I got home too late to workout last night. It was 11:00, I was exhausted and afraid to put the baby in his own bed for fear he'd wake up. So I went to bed with a belly full of chicken chimichanga, Margarita, and bachelorette party cake. This morning my little man was a perfect angel and let me get one workout in. I chose Lower Body first and will save Cardio for later. My tips for the Lower Body workout? Make lunges, squats, and calf raises your friends. Anyone who has been through a cardio recovery day of Insanity will be able to handle this. The lunge pulses and holds burn, burn, burn but if you breathe you can get through them. There are some new moves and returning. The calf work is new and I like it because there was no calf work in Insanity. The lunges are old hat, but that doesn't make them any less effective. Lunges just work for a lower body workout. The squats were old hat to but the addition of lunges and squats and up and over and squats was a pretty good cardio workout. I was breathing hard. For those of you that follow through with Tania's modifications, only half of the exercises had modifications. Don't be scared though, I just don't think there was enough range of motion or variation in lunges and squats to modify. There are two burnout phases in this workout repeating some of the moves. Oh, and I can't forget the balance tap moves that were reminiscent of some Insanity moves (I forget the names, you know what I'm talking about). I'm off to visit my parents while they camp but I will be back later to do some Cardio!! Can't wait!
