Day 3: "Cardio Recovery"

So today was day 3 of insanity.  I probably didn't do so well with eating today.  My meals today went like this:
Breakfast: 1 cup of Kashi Go lean crunch cereal with almond milk and 1/2 banana.
Lunch: (We were at a kids birthday party so choices were limited) 6 baby carrots, 1 chocolate covered pretzel stick, and 2/3 cup (approx) of homemade mac and cheese.  Also about 10oz of water and about 4 oz of grape soda (to take some Tylenol for my headache).
Afternoon snack: 1/2 whole wheat pita pocket with roast beef, kale, feta cheese and tomato with 1 Kraft tomato and basil string cheese with 3/4 of a Rockstar punched drink (I was dead tired and couldn't stay awake)
Dinner: 1/2 cup of shredded pork with BBQ sauce on a regular sesame seed bun with about 2/3-1 cup of balled cantaloupe.
After workout shake:  1 cup of almond milk with 1 1/4 scoops of chocolate peanut butter protein powder, 1/2 banana, and 1/3 cup of Greek vanilla yogurt.  I blended this together and WOW...it tastes so much better like this.  Like a milkshake.  I think I'll be making it like this every day now.  A huge difference than just almond milk and the protein powder stirred.  :)


Okay so cardio recovery was the name of the DVD today.  And it IS a recovery from cardio...but its not an easy workout.  There are a lot of LONG DEEP exercises.  One was a deep squat that I did until my legs were burning and then I was supposed to hold it even longer than that (I had to straighten my legs briefly a couple times because it burned a LOT) then after my legs were burning and I was cursing I was supposed to "pulse it out" in the squat position 16 times.  Oh my GOSH my legs were so wobbly after that.  Next were long deep lunges with pulses, this was done just like the squats.  My legs are going to hurt tomorrow...I know that for sure.  
This also had quite a bit more "glute" exercises too, so I'm sure my butt will hurt as well lol.  Not much for the arms, but there were some plank type maneuvers that had to be held for a bit.  
Today wasn't so bad...except all the deep squats and lunges.  Those were the worst.  But it wasn't very sweat inducing and I really didn't need to drink much water. I drank about 24oz altogether from before, during and after the DVD.  Then I had already made my protein shake, so I just pulled that out of the fridge.  
Now lets see if I can walk tomorrow...Olivia has a bowling birthday party tomorrow..hmm
