It's on.

10 am - INSANITY, Plyometric Cardio Circuit, approx. 40 min, starting HR (bpm) 65, max 181, avg 150, 543 calories burned.
Shoe - Nike Skylon (tried Brooks Green Silence yesterday, not enough cushion for plyos and I feel better in a shoe with a more structured upper)
Recovery/Supplements - 21oz Cytomax, Flex-a-min, and daily multi-vitamin/mineral/antioxidant pack.  Did additional calf stretching, worked out tight calves with my Stick and will also work on them with my foam roller later today.

Of note - Holy ass-kicking Batman! I'll say this, I have never sweat that much doing a workout dvd in my life.  I am glad that I have finally found a workout that I feel gives me the same intensity as a hard run...normal workout dvds are either an add on to a run or done on an "off" day.  If you are already in shape and looking for some extra ass-kicking, I definitely recommend this!  I would consider myself to be in pretty good shape, but I had to take multiple breaks just to catch my breath and wipe away all the sweat that was pouring off of me!
