Countdown: 49 Days
It amazes me how when I started my cardio how out of shape I was. My first session on the treadmill the easiest part was my warm up at 3 mph walking lol... I was dying on my first interval when I went up to 5mph. I checked my heart beat and I already was at over 150 bpms, I wanted to QUIT! Just remember, everyone starts somewhere and as I keep reading, it's about progress, not perfection. I did quite a few intervals of 3445, where 4's are a slow jog. As the sessions went by I would extend my minute to the next level of speed eventually working my way up on speed and effort.
This mornings session felt good, I ran like the wind lol.. I was excited that my 4 intervals consisted of mph of:
3,4(30secs),5(90sec)6
3,4(30secs),5(90sec)6
3456
34556
I always measure my BPM's on the 3's to make sure I'm where I need to be for my age and bpms. My goal here is to be able to actually remove the 4's from the intervals :) That would be most excellent :)
