Okay, I need some creative help here. I've been noticing a few little "middle age" changes and I want to put a stop to them. I think the main key is going to be watching my diet. But I also want to try the "shock my body" approach and see what happens.
One barrier is that I can't do a lot of high impact stuff, so for instance, running is not an option. And just so you know, I despise biking. I'll fight it every step of the way.
I wonder how much walking would shake things up, and what sort of intensity I'd need to reach before it is effective?
So... here's what I do right now.
M - 1 hr step cardio
T - 1 hr lower body weights
W - elliptical work with Cardio Coach
Th - off
F - 1 hr (average) upper body weights
S - 1 hr step cardio
Su - on alternate weeks, I do either a full body weight workout, or a circuit workout
All right, everyone, let's shake it up!! Thanks!
