today i did 4x the cardio i did yesterday!!
That's great! How long did you go?
It'll probably seem pathetic, but only 20 minutes. I have really bad asthma and I've never worked out so it's taking some getting used to. Within 2 minutes of walking I'm wheezing. I broke it up well today - 5 walking, 5 jogging, 10 running, 10 cooldown. Anyway, I'm pumped to keep improving that and I've been to the gym everyday this week.
Actually, I'm kind of impressed that you can run at all with asthma. Personally, if I were in your position, I would stick to walking and try to go for at least 30 minutes. Ideal would be an hour, but I don't know if you have that kind of time.
Hey Forr, Are you using a heart monitor? Keeping in the target zone is more important than almost all other metrics.
yep! and that's why i love those machines so much. they keep telling me to slow down. they help me keep pace. trying to go for a walk or a run never works out for me.
I'm really motivated for the first time in quite a few years. I'm going to alternate between a 30 minute walk and what I did today.
