Today I was a Cardio FREAK
Today I began my workout with cardio, usually I alternate out between doing it at the beginning and doing it at the end more than anything to keep it fresh. Today I hopped up on the PRECOR machine with the intention of only doing 30 minutes… I got so ingulfed in what I was doing that 30 minutes turned into just under an hour and 4.5 miles uphill on the highest hill setting with a resistance of 10. It was great, really targeting my thighs and butt, the problem areas I want to go away the most!!
I followed up with back feeling the burn even more than usual and part of my leg workout, only part though because due to the time I was in the gym, I forgot my snack along the way so I was getting weak fast!!! I didn’t want to risk injury or passing out from low blood sugar levels so when it started getting sketchy I stopped. I know my limits and it was very close to that point of breaking so it was a wise decision.
Following workout I had a small meal which made me feel a world better then finished up my work and did grocery shopping with a cart filled with more chicken and tuna.. GO FIGURE!!
Tomorrow workout is early so I am hoping to get in just as effective of a cardio workout in addition to weight training.

I’ve done that before on the cardio machines….especially during the whole michael jackson ordeal back in june. I was getting 60-90 minutes in just listening to and watching the specials on tv….LOL. Now it’s back to 30 minutes though!
