How to Do a Heisman Exercise

The "Heisman" exercise is a move featured in the P90X and Insanity Asylum home workout videos from Beachbody. It's a simple moderate-impact cardio exercise that will get your heart pumping. The move imitates the motion of a football player dodging from side to side, which is displayed on the Heisman trophy. Use this move as part of a Beachbody program or incorporate it into your own routine.
