Day 25-Insanity Cardio Power and Resistance

Day 25-Insanity Cardio Power and Resistance

Insanity is insane.  I convinced my gym-going-weight-loving husband to do this with me today and he decided half way through that he was done.  But he was very supportive watching me. 

This video follows the same format as other Insanity workouts.  The beginning is about 10 minutes of non stop jogging, squat jacks, butt kicks, high knees, vertical jumps, and hit the ground.  30 seconds each, 3 rounds, increasing in intensity, with no break until the end of the set. Then there's the 6 minute stretch.  Following the stretch is 2 more sets of 4 exercises each.  At the end of each set there is a bonus move.  There is a 30 second break after you complete the 4 exercises, or every 2 minutes or so.  You finish with a 3 minute cool down.

I burned 315 calories in 38 minutes.  Average heart rate 140, max 163.  If my average heart rate was 140 and there was a 6 minute stretch and 3 minute cool down, you can bet your butt that whenever I checked my heart rate it was about 155-162 during the actual workout.  This program is meant to push you to your limits so that you are continually getting stronger.
