I was able to make it through the series, which was good. You start out with hands in the two middle boxes of the ladder and then each set (5 pushups, 10 seconds plank = 1 set) you move your hands wider to other boxes and then back in working your entire upper body, abs and even legs in the process. One of my favorite moves was the sequence of pushups with the agility ladder where you perform 5 pushups followed by 10 seconds plank hold for what I believe was around 4 minutes or so without a break. I used 30-lb dumbbells for the compound sets, although I may consider 25-lb dumbbells next time to really focus more on the form and hitting all reps. I felt the warm-up was a bit easy compared to say Vertical Plyo in Insanity Asylum Volume 1, however, it did the job and got me prepared for what was to come. To be honest, it may take me a few times with this workout to be able to master some of the agility sequences that involve multiple variations in one set. The moves challenge the total body and the agility ladder is leveraged throughout the workout. 50 minutes in length and consists of essentially four Agility X-Trainer circuits.

After loading up on E&E Energy and Endurance, I pressed play. I selected X-Trainer since most reviews indicate that it may be the most challenging of all Asylum 2 workouts. Now as for cardio, it would be hard to get better than Asylum and thus far I have not seen anything that comes. I wanted to test drive Asylum 2 today following Body Beast graduation last week.
