Recovery week sts?

[MARY1616]

Hello, I was wondering what cardio you do during your recovery week?
Do you do any light weight training or no weights at all? Thanks

I'm in a recovery week for sts right now. i've been doing all cardio, i usually walk one hour (casual) and then use the cardio from 4DS. i did alot of cardio during the meso as well, but this week of rest is killing me. i don't know why but i feel more exhausted now, i couldn't even finish the last 5 minutes of bootcamp.

Ditto to the 4DS. Typically DH and I do an hour of something each night during the recovery week. We pick workouts which are short and sweet.

Thank you! I think it is going to be a challenge not to use any weights but I will give it my best

I walked almost every day with Leslie Sansone or did an intermediate step workout. I also did yoga and pilates. I was actually glad to stay away from the weights for the week. I realized my body was feeling it and I didn't want to suffer an injury. I decided to relax and enjoy it and came back stronger and with more endurance. I found that I needed that rest/restorative week.
