On to a great recovery

So today was my second cardio recovery day and just like the other DVD's I wanted to try and make it through this one without having to stop or come out of any of the exercises like I had to the first time. I tell you what for a recovery DVD it is pretty darn hard. It isn't the sweat producing workout the other DVDs are but it is pretty hard at some points. It starts out pretty OK a few good bits of stretching followed by some slow squats. All that isn't so bad it is once you get into the end of the squats and you find yourself holding squats and lunges and doing pulses that really light you on fire. When the time is up and you get to get up your legs truly feel like they are burning, not like a I just worked them out really well burn but a oh my god get me out of this fire type of burn! I pushed through it and had to really breath but I did it. Now that it is over my legs have been pretty sore most of the day but I know when I wake up tomorrow they will be feeling much much better so all the pain today was worth it. Tomorrow is going to be back to the sweating, I have cardio power and resistance and will be finishing up my second week with my first double workout. From this point on all the pure cardio days have the cardio abs workout along with it so they will be a little longer and I am sure a bit more difficult but you all know me by now I am going to go after them like I do all the other workouts and see how it goes. I am thinking tomorrow is going to be a wake up early and get it done day because I have to get the lawn mowed, starting working on the one year list for our builder, get the workout in, get my tires rotated, and spend time with the family all in a single day so if I can get the workout done before Haley wakes up and the lawn done after breakfast it will make getting everything else done much easier. Lets see if I can get through cardio power and resistance without stopping twice or if it was just luck the last time.
