Good morning,
I'd love to get some advice on what workouts to do during the recovery week. I like to do undulating rotations, for example I just finished your 4 week STS undulating rotation and am about to start a recovery week. I see a lot of people on the forum talking about doing metabolic strength workouts during the recovery week, but when I did the various P90X programs a few years ago they mainly focus on stretching and yoga. I also feel like I do need some cardio to burn some calories, but am not sure if I should be doing advanced HIIT during the recover week. So the crux of my question is, should I be incorporating:
Metabolic workouts (such as Afterburn or Athletic Training, or other endurance based workout using weights with high reps)?
HIIT or other advanced cardio workouts?
Low impact, intermediate/steady state cardio only?
Yoga/stretching only?
Thanks for the guidance! I own most of your DVDs so whatever you recommend I'm sure I've got it covered
Best,
Ginny
