    Yep! I look forward to this day and rest day. Bad thing tho' is because of the type of workout it is I have to force myself to do it.

    It was a good break today! I did feel like I could have done another cardio workout BUT I know I won't feel that way next week at this time!

    It was nice to do this one. Even though it's easier you still get a nice burn in the legs. Pure Cardio next, Yeah!!!!

    I could do without this workout...I only burned 103 calories today from doing it. Had to go for a run to feel like I accomplished something....

    I like Cardio Recovery, yeah I burn less but I actually find it difficult and really "feel the burn"...the stretching is great too!

    it is recovery stretching etc. I really consider it a rest day. Even though it really isn't "easy" you don't get your HR up like insanity workouts.
