Morning Cardio

Alright so as I mentioned before this week I am working out at 7:30am since I work 9-5.

Today I had cardio and decided that I would run on the treadmill. Now again I got up, I did not have breakfast and just went for it. Yesterday it was not big deal, but since today I was working even harder because it is non-stop moving, I felt it. I was slowly increasing my speed, I went to 8K/hr and by the time I reached 15min, I was starting to have some issues, I was starting to weekend a bit and to top it off I told the machine to give me 45min which in turn would give me 45min + 5min cool down a total of 50min and last time I was there for 40 + 5min cool down. Because I wanted to last, I brought the speed back down to a fast walk, I fast walked for 1min and I felt much better then I upped it to 5.5K and I was jogging and left it there. I was able to complete the entire time with no issues.

I was there a bit longer so I burnt more calories but traveled less. I burnt 478 calories and only traveled 3.78K.

Now my protein is Whey Protein and only contains 120cal, and I needed to replenish some more, I picked up a couple of chocolate covered almonds to get the extra bit of sugar, to make sure I lasted all day at work walking around, carrying PCs and what not.

The run was pretty awesome, I was able to workup one heck of a sweat, well imagine being on a treadmill for 50min LOL it’s boring as hell, and yet again I totally forgot to bring my media player, so I had to try and keep my mind occupied, at times I would forget I was even jogging LOL and I would look and 6min would have passed, that was cool.

Well tomorrow I have Shoulders & Arms. Now after work I have to head out and I have a 1hr drive one way and another back, so I am not sure when I will be home and if I will have time to write an update.

Thank you for your time:

Mike
