I feel like I'm flailing around all stupid. Same here. I feel silly doing them. Hahaha thank god. I thought it was just me. And the same with the 1-2-3 heismans. I stop during those a lot. Not from being tired but because I start fucking up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin848 Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 Haha, slow it way down and get the rythym before you start. I used to get really frustrated with those during the warmups, until I just calmed down and made myself pay attention. My roommate was doing this with me for a while and he continued to be the same way. I tried to help me but he would rather do some weird ass sideways run skip instead of doing it right. The 1-2-3 is all about quickness of your feet and getting your knee up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin848 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 So I took my firefighter Physical Ability Test today. It's the reason I started training with Insanity. Passing was under 9:30, and I finished in 8:23. Here is what has to be done: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 That firefighter thing looks exhausting! I've had shin splints for like 4 days now. I haven't been able to do the workout. I'm still doing push ups and squats to get some exercise done but it sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbruise Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I started this today. I'm an even 6ft, at 254lbs. Not good. I'm hoping to drop a substantial amount. The fit test beat my ass though, I was pretty dehydrated and knew that going in that I would hurt afterwards, I got pretty dizzy. Going to be hydrating all day, for tomorrow it really begins.

000000 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 working on my stamina so i can start this as well. i did the fit test a few weeks ago and knew i wasnt even close to being ready, so i've just been working on eating healthier and walking/running more so i don't nearly pass out during the test again. hopefully in a few weeks i'll be ready to try again!

Just power through it. The work outs will help your stamina improve as you go. Just try your best but take a break if you need to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Oh man! I took a week off so my shin splints could heal completely and they still hurt a tiny bit, but that week off made me soft or something. I think I sweated a lot more today than any other day.
