The word of the day is definitely Schadenfreude. It means “to derive pleasure from someone else’s misery”. A great example of this would be me, today, watching Heather do her Plyo Cardio Circuits while completely hungover. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen anyone go that shade of green before. Ahhh, you just can’t buy entertainment […]

Today was my final workout for month 1 and what a workout it was. Jon and I’d been out at a party last night and I was feeling just a bit delicate this morning Jon, of course, was absolutely fine and thought it was extremely funny. Bastard!!! On the plus side I did get a […]

Today I was feeling a little like this :- I have to say my motivation is at an all time low. I’m not sleeping very well due to the high humidity , so every morning when I get up I still feel exhausted. I summoned up what little energy I had and managed to get […]

Today was my final Cardio Recovery, in this round of Insanity and although I was able to hold the lunges and plies I’ve still not mastered the balance poses. In fact I can quite honestly say I completely suck. I have noticed my balance is definitely better on my right side, which makes it all […]

I’m ba-a-ack! I couldn’t believe it when I fell ill last Monday night. I was all ready to give it my all in the final week of the first month of Insanity. Fate, unfortunately, had other plans, and stepped in to prevent me from working out for the rest of the week. I realised by […]

It was Plyo Circuits today – but more importantly, it was the very last day of month one, so I’m high as a kite right now. Yeah, I know it’s only the preparation for month two. Yeah, I know month two is really much, much tougher, I’ll sweat more, die more, fail more, cry more et […]

Well the t-shirt arrived and here it is in all its glory Not sure how long it’s going to last as I’m actually going to be wearing it 24/7 🙂 If anyone reading this is in Zurich, Switzerland look out for me and come say “hi“. I’ve unfortunately not been able to workout this week […]

Hey readers, been a few days since my last blog because I’ve been just too damned exhausted to hit the keyboard after pressing Play at the end of a lo-o-o-o-ng day in the office. I haven’t missed a single workout though, so I’m happy with that. A mystery stomach bug has hit our happy home, […]

After a weekend full of ups and downs I really was not looking forward to todays workout. I’d got the date wrong of a concert I’d booked last year for my husband, and was completely gutted to find out that it had actually been the previous night. Subsequently we ended up going off for a […]

Well I definitely was not feeling like a workout today, especially an Insanity one. I’ve not been sleeping to good for the past few nights and I’ve felt like I’ve actually gained weight as opposed to lost it, so all in all feeling pretty crappy. The weather has well and truly changed for the better, […]
