WOW! Step away for a weekend ...
I have started an interval training session suggested by Izzy.. At first, reading through it, I was thinking "that seems too easy".
Saturday Morning, first day with weights (full body 2 sets X 20 reps, light weight) .. then on to the interval training with the treadmill...
IT KICKED MY @SS!... I finished but man, what a difference. Instead of working 60 minutes on the eliptical, I went 45 (10 warmup, 30 interval, 5 cooldown) What a workout..
Repeated on Sunday, (without the weights, next "lift" will be Tuesday night).. and this time I took it a bit easier.. still a good workout..
A funny story... A lady I met at the gym (talked with her a couple times before) looked familiar. Started talking to her again (she was on the treadmill next to me) and it turns out she is my Dental Hygenist (sp?). I knew her boyfriend competes (bodybuilding, all natural) and started talking about training, etc.
Turns out her BF does personal training.. So I asked for his # and will try to hook up with him this week to discuss training options.. Will start a diferent thread with questions around this topic..
Thanks again to all!
