'DEATH WORKOUT'
Is what i was thinking after completing this, compared to Month 1...holy crap!
The difference with this Month 2 workout to the previous is the time: (59minutes) and the amount of energy i needed, oh and the amount i sweat during. Wondering if somehow there's a way to not sweat so much...with Insanity, doubt it.
The warmup with this workout is similar to Month 1's.
Jog: As usual
Jumping Jacks with arm's up: Slightly different, no more angel arms, get them up and straight
123's: Guaranteed to trip up at least once
Jump Rope side to side: Different, and i feel a bit like a pansy
High Knees with arms out: Much harder than normal high knees, ouch
Switch Kicks: In the warmup...REALLY?
Hit the floor: Again, in the warmup....are you mad?
Side to side floor hops: These are fun and i like hopping.
And guess what, do all of this 3 times!
Then we have our lovely stretch which lasts about 5 minutes, i'm getting seriously flexible lately too. My hamstrings no longer ache at all! Which is odd, considering there's usually always a twinge of an ache when stretching. I think with warming my muscles up throughly every day then stretching is really doing em good!
The workout begins...
The whole lot of circuits last approx 39 minutes which is how long a full workout including warmup and stretches lasted in Month 1..so you can already see it's gunna be tough!
Basically we have three circuits compling about 3 or 4 exercises into each, with three rounds each ciruit.
The first circuit consists of Pedal/Power lunges, these really target your quads, and burn. Especially by the third round. Ski Abs/Jacks/In&Outs/Obliques, kinda like a dance routine haha. You gotta try and learn the sequence and then complete it, will get easier once you've done it a few times. Aaand, Power Strike closely followed by Frog Jumps!
After the third round we did some Football Runs and Cross Jacks for a minute. Everything burns and we still had two more circuits to go!
Second circuit we have Hook Jumps, really make you puff after. High Knees with twists, can occasionally get cramp with this one from the twists, High-Low Jab with squat, Floor Switch Kicks - these almost have me crying, arms shaking, sweat dripping..not fun.
After the third round we got to do a fun filled minute of 123 Jab Across. Helped me to recover slightly as my heart was almost pounding outta my chest.
Finally, third circuit, WOOOO. We haaave, Side Suicide Jumps, these are just ridiculous..seriously. Squat Hooks, i like punching air. Full body drill comes next, Plank Punches and then finally we're done!
Shaun T and the posse collapse to floor after this one, normally i don't join then..opting to stand up and shake it off, but i had to...i collapsed and i enjoyed it.
This MAX business may just kill me off.
