Insanity Pure Cardio - Thoughts
Insanity's Pure Cardio clocks in at just above 38 minutes. The workout starts off with a warm up where you do a series of 7 moves. You repeat the sequence twice more each time increasing the speed of each exercise. This is followed by an extensive stretch.
The first part of the work is what he did with Plyometric Cardio Circuit. I actually really like this part of the workout. The warm up series plus the stretch ends up being about 17 minutes of the workout. I can see myself using just this part as a short get in and get out workout.
In the main part of Pure Cardio you are doing 16 moves back to back with no water break. You are doing each move for just under a minute, maybe 45 seconds. There is a double clock for this workout and the time given to this section starts at 15:11 and starts counting down. You are going all out to do as many reps as you can before moving on to the next exercise - all with no breaks. Now of course. Shaun tells you take breaks if you need them and he is taking breaks because he is stopping to see what all the participants are doing.
As I moved through the workout and became more tired, I started setting a target number for the amount of reps I was going to try to do and then I stopped and rest.
I created a worksheet for the exercise. None of the exercises repeat. You do them once and move on. The Level 2 drills starts by you jumping down and doing 8 push ups, then sprinting in the plank position and last jumping up. Suicide jumps are burpees.
The workout moves fast.
