Insanity Workout Recovery day is here, and it was needed. I still can’t believe how difficult the holds are during this workout. You start with slow squats at a 16 reps. Then while down in your 16th rep Shaun has you hold the squat for more than a minute. I can not hold very long, I have to repeatedly go in and out of these…insane. Ok, so after you minute hold then Shaun wants 16 pulses (mini squats) from the squat position, are you kidding me! My legs were jello and shaking, but I held on as long as I could. Guess what your not done there, next we go to lunges and do the same routine in the lunge on both sides. Other than the squats and lunge holds most of the rest of the “recovery day” is fairly doable for me. Just standing still and doing yoga moves as well as the lunges and squats my heart rate still peaked at 157. This routine is only 33 minutes long so it’s over before you know it. Tomorrow there are two seperate workouts listed one of which is Cardio Abs. I have not even previewed it so I have no idea what I’m in for.
