Day 40 of 63: Max Interval Circuit

Workout Time: 60 minutes
Calories Burned: 725

Last time I did this work out I only got half way through. Today, I completed the video. Completed in the sense that I watched the entire video - not actually worked out the entire video :P.

The workout was divided into 7 sections:
1) Warmup
     - It has 3 sets as usual with things like jogging, jumping jacks, Heisman, jump rope, high knees, switch kicks, hit the floor, S-S floor hops (very intense). I could barely finish the first set!

2) Interval 1
     - Also 3 sets of sprint, lunges, ski abs, jacks, in & outs, oblique planks, power strike, and frog jumps
3) Interval 2
     - And yet another 3 sets of football runs, cross jacks,
4) Interval 3
     - 3 sets of hook jumps, high and low punches, high knees with twist, high & low jabs, floor switch kicks (worst exercise!!!!!).
5) Interval 4
     - Jab and step across exercises. 3 sets
6) Interval 5
     - Side suicide jumps, squat + hooks, full body drill, plank punches.
7) Cool down / Stretch

I took many many breaks actually but still burned 725 calories. Imagine if I did the entire workout.

My least favorite was definitely the floor switch kicks. You definitely need to have strong arms, legs and abs. I couldn't really do them properly so I just lifted my legs and didn't really do the jumping switch.

My favorite was the full body drill which consisted of running in plank, moving pushups, some weird side plank movement and so on.

This workout was definitely INSANE!! But, it did make me burn over 700 calories :D
