I was supposed to do the Cardio recovery session today but i assumed it would be more chilled so I decided against that as I didnt have a massive gym sess yesterday. Is there Cardio Recovery session less intense??
Cardio Recovery is less intense, but you still have plank work to get through. It's a good overall stretch and core workout and is still important.0 -
I'm alrighty in the 3rd week of insanity, but i'm still joining in with you! =D0

cool. thanks for the info. think il do the cardio recovery tomoro morning then hit the kettlebells in the evening. think i need to get a HRM, especially for the interval training.0

I want to get in 2 days of Strength Training & 2 days of Running each week while doing Insanity. I did Plyo Cardio Circuit yesterday along with my run. Not sure which days are best to add ST and Running...
Which DVDs should I pair my ST and Running with?0 -
Good luck to everyone starting it, it's a great program I am 1 1/2 weeks away from finishing it, then I'm going to do 3 days of random insanity workouts a week and 3 days of c25k.0

Do you follow the nutrition plan when you do InsanityKarenborter just started her P90X and Insanity hybrid as well. I'll be keeping my carbs around 100 grams a day. Both programs are basicly lower carb, so that's what I'm doing. I've been doing better with watching my carbs and sugar. I will revisit the Insanity food suggestions, but you know we all have our favorites.
Looking at this.. how do you only eat 100 g of carbs a day.. I guess what are you eating rather? Just out of curiousity b/c I'd like to scale back on my carb intake but am clueless what to eat.. I work out alot in addition to insanity so need to eat alot of cals... Any ideas would be appreciated...thanks

A nutrition guide came with the workout if you bought if from Beachbody or a Beachbody coach. insanity uses primarily high protein. To achieve this I use protein shakes, raw almonds, eggs, chicken, etc.0 -

Yep, I still can't stand those moving push-ups and the plank work. But it all works together to get a great mid-section.0 -
We did Cardio Recovery this morning and I just finished a lunch hour run on the treadmill. First week is going well.0

Pure Cardio gave me a beating this morning! The muscles just above my knees have been so incredibly sore that doing some moves has been a challenge, but it was a great feeling to get through the workout today. You know it's good when Sean T. even says that he's scared! Lovin' Insanity!!!0 -
If this is you're first time on Insanity, I recommend taking a joint support supplement or Aleve gel caps. They can be your best friend.0

Been out the house all day so I just finished Pure Cardio. WOW, that was a workout...Warm-up my butt, my heart rate was up to 175. Pure Cardio kicked my butt and I LOVED IT!!! This is my fav DVD so far
Edorice-Thanks for the advice! I'll look into it. What protein powder do you recommend?0 -

I just bought a 4 pound tub of Nu-Tek Pro 5 banana flavored protein. I love it so far. It has about 145 calories per scoop, 32 grams protein, and 2 carbs. Two carbs!!! I was buying Jay Robb protein, but it is more expensive.0
