INSANITY!

Ok so I've been trying for a long time to get myself into a mindset to get fit and bulk up, but time after time I fail, due to lazyness or lack of motivation. But to be fair I haven't given it full effort, so I end up staying skinny and looking the exact same as I did a few years ago, which I guess is good because I'm not fat by any means but I'm also not fit.

So since I watch a lot of late night tv I run across infomercials periodically, and being that they are pitching to the lazy bastards out there just watching tv 24/7 they like to show workout programs.

 The one they happened to be plugging this particular night was the Insanity workout program by Shaun Thompson (Shaun T) a health/fitness trainer. His other releases are "hip-hop abs", "Shaun T's fit club" and "Rockin body" his bio can be found here. They advertise this workout as the toughest workout routine etc etc, the part I liked is that you don't need any additional equipment, just you. Now usually these things blow by me and I don't take a second look, but I thought "hey I'm not doing anything right now to improve myself" and the claim is that in 60 days you will be in peak physical condition if you give it everything you've got.

Like I said I usually don't get pulled into stuff like this but since I am a ruthless internet pirate,

I'm able to for-go the $120.00 price tag plus $24.95 shipping and get the entire dvd collection free of charge. So my plan is to start Monday, as the schedule is Monday-Saturday and my end date for the 60 day period is January 17th. My goal is not to lose weight (because I would float away if I did) but to gain lean muscle mass and hopefully attain that washboard ab look. I am hoping that it is as hard as advertised, I watched a little of the warm-up and it looks like it is pretty intense so thats exciting. Since I didn't have to pay for it I have nothing to lose only to gain, my other hope is to bring up my mood by working out every day, having a goal in mind is positive and a part of my new thought model so I am hopeful that this will help improve things for me. Cheers.
