Shaun T called “ Power Legs” his least favorite workout in Asylum, Volume 2. Be forewarned, it will bring you to your knees by the end! Upper Elite is true resistance circuit training. He then finishes you off with a burnout consisting of 9 exercises. Some rounds he will through in some agility moves as well.

ShaunT starts each round with some kind of push-up and then moves into a Chest Press, Bicep Curl, Shoulder Move and finally a Tricep Move.

This workout is a full 60 minutes long and has 6 rounds plus a 5+ minute burnout sequence at the end. However, as I kept increasing my weight on Elite Upper, I may be reconsidering that opinion. My initial impression that “Elite Upper” was in fact easier then “Strength”. And for anyone who has done that workout knows that the 3 Rounds of Progressive Dumbbell Rotations is a tough bar to beat in terms of difficulty. One major difference is that “Strength” had lower body work as well. There has been a lot of debate as to whether “ Upper Elite” is harder than “ Strength“ from Volume 1. He also has a “Pyramid Weights” sequence that works your chest, back, and shoulders. And these aren’t just standard push-ups: Moving Matrix Push-Ups, Leaping Push-Ups, and Single-Arm Assisted Push-Ups. ShaunT throws in alot of push-ups in this one.

But unlike Speed And Agility, this is not all footwork. Definitely do the Agility Tutorial first! I am not coordinated and I have no rhythm, so I needed to really concentrate on these moves. X Trainer is 49:09 and while I expected “ Speed And Agility– Part 2″, it is much more diverse! It will get your brain moving as much as your body. But I will say that there was not one workout where I felt I got a Volume 1 workout that was just “redone”. So there are some parallels to Volume 1 and Volume 2 that I will highlight below. After all, there is only so much you can do with no equipment. After 60 Days of Insanity, I started to feel all the workouts where the same basic moves.

Question: Are The Asylum: Volume 1 and Volume 2 really different?Īnswer: What I like about The Asylum series is that each workout is different and there is some great variety. The pricing is very reasonable and Insanity remains to be one of the lowest cost equipment programs. You can go to the Equipment section of my website HERE to check stuff out. A Pull-Up Bar is optional as in Volume 1. If you are in good shape and have done High Intensity Interval Training, then you may be able to step into the Asylum without Insanity as a base.Īnswer: You use the same equipment as The Asylum Volume 1: Speed Rope, Agility Ladder, Strength Bands (I suggest Red and Green), and dumb bells or resistance bands. Question: Do I need to do Insanity before The Asylum: Volume 2?Īnswer: While I wouldn’t give an unequivical YES, it probably is a good idea for most people. In fact, they have a great 60-Day Hybrid schedule for Volume 1 and Volume 2 if you wanted to do both at the same time. It is not as if they build on each other. Question: Do I need to do The Asylum: Volume 1 before Volume 2?Īnswer: You definitely do not need to do Volume 1 in order to do Volume 2.

However, it is different and the focus on agility and footwork will keep your brain churning during the workout! In fact, many of the workouts are a bit easier. Question: Is Volume 2 harder than Volume 1?Īnswer: In Yy Opinion, No. I think the best way to do a review this program is to start with some Q&As. If you have not downloaded my CUSTOM Insanity Asylum, Volume 2 Worksheets, you can do that HERE. As of today, I have finished Day 12 of Insanity: The Asylum, Volume 2. While Volume 1 is entitled “ Sports Performance“, Volume 2 is entitled “ Elite Training Series“.
