Day 4 - Cardio Recovery

Ahhhhh, that felt nice! After two days of crazy workouts, my body needed that relaxing workout. It definitely wasn't easy but it was way more yoga-based, so I now feel awesome! I noticed in the first two workouts that he hardly stretches your calf muscles, so I've had to do that on my own. This workout included a little downward dog action, and my calf muscles really needed it!

Shaun T channeled my favorite squat and lunge guru, Debbie Siebers, in this workout too! We did slow squats with some pulses and slow lunges with some pulses too. Brought me back to my Slim in 6 days! He even did leg lifts but of course they had to be INSANE. Instead of doing leg lifts on all fours just lifting one leg, you actually balanced on one of your toes and did the leg lifts. Nice!

All in all, it was 338 calories, and a much needed stretch/break from the INSANITY!

  2. I appreciate you giving these details. I'm planning on getting INSANITY in the winter and like having the preview (too hot right now!). Hopefully by then, I'll have finished P90X round2 and had another round in to prepare me for it.
