Wow, on Day 45 already.  Today was a very difficult workout for me.  The workout I did was the Max Interval Plyo workout.  I know exactly why it kicked my ass today, it was because I was off of my regular routine.  Every day I do these workouts at about 5:00pm after I get home from work.  During the day, I am drinking a ton of water and at 3:00pm I have a nice, healthy, calorie filled snack (like an apple with peanut butter or something).  I need this fuel to get me through the rest of the day and the workout.

Well, today I had to go to a customer’s site and left work about 1:00pm.  It ended up being done about 3:30pm which was nice because I got home a bit early, but because of that I didn’t get to drink much water or have a snack.  It showed up during the workout.  You definitely need fuel in your body for these Max workouts!

I got through the warm up relatively ok, but by the first circuit I was wiped.  It was odd because my heart rate was not high at all, but I just had no gas in the tank.  Of course, I dug deeper and got through it and did as much as I could, but it was discouraging.  It was the first time I actually had the the thought enter my mind of stopping the disc (but I didn’t). Now I just gotta stop letting this day job thing get in the way of my Insanity workouts!

On a good note, I got to use my new Polar FT7 Heart Rate Monitor for the first time and I loved it.  I will write another post reviewing it tomorrow.
