Up Another Notch…
So I upped my training another notch…
Yesterday, I purchase a weighted vest adding another 20 lbs for when I do some running around the indoor track. Now I admit I was a bit self concious about just wearing this thing over my tshirt. I mean.. I go to the YMCA… i felt like these people would wonder what the F*** i was thinking… i tried to cover up with a sweatshirt… the sweatshirt was too small.. i’d forgotten that i’ve grown into it quite a bit already. Luckily, I had a backup in the car, a zip up instead of a pullover… so I went ahead and ended up doing 1 mile around the track instead of the usual 2… i was DRENCHED….
Also new to the program is use of the Stairmaster… HOLY CRAP! I’m using that machine at least once a week. granted i only did 15 minutes which consisted of 5 min. on, stretch, 5 min. on, stretch, and then 5 minutes… I feel GREAT!

So you got a good workout with the weighted vest. Might have to check that out never though about adding that to the cardio. I usually just do the elliptical…havent ventured over to the treadmill something gets me about just running on that thing when i can go run around somewhere else. But with the stairclimber might have to borrow that from you and incorporate that into the routine since it seemed like you got a good sweat off of that. Keep doing your thing man…Train hard!!!
