During the active recovery weeks are you supposed to lift light weights, only do cardio or do nothing? I'm only on my first week of STS so I have a ways to go until the recovery week. Thanks for any input.
Definitely don't do weights, seems like most people will continue with activities like yoga and lighter cardio. I wish I could remember where I saw it, but I recall cardio is ok, but weights are not.
Cathe suggests cardio activities, yoga, stretching or total rest during your recovery week--NO weights. It's listed in the sticky in the STS cardio rotation suggestions.
Thanks for your input - I think I'm going to be looking forward to just some stretching and maybe light cardio, heck I'm looking forward to it now and I'm only in week 1!!!!
