rest day for insanity

angie_sample

so today is suppose to be my day off for insanity and i am going to take a break. I was wondering though i usually go to the gym most days, should i skip that too? I'll go a little lighter and just do 30-40 minutes of light cardio, no running or anything just get my heart pumping for a bit. Do u think this is ok? or should i take a break from all exercise?

take a rest day give your muscle time to rest

Take a rest day unless you absolutely can't stand not working out. It wont affect your weight loss

Take a full rest day. Enjoy a slow walk outside, or some yoga if you feel like you have to do something. That's what I do on my rest days from Insanity.

ok ill take a rest day and just go for a short walk or something. I just kind of feel lazy when i dont do anything. But i dont want to overload my muscles, i've been working out a lot lately. less than 2 months before my sisters wedding so im working extra hard to get down 10-12 pounds before June 23rd

I'm doing P90x and usually do sneak something in on my 'rest' day. Something very light though. I'd say listen to your body, if you're exhausted take the day off. If you feel up to a little activity then go ahead and do it. Only you know how your body feels.
