OKso here was my first taste of Mike Chang's Insane Home Fat Loss system
First it is just under 17 minutes long which I think is prob a bit to short, but was I dripping sweat at the end of it? YES. Was I struggling on the push ups at the end? YES.
So really in just under 17 minutes I was dripping sweat and pretty tired out. All in all a good workout if you ask me. I mean I am tired, but I feel like it should be a bit longer, but hey if it works its works. This is really awesome to grab a quick kick butt workout.
Now remember I am coming from the Insanity workout end of it where it was about a 45 minute workout and the warm up alone was 9 minutes. I am not as tired or as sweaty as after that, but I do feel like I got a good workout in.
I would say for someone who is just starting out this is going to be a great system. Not only that, but for me right now time is short and the summer is crazy so this is really what the DR ordered since it is short and gave me a decent workout.
Basically here is how the first workout breaks down. You get started and bust out about 2 minutes of warm up with jogging in place, jumping jacks, high knees. You then jump into the circuit which is 3 circuits of the same exercise. You do all for just about 30 seconds then take a 15second break.
So overall you are looking at 2o minutes for this workout. The moves are pretty easy, but they should show you the moves right in the beginning. A lot of the people are doing slightly different things lol, but you get the point. I was dripping sweat, my legs are tired and sore. I'd say it was a good workout!
OK I am back at it. I wanted to really try and get to the workouts within a week, but I haven't been able to. Anyways today was The Super Hero workout and it was pretty super. The one thing I can say for these quicker workouts is that since I know they are quick I tend to really focus on my form and go all out on the exercises where as with longer workouts I will sometimes slack a bit since I know I have to save my energy for me lol.
Again it was only 20 minutes and as I type this I still have sweating dripping off my head. Like I have been saying I love the quickness of these workouts, but if you were really looking for a 30-40 minute workout you could always do a few extra warm up circuits or one more exercise circuit. You could probably even do 2 Routines on the same day, just need to figure out which ones match up better together. Stay tuned for reviews of the rest of the insane home fat loss workout.
Well I always love getting some upper body in. There were a lot of push up type moves which always suck when doing for the first time. I did like the variations and there were moves that I have never actually done before. My abs are sore from Day5 so that didn't help, but overall another great workout.
I love and hate working out legs. We all know the burn that you can get when really working your legs, but that is truly how we get stronger and burn more fat by using the bigger muscle groups. Today's workout had some really cool exercises and I wanted to quit into the 3rd circuit but I pushed through.
Well I have manage to do a workout the last 3 days in a row. I feel really sore, my abs are really sore from Monday. I like feeling sore though, it shows I am working hard and it shows that all you really need is a 20 minute workout.
There ya have it another Insane Home Fat Loss workout over and again I am pretty beat up from it. I have to say this series of workouts is pretty intense. I have been sore all week and have been dripping sweat from each workout. Not to mention I am getting these done on my lunch break! Stayed tuned for tomorrow I will finish the last workout of insane home fat loss by Mike Chang.
I hope you enjoyed my review of Insane Home Fat Loss. I was really excited to do the workouts and let other people know about them. With so many scams out there it is hard to find something good. For $67 this program was well worth it. 20 minutes a day and you are dripping with sweat? Cannot beat that. The production was not Hollywood, but hey I was able to follow the workouts and get some great exercise in and that is what counts. It took me over two weeks to finish all the workouts because of schedule, but If you get in a schedule with this workout I think it can do a few things for you. If you are already in shape it will keep you going and if you are beginner it is just long enough and challenging enough to give you a great foundation to move onto something else.
Today I actually went back to Insanity because I have more time at lunch and I was amazed at how I jumped right back into it. Now I know this is because Insane Home Fat Loss was really helping me stay strong and tight. Again if you read over my posts you will see I was real sore during these workouts since I was working out new ways and really getting a pump. That is the true key to a good workout. Make sure you are changing it up, challenging yourself as you do it and feeling sore from it.
Hey what's up everyone! I wanted to do a review on American Gainz today! Adam the owner had reached out to me and asked if I would like to try some of his new product. Of course I said yes....Adam sent over some Tactical Recovery & PB Gains... more on that below!I am not going to go into some long in-depth history of the company, because...
Your grief will probably not be gone in a few weeks or even months. Because of the special relationship we have with our dogs, grief of a beloved dog can often be more intense than the death of a family member, and coming to terms with the change will take as long as it takes.
The idea that every loss is a multiple loss is one of the Seven Principles of Grief by J. Shep Jeffries (2007). If you want a giant overview of the grief process, I recommend you read that book. Here is his full list of grief principles:
These are things you can do to help even if your loss was a long time ago. You will always love your dog. But if the loss was recent or tears still overcome you whenever you think of your dog, the grief may not be fully processed, and your health and relationships can suffer because of it. There are many other things to do, but here are five important ways you can take care of yourself.
It may also be helpful to work with a therapist. While the grieving process is not a problem to be fixed, it is a time of tumultuous emotionality, from relief and intense guilt to anger and sadness. The loss of your dog may be an opportunity to understand the grief process and to work on the unprocessed grief of other losses in your life.

August 29th, 2011 at 1:21 pm Thanks for sharing, Nancy. There are a lot of things that people do or say that can accidentally hurt, like handing you tissue when you start to cry (versus just letting you talk or cry and having tissue around, in case you need it). Any tips from your own experience that you can share for what people should or should not do would be useful for the people reading this blog.

September 8th, 2011 at 4:02 pm Hi everyone,
I just wanted to let you know that I have read all the stories posted here and hope that it brings me some solitude to an aging dog.
I have a Great Dane that is not in good condition and I know that I must put him down and it is killing me to even think of it. He has trouble breathing and if he gets over excited he cannot breathe, causing him to gasp for air. This came on suddenly and it is in his lineage of danes so I know he cannot go on for long.
I am hoping I can cope with the loss as I am tearful already and it hurts worse than losing a loved one. He has been with me since he was born and now he is 7 and I keep praying that it is not the end yet but I know it is.
So I know where all of you are comming from and the intensive pain that follows, my only hope is that I can function normaly, but I must admit losing him will really put the dampers on any thing I do.
Hope more people have comments that will help me ease the pain. Thanks to everyone for their stories and I know what you have felt. Thanks again

October 7th, 2011 at 10:24 amHello Grisha,One of your students is a collegue of mine that told me about your services and suggested I reach out to tell you about my pet loss support groups in Northgate. I facilitate a Dog Gone 4 week pet loss support group to help end the isolation that comes with pet loss.

November 22nd, 2013 at 1:53 pm I just read your comment and I just wanted you to know how sorry I am for your loss. I lost my 2 babies within 9 days of each other in June and it was devastating. Things have gotten a little better, but the deep sting of loss will always be there.
Just know that I will be praying for you and there are many of us who understand what you are going through, and you are not alone.
