here I'm gong to record my ellpitical work out in case I forget that for every time I have not blogged a run, it's due to an ellpitical work out. Today's work out consisted of 60 minutes of 5 minute intervals On the 4's and 9's (every 5 minutes) I push incline to 4 (out of 12- got to be careful of the hamstring on the higher incline) and to 12-13 (out of 15) resistance trying to maintain 150-60 steps a minute. This makes me sweat bullets and cry a little. Then I'd recover for 1.5 minutes hanging onto the handles and trying to keep my feet moving at 2/7 until I can breath again. Then I'll push it back up to 3/9 for the remaining 3.5 minutes until the next interval. It's a good work out. It scares me and makes me sweat without hurting anything (except that vague pain in the hamstring that will always be there until I die). |
