Well today was my last day of my great little vacation and it was fun while it lasted. So I ended it with another pretty good workout. I changed it up a bit on the elliptical though and as must of you are probably aware that the elliptical has many different settings. Today I used the Fat burning zone setting. It really didn’t seem to be too strenuous so I didn’t care for it. I did stay in the zone though and kept my heart rate at 112-120. That is my fat burning zone and my cardio zone is a bit harder and that is at 138-145. Keeping my HR at that point is hard and it’s probably something I should try to do one of these days. I do like a good challenge
Now the one big draw back to going back to work is that my blogging suffers a bit, but not my workouts. I will do my best to visit your blogs but you’ll have to forgive me if I don’t comment as much. I will be back here on Sunday since it is a day off from my workouts and I’ll have a bit more time to spend on this computer.
So this is what I accomplished bright and early this morning:
- Elliptical@ 65 minutes, 4.25 miles, Fat burning zone with heart rate 112-122.
- Treadmill@ 20minutes,1.10 mile, Incline of 5-12%, various speeds, Average speed of 3.32 mph ans 18:04/mile.
I did up the intensity a bit on the treadmill and hope to maybe even start doing a slow jog on it. Yes, I know it’s against doctors orders, but I do know my body and my limit. So why not!
I guess that’s all for now. Hope everyone has a nice healthy, safe and active day. Just remember any form of exercise is good for you. Staying active is the key to a healthy and long life.
Catch you all later.. Time for me to chill out a bit and make my nice green smoothie. Yummy!!!
