Scissors – most people know what scissor kicks are, however if you do not, they are the same as the 6 inches you just did, but scissor kicks you are making small 3-4 inch kicks side to side while your feet are still in the air ).Flutter kicks – most people know what flutter kicks are, however if you do not, they are the same as the 6 inches you just did, but flutter kicks you are making small 3-4 inch kicks up and down while your feet are still in the air.Both of your legs are out in front of you for this exercise. Then hold them there for the allotted time. 6 inches – this is where you just hold your legs (which are together) off the ground six inches.This next set of ab work is one of my favorite sets of the whole dvd. Then put your hands underneath your respective quadriceps (right hand with right quad, left with left). As in the very first Insanity dvd the “fit test” is a c-sit that is done by sitting on your butt with your knees up and your heels on the ground. Here we repeat the set starting at the Jog. T-Jumps – These are the same as the T-Kicks but you are adding a jump in between sets, be extra careful not to hurt yourself, this is usually done by landing on your toes.Your foot will come right about to the level of your hips/belly button or higher, the stronger you are the higher you will go. If you have somebody watch you do it there is a very significant difference in the way it looks AND the way it feels. If you are doing these correctly you will notice that you do a slight standing crunch in order to get your leg in front of you. Stand straight up and hold your arms straight out to your side as if you are in a “T” then using your abdominal muscles kick your right leg out in front of you. Camp sessions is, people tend to just kick their legs up using their quadriceps/and or hip flexors, this is the wrong way to do this exercise *if* you are working out your abs (which is what we are doing here). The main thing I notice with people at our F.I.I.T. T-Kicks – This is also another exercise from previous Insanity workouts. Your knees, feet and hands are all out wide. Power jumps are similar to the tuck jumps you just did but instead of bring your knees in front of the center section of your abs, you are bringing them (your knees) outwards to where your oblique’s are by opening up your hips. Power Jumps: The key to this exercise is not going for a ton of reps, but for power and safety.Be sure to act like a cat and land softly on your toes to cushion your fall. A tuck jump is jumping straight up and using your abs to lift your knees to just in front of your center section abs. Tuck Jumps – We have done these exercises in other videos and we are doing them again today. If you do this workout as a standalone, then you will want to do more of the workout as stated below to get your core temperature up. If you are adding this workout as an “extra credit” workout, then you should already be warm. Unlike all other Insanity workouts, the format is not the same in this dvd: here we do a very quick warm-up, and then we get straight into the workout. There is a famous quote that says “abs are made in the kitchen and not the gym”. When most people think of an abdominal workout, they think of 6 or 8 pack abs and very low stomach/waistline body fat.
#Insanity workout review full
So to get the full effectiveness of the workout, I had to do some serious pacing, which is productive if you are going for muscular endurance and not strictly strength. So, for someone to go at full strength, training ONLY their abs for 30 minutes is VERY hard, almost impossible. Think about this: Usain Bolt, the fastest guy by Olympic standards, can run the 100m dash in less than 10 seconds, actually recorded at 9.58 the last I looked. Reason being is because 30 minutes dedicated strictly to your abs is A LOT of time, almost impossible unless you are an Olympic athlete. But for the purposes of what it is trying to accomplish it *is* very good. Is it bone chilling, Academy Award winning, call yo mama, P90X Ab-Ripper X good?…No. This workout is about 30 minutes long and it *is* very good. This post is a review of the dvd Insanity Insane Abs.
