Now you can see some of what I was doing!
Side note - I think Shaun is adorable. That and I'm pretty sure a Tyra appearance is more proof that he's one of my people.
Pay attention to Floor Switch Kicks - these were super hard for me and I wasn't able to get them down really well until the final week of month 2.
Note Tyra also wants Michelle Obama arms (one of my goals) and wonders if she does Ball Push-ups in the White House. I sure did them in my house!

Day 59
DVD - Max Cardio Interval
I finally got the Floor Switch Kicks! This is the move where your hands and feet are on the floor and you're making something of a table with your torso, belly up. Then you alternately kick your feet off of the floor with a hop so that at points both your feet are off the ground. It's fucking hard to hold yourself up on your arms and not crash land on your ass (as I did a few times) when both your feet are off the ground, because your center of gravity is in your hips, lower abs and buns. I wasn't strong enough to do it for long until tonight. I generally modified this move so that I was going slower, bringing my leg up higher, and always keeping one foot on the floor. This is a modification made by some of the people in the video, too. Remember, form trumps speed.
Overall, tonight was the best I have done with any of these workouts. I lagged a little the last two nights, but tonight I gave it my all and did more of each move at a faster pace than I've ever managed before. 59 days of Insanity has definitely made me more fit!
