Bringing Some Insanity to 2012

Bobby has started his job at White Bear Lake Mitsubishi Suzuki this week, and his boss is super fit and does P90X and/or the Insanity workout like twice a year. We've known his boss for several years and he's been in great shape the whole time. Now, Bobby works for him and sees him every day which has a little bit of an intimidation factor to it.

Today, I was sitting at home, stretching after doing Zumba, and watching infomercials. The Insanity Workout one was on, and I thought to myself "I'll bet (our friend) owns this and I happen to know he just bought Insanity Asylum so we could probably borrow it...I'll ask Bobby."

Cut to dinner tonight and I brought it up with Bobby. He admitted that being around his boss is actually a great motivator to get back in shape and he would think about doing Insanity. THEN I brought up BOTH of us doing it. First he laughed, then he didn't believe me, then he considered it. After finding out that Bobby can get a hold of the DVD's on Monday, we've agreed to go through with it.

There will be a couple of days a week when we'll have to workout separately, which I'm fine with, but most days we can do it together, which will be motivating. For anyone who doesn't know what the heck I'm talking about, this is Insanity. Basically, 60 days of intense cardio plyometric training. I have the feeling that I'll be going to be a lot earlier every day, and drinking more coffee the first couple of weeks. But I'm ready. I'm actually really excited because it's something we're doing TOGETHER to benefit ourselves individually and as a couple. Wish us luck!
