On Friday, I successfully completed week one of Insanity Max: 30!
Finishing that first week is always the first challenge because it’s all new. You don’t know what you’re getting yourself into and it might be to difficult to even do it again the next day. After that first week it’s just a matter of proving you’re willing and want to do it.
So after completing the first week and seeing that I could do it, I decided that I wanted to continue. Just knowing that I can is a great feeling. Insanity is a difficult workout program so anything similar, even if they are shorter videos, is going to be a challenge, especially after a TBI. But knowing that I could do one week just makes me want to see what else I can do.
We can take breaks when we “max out “ or get tired, but I am trying to hang on as long as I can. Today I maxed out more than on Monday last week and it was the same video but I’ll try to do better next week. Maybe it will be easier because it’s the same routine, the order of the videos doesn’t change from week to week like it did on T25.
So now that I know I can make it all five days of the week, because I already did it once, there’s nothing stopping me. Now I just have 7 weeks to go!

I’m an aspiring writer still looking for exactly what I want to write about, with a lot of creativity, imagination and desire to write.
I studied Writing and Rhetoric at Syracuse University where I explored many different sides of writing through my classes and extracurricular activities in order to narrow my search for an identity as a writer.
I have written for Citrus TV Noticias and La Voz magazine, both of which gave me the chance to explore different mediums in which to write in. Through Citrus TV Noticias I also gained experience in translating from English to Spanish and vice versa, which is also something that I would be interested in working on since I am fluent in both of these languages. I was also an intern at Syracuse University Press where I got hands on experience in what goes into actually editing and publishing a book.
Through out the last four years I have faced a lot of challenges, which helped chape the person I am today. After being in a tragic car accident, being in comma, having a Traumatic Brain Injury, and being in therapy for over a year, I am a new me, willing to face challenges and knowing how to deal with them. I want to write about my accident and life after it to help others, show them it can be done and help in any way I can.
