anything else. It’s not injury or anything like that.
I think the food hangover from the Super Bowl has worn off and I am looking forward to powering through the rest of the week!

I have been doing the insanity workout for 2-weeks now and can tell that I’m doing much better on the different exercises and I don’t feel completely gassed after the warm-up anymore either but definately do by the end of the workout! I have a similar build to you and was wondering if you have noticed that you’re gaining muscle from doing this workout? I have been trying to pack in about 2,500-2,600 calories a day of “good” food to help with the weight. That’s probably the toughest part for me.
Hi Jeremy,
It sounds like we are in the same boat! I am trying to gain some weight while doing this, but it is hard. I am eating about the same as you are, all healthy calories and am always trying to figure out ways to pack in more. I am not doing any protein powder, but may add that before month 2. Also, if you have any good recipes to share please do.
I can say though that my body is getting leaner and more muscular, but not in a bulky way. I probably have very little body fat at this point.
