I finally made it to month 2 of Insanity & the first day was definitely as hard as I thought it would be. Max Interval Circuit is 59 minutes long. It begins with a warm-up, like the first month & even it seems harder. There are 3 rounds as usual, but the last round is shorter.
Here are the exercises:
Jog
Jumping Jacks w/ Arms Up
123 Heisman
Jump Rope S-S
High Knees holding Arms Out
Switch Kicks
Hit the Floor
S-S Floor Hops
After the warm up, you get a 5 min. stretch with a 30 sec. break & then you move onto the main workout.
1st set of exercises (3 rounds):
Pedal/Power Lunges (Sprint in place, 4 alternating lunges, repeat)
Ski Abs /Push up Jacks/In & Out Abs /Oblique pushups
Power Strike (Lunge left, 2 punches down, lunge right, 2 punches down)
Frog Jumps
Bonus minute of Football Runs/ Cross Jacks after the 3rd round.
Here's the 2nd set of exercises (3 rounds)
Hook Jumps (4 hook punches high, 4 hook punches low, 4 high jumps. Then you switch sides)
High Knees w/ Twist
High-Low Jab with Squat
Floor Switch Kicks
Bonus minute of 1-2-3 Jab Across
Last set of exercises (3 rounds):
Side Suicide Jumps (suicide jump to the side)
Squat Hooks (squat & hook punch at the same time, alternate sides)
Full Body Drill. (drop to the plank position, run in place 8 times, walking push ups, then 8 wide knee & up)
Plank Punches (in plank, punch right side at head level & then switch sides, keep alternating)
Finally, you do your cool down & that's it!
Month 2 is definitely harder than the first month. I took a whole bunch of breaks and I still burned over 800 calories. I knew immediately after I was done that I would be sore the next day & guess what, I am! I can't wait to see what my results will be after this month. Today I'm doing Max Interval Plyo. I'm sure it will be intense! I'll let you know...
