Just got back from the Gym - so busy right after work - and no, super mega-model-what-are-you-doing-in-my-little-gym woman was not there. Sadface. Today was a cardio day and after reading the awesome aerobic/anaerobic interval training thingy for weight loss, I've changed up my treadmill runs quite a bit. They are now:
Engine Startup 5 mins - Brisk walk, just to get heart up a bit. I'm at 3.8 mph here.
Rinse and Repeat for 20 mins 2 mins - slow/medium jog (for me this is 4.3 mph). Idea is to stay up near max of aerobic range. I'm 35yrs old, so for me this is 148bpm.
1 min - fast "comfy" run/jog (for me this is 7 mph). Here, you want to jump into anaerobic range for 50-60 seconds. This kick starts your heart and metabolism.
Super Awesome Cool Down 5 mins - medium walk cool down. 3.4 mph for me. If its a weekend I'll extend this to 10, 15 minutes.
So, total aerobic/anaerobic set of 30 mins of sweaty, ass kicking fun!
