Cardio Machine Hopping
Posted by Sandra Sims on 11 May 2006 | Tagged as: Exercise
I drug my self back to the gym today. Honestly I really was not too enthusiastic about working out, but since I’d set a goal of 4 workouts this week I had to go today to meet that goal.
When I need a little variety I like to hop from one cardio machine to another. It keeps it interesting. The bikes are not my favorite though so I usually skip those. Sometimes I’ll do 15 mins on the treadmill, then 15 on the eliptical trainer, then go back and forth til I hit my desired time goal. Here’s what I did today:
20 Min Treadmill: 3.0-3.5 MPH
10 Min Eliptical: 5.5-6.0 MPH (high intensity)
15 Min Treadmill: 4.0 MPH
5 Min Treadmill: 3.0 MPH (cooldown)
