I am curious to know how much cardio and how much strength training you all do in a week?
I am aiming for about 175 minutes of cardio and three MIS workouts a week. Does that seem reasonable? Perhaps I should mention that my goal at this time is to lose about 15 pounds of fat, while increasing my overall muscle.
It seems like several people here are doing 4, 5 or 6 days of cardio a week but whew! I don't think my body would take it and I also don't think I could afford the time. But then I started thinking that maybe my overall minutes were similar (I hope!). I just do mine in a long run (hike/snowshoe/cross-country ski) on the weekend of an hour and a half and then two 40 - 45 minute sessions during the week.
Basically, I am thinking of 3 cardios, 3 strength and one day of lying around on the couch watching soaps and eating bon bons. No, I am kidding--really, I am!! One day of rest is what I mean (I hope no one has a spycam set up in my house!).
