Insanity Day 4 – Cardio Recovery

4 days in, I have performed the 30+ minute fit test as well as two pretty intense cardio workouts. I’m pretty sore and worked over but my main sources of pain are calfs and quads. During the workouts I have had thoughts about whether I can actually handle Insanity. But, I assure you if you’ve made it this far you can make it the whole way. Those first two workouts are killer. You are feeling like you need a day off. But, Cardio Recovery is just what the doctor Shaun T., ordered.

Cardio Recovery consists mainly of a lot of stretching and some exercises based out of stretching positions. Now, mind you, this is still Insanity so you will be doing deep lunges, squats and balance moves and you will be holding these for upwards of a minute at times.  I was still drenched head to toe by the time it was over. But this was a welcome break, needless to say.
