The Do You Work Out Zone

Ok so I overslept today and missed my circuit training routine But to make up for it I did a 45 minute interval run on the treadmill; 8 minute warm up,then alternating 3 minutes at 5.7 mph with 2 minutes at 7 mph.repeat 6 times,then cool down about five minutes walking. I am not up to par yet with the hamstring so by the time I was done I wanted to ! But I didn't.Now it's off to classes.Today is my day off work,but it's raining so no biking,mebbe an evening swim. Happy Tuesday everyone!! Shad

I managed to get the new Ab Circle Pro out of the box and assembled yesterday - I am glad that it was less work than assembling the elliptical.

With the current weight loss at 64.7lbs since Aug 1, its certainly time to ramp up the activity level!

Any one have the ab circle thingy? Like it? Love it? Hate it?

Christie,a big congrats and a for your weight loss and fitness journey so far! YOU RAWK! Keep on keepin' on sis! Tonight I went for a swim work out and wound up doing 3.1 miles.It feels good to just zone out and concentrate on nothing but breathing and technique.It also keeps me from throwing algebra books into the street as they blaze awayHave a great evening everyone!

WOOT! Just finished my last day of a 3 week circuit training routine. I HATE circuit training but it was a good way to boost muscular endurance and prove to myself I could maintain 7 mph on a treadmill without sliding off the end!! I will start a strength building routine next week,probably a push/pull routine 3xweekly.It's also time to ramp up the outdoor running! Happy Thursday everyone! Shad

Does the 87000 trips I have had to make to the back of our facility today (50K+ sq ft) count as working out?

I need a scooter, I think or at the very least, one of these:
