![]() Halfway through the exercise switch sides. With the power bands the move is the same, but you are only rowing with the outside arm. * Keep your butt back in your side lunges and don’t arch your back*. Lateral Squat Row – Standing straight up with the weight still in your hands, side lunge and drop the weight to 3 inches off the ground, then row the weight into your sternum, return the weight to 3 inches off the ground then kick yourself back up to standing position. Halfway through the exercise switch to the other leg, there is no difference in exercise for the power bands. Knee Drive Curl – This exercise is just like the Halo Dead Lifts you just did however, instead of doing a tricep extension behind your head, bring the weight up to your head, then lift one knee to hip height (Note: the weight and lifting knee are working in unison). Since we are only in the warm-up be sure you can actually do all the reps and not kill yourself! If you are using power bands you are doing the same thing. Skull Crusher Press – With your legs at shoulder width apart and the dumbbell in front of your face and your hands on both sides of the dumbbell, lift the weight up, then drop it back into a two hand triceps extension behind your head, lift the weight back up and return to the starting position. ![]() ![]() If you are using power bands do the other half of the halo. Halfway through the exercise switch to counter clockwise. If you are using the power band do the exact same thing, but only do a half of a “halo” then return to the squat position. Halo Dead Lifts – Standing with your feet shoulder width apart and your hands on both sides of the dumbbell and your back straight, get into a squat position with the dumbbell in between your legs about 3 inches off the ground, as you are standing up bring the dumbbell up to your head and “halo” the weight around your head going clockwise, when you return to your squat position, this is one rep. For this review, even though I didn’t use free weights, I will describe the workouts as if I were. The good thing about Asylum is there is a split screen that supplements for us who are using power bands. Warm-up – Since I do not have any free weights at my house, I used a set of Bodylastics bands I bought a few years ago. They fill in some of the holes that were left in the regular Insanity videos, especially in your back and all your back muscles. The strength video and the whole asylum video’s are really part 2 of the Insanity series. This post is a review of Insanity Asylum Strength workout.
