Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for 1/26

Today was cardio and I just didn't have it in me to go balls to the wall so I just jumped on my treadmill, put on some good music and did a steady state hill climb. Speed was only 3.0 but I went from 3% to a 7% grade. My goal was to keep my HR at it's most efficient fat burning state which is 121-135 bpm. I did just that. Got pretty sweaty too.

HR STATS:
45 minutes total
5 minutes below zone
40 minutes in zone :D
6 seconds above zone
333 calories burned
2 miles traveled
 
Morning:D

Yesterday, when I got home put on me workout clothes only to find out I was sleepy :rolleyes: NO EVENING WORKOUT. BUT, I got a good night’s sleep and today I'm ready to take on the day:)

This morning, I did Legs & Glutes Xtreme, freaking OUCH! :eek: This workout was da-bomb; I was shaking when I got done:eek:. I started at 4:35 am finished at 6:12 am EEK. The workout in itself is 79 minutes, I had to hit pauses a few times and ask Cathe WTH:mad: Basically you do all the standing portion twice. I forgot how fast she moves though this workout.

I really enjoyed it. I usually do Legs & Glutes Xtreme (standing only) which is only 67 minutes:rolleyes:

Debbie: Glad you enjoyed your workout:)

Debbie, nice work. I don't think we need to push ourselves to the max every workout anyway. I guess in your latest rotation that you are doing only treadmill for cardio?? I just can't do that. I need variety:)

Teddy, I remember doing everything twice on that one and would wonder while I did it if I was asleep when I decided to do it. Once I get going though it is hard to quit. Glad that you got it all done and have that rested boost that we all like. Some of my workouts take a little longer too. If I need it to be limited to a certain period of time like today I have to try to avoid those pauses.
 
Diane Sue, is Chalean Extreme a good series to have?

Today I did chest,back and some more leg and ab work

Has anyone done Chalean's Turbo Jam Elite?

Diane: Legs Glutes X is a keeper. I would not have gotten though it lasts night you have to be mentally really for it and well rested. Your workout rocked today as always:) I’m trying to get back into my places as to say, rests days, never heard:D lol I liked it like that. Every day I was doing something. Enjoy your evening and I'll see tomorrow.
