Insanity Workout - Week 4

Yellow! Today i finally got my REAL Insanity DVD (actually my friend send it to me :P) so maybe, baby, im gonna start the REAL program from monday.

I was actually getting a little bit bored from doing the same routine every day. But in the real Insanity program there is so much more variation. Like some days you do a hard core cardio for 40 mins, some days you can relax and do more streching and stuff for 30 mins or some days the focus is more on abs and so on. It is very important to keep changing the workout routine actually, otherwise you will eventually just reach a plateau (read: get bored).

This week i have been eating a lot more GREENS as well. Did you know that chimpanzees, who actually share about 99.4% genes with us, eat almost HALF of their daily foods from greens?

Im not sayin´ we should eat exactly like them, but there is something to think about for sure. I got this chart from Victoria Boutenko´s book "Green for Life". You can see the link to it here: http://www.hcgfatloss.com/victoria-boutenko/green-for-life/how-chimpanzees-eat.htm









I made this yummy and very simple spinach soup. What looks like poison, because of this dark deep green colour. But it was very delicious actually and im sure very nutritious.

It goes something like this:

2 bunches of spinach
1/8 red onion (optional)
3 cups rice milk

and thats it!

(Its not my picture, sorry! I just wanted to add some)

You just boil the spinach in the milk. Just to soften it a little bit. And then you blend it until you reach creamy texture with a hand blender. It was soo good. I also made a big salad with more greens, red cabbage, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, carrot, some couscous and steamed broccoli :)
