Day 4 – Cardio Recovery
Ahhhhh! This was a nice break in the action! Today’s workout was titled Cardio Recovery. The idea behind this workout is that you do lots of stretches and some power moves, but without the cardio. By far, this is the easiest workout.
Even saying that it was the easiest workout, I still could not finish all the moves! I usually cave when asked to hold a pose for a long period of time, such as sitting in a squat flexed. There is only so long you can maintain the burn.
The intent of today’s workout is to allow you muscles time to recover from the Insane workouts the days before. It felt more like an intense yoga/pilates session as he incorporated some of these moves.
One other thing to note, before I started this workout, and still to now, my body is feeling great. The intense soreness of my leg muscles has gone away. I don’t know if they will stay like this, but I feel like I have turned the corner and am definitely looking forward to continuing these Insanity Workouts!

Today felt much better the body feeling better, still with sore from new workout but not so bad, this brought body movements that i never done it before and it was twisted but i finished, it was a good day and good workout to be ready for tomorrow..God bless
I survived day 3. Not sore at all today. Like a miracle overnight
Looking forward to the next dvd. Can feel all of my unused muscles really starting to strengthen.
I had to split up these 2 excersises. The first one was enough to wear me out. maybe next time i will be able to handle both back to back.
My legs feel less liek stone heading into day four…I love that this “recovery” is destroying my hammies and calves.
I play indoor soccer on Thursdays, so day 4 has been wonderful to get me stretched out before going out there. Though the lingering legs of stone may hinder my performance. To be determined…damn you Shaun T
