INSANITY DAY 3 of 60

Hey Everyone,

Day 3 of Insanity was rough! I was hoping for a little break. That didn't happen! The workout is about 40 minutes long. The warm up is similar to the Plometric Cardio Circuit with jog in place, then to power jack squat move, log jumps, 123-123, some butt kicks, high knees and vertical jumps. Next is a stretch workout, power jumps, belt kicks followed with some kind of squat with alternating kick move. I could go on and on. Bottom line, I can't feel my butt, and I am sure my triceps are done tomorrow too. The tricep ball pushup was a weird exercise move but worked out the triceps more than I expected.

I don't have a heart monitor but I am seriously thinking about getting one. I am enterested in how many calories I am burning each session as well. If any of you know a good inexepensive brand please send a comment. Okay, I am scheduling a message tomorrow afternoon! Until next time. Pray for me! :-)

XOXO

SPRING Runway 2010

Roberto Cavalli Runway show: Displayed a mix of floral palettes, sweet-heart necklines and silk dresses in shades of lavendar & gray.

Roberto Cavalli labeled it a call to a simpler lifestyle, though some would probably be happier with his evening gowns I definately prefer this. There's something about a well made beautiful floral dress.

Makeup Artist ICON Pat McGrath created an exaggerated eye with heavy black eyeliner on the lid that extended out in a tick. A taupe shadow was shaded on to the browbone and lashes were kept bare.

Fashion trend: Fuchsia handbags. Wear hot pink or fuchsia bags w/denim or a cute black dress. Spray bag with a protectant for lasting color.

I'm looking for reviews on Beyonce's new HEAT fragrance. Message me if you have it or have smelled it please!

INSANITY DAY 2 of 60

Day 1 was so much nicer. :-) No really, I can't feel my a$$ right now. Day 2 was Plyometric Cardio Circuit, about 42 minutes of craziness. LOL! Kidding it was great. My body feels alive again. I am extremely sore and found out...out of shape. I can honestly say I have never done cardio like this before. It's extreme. You can work at your pace though. Just take a break when you need it but DON'T QUIT! Get a partner. It is so much easier when you have in your face support. My partner... the love of my life! Love you Papi!

XOXO Besos!

INSANITY DAY 1 of 60

FOR THE LOVE OF short skirts, skinny jeans, and flat abs! I started INSANITY yesterday and have decided to input my progress on my blog. If not for your entertainment...for my own SANITY. HA! Well, honestly I figure I will finally stick to it if I am forced (my choosing) to write it out for my fans.

The program instructor named "Shaun T" is pretty decent. I like that he does the workouts with you. This program is definitely not for the weak or lazy. It demands YOUR 110% inner muscle man or woman. Great for the cardio freak! Love it so far. Seems a little easier to do then the P90X. You don't need to work about equipment. The main machine is YOU!

Here is what I did on day one...

DAY 1 "Fit Test"

Switch Kicks 51
Power Jacks 40
Power Knees 72
Power Jumps 23
Globe Jumps 7
Suicide Jumps 8
Push-Up Jacks 12
Low Plank Oblique 40

Okay...So, I am suppose to do this again in 2 weeks to check my progress. I was exhausted. You do as many of each exercise in 1 min each. You get quick break in between so don't worry it's not straight through.

I am excited about tomorrow. We will see how this works out. I am committed and ready to get back to my size 4-6. OH YEAH! Besos everyone! Wish me luck.

XOXO

To Reverse or Not to Reverse?

Reverse or Inverted bob hairstyles are really up to date and super chic! This sophisitcated look can be easily textured just on the ends or all around your head. You can easily achieve a stunning look by parting your hair lower on one side, this way you can still pull it back or to the other side of your face. Another variation is the look shown here. With purple highlights and a straight bang. LOVE IT!
