Went out for my 2nd walking/jogging interval session thismoring, im following a program that should get me up to running a 5k road race. The 1st 2 sessions were as follows, 5 min brisk walk (warm up), 1 min jog, 2min walk (repeated 6 times) and then a 10 min walk to cool down. (today I had to drop something to my wife at work so did the intervals on the way there and then walked home which is a 3mile round trip) when I get home I do 2 sets of 10 pushups (off the kitchen work top as I am building up to full pushups) and 2 sets of 10 full range squats (bum to calfs) again holding on to the kitchen work top but just to keep my balance
Should probably add that the running program I am following is taken from http://www.bupa.co.uk/running/training/training-programmes/beginner-5km/ once I have completed this program I am aiming to go onto the 1/2 marathon program.
The pushups and squats are taken from a book called convict conditioning which tells you how to build strength and muscle using nothing but bodyweight excersises, I am following the progression that the book outlines and will be adding more excersises as my fitness improves
