Insanity Asylum, Day 19 – Game Day and Overtime
May 27, 2011 4 Comments
This was the second time that Game Day came up in the 30 day schedule.
I’m a former athlete. I played basketball and softball in high school and softball in college.
Drills and hard work are normal for me. I’m accustomed to that.
THIS workout takes it to a whole new level.
I’m not going to tell you it was “no big deal” or that it “wasn’t bad”.
In my opinion, it was KILLER.
The Game Day workout is 60 minutes long. It starts with a short warm up with the agility ladder (honestly, I’ve never done such intense warm ups before, lol).
Next comes a 6 minute mile run which consists of some high knees, kick backs on the butt, one arm down in a plank-like position while running “up hill”, and a sprint at the end. Don’t get tired yet!
Shaun T also includes, soccer kicking drills that build like a pyramid, tennis drills with the agility ladder, basketball lay up drills that also include a little bit of shot faking in the triple threat stance, basketball jump shot drills, swimming drills on the floor, wrestling moves, football drills with the agility ladder, long jumps with the agility ladder, speed skating drills (DANG), a few 100 meter dashes, and some pitching and hitting drills at the end with mountain climbers and vertical jumps incorporated into them.
I’m not kidding around, and Shaun T isn’t either. He tells you that from the beginning.
You know how on most workouts you can skip past the warning in the beginning? This one won’t let you!
I really enjoy this workout. It’s a great sweat, calorie burning workout.
If you are use to INTENSE workouts, give this one a try. It’s incredible. I can’t believe what it’s especially done for my core and my shoulders already.
Have you done the Asylum? What are your thoughts?
