Day 2: Plyometric Cardio Circuit


For anyone not knowing the way Insanity is set up. It is 3 sets of about 7 workouts. You do not stop at all just keep going through them. Which is Jogging, Jumping Jacks, Heismens, 1-2-3's, Butt Kicks, High Knees and Mummy Kicks. Each set is even faster than the last.

The rest is a whole 30 seconds and then you start the new set of 3. The warmup which is like any basic stretches. The next set is, if my memory serves right is Suicide Drills, Jump Squats, Upright Mountain Climbers, and Ski Jumps. These ones after each set you do get a 30 second rest. Then the last set pushes you the hardest and then you do Moving feet, and Sprints.

This is all mental. You need so much mental to push yourself the furthest you can go. The Third set is the last by this point. Puking sounds fun. Abs are screaming. Basketballs, Push ups/Mountain Climbers/Jump, then Ski Abs, and one more In and outs. Which are the worst when your abs are screaming in pain. The last set is pushing, you have to add on Jabs, Cross Jacks, Uppercuts and This weird Force move.

Then finally you are done 3 sets of 3 circuits. The stretch feels amazing afterward. Just like last time I am betting the first week is going to be crazy sore.

Today so far I burned 1,620 calories, with 39 minutes of Exercise. Later Today I will be adding an hour worth of bike ride on here. I have even considered doing the 300 ab in 30 days :) or Autumn Abs on Workout Trainer :)
