I haven’t been on the elliptical trainer for almost two weeks. I have started my running and I never looked back. I also reduced the amount of cardio from the 90 minutes per day to just the running. Running seemed to have kept my heart rate much higher than I could ever get it up [...]
Today’s cardio was pretty much back to the grind, usual boring elliptical training twice a day. I did my 30 minutes at work and my 60 minutes at home at night. The home one was pretty tough and I kept thinking throughout the session that I’ll only do 30 minutes, 40, 45 minutes, ah the [...]
Today I did something I didn’t think I would do for a while. I ran. My most avid commenter Andrew from Andrew Is Getting Fit is probably going to love this. I was a runner when I was 13. Then I quit and things went downhill for me and the weight piled on. I have [...]
You might have wondered where yesterday’s cardio entri went but the truth is that I just didn’t do any. I felt pretty bad about it but not bad enough to actually do it. And not bad enough to keep with the regime the next day. Today I did my 30 minutes at work but then [...]
I did do my lunchtime cardio just fine today. But I have skipped my evening one. We’re supposed to get some massive cold front tomorrow and I thought it was coming tonight so I spent the evening cleaning the garage to be able to park both our cars inside, I’m just not a big fan [...]
Today was the first time I have actually managed to put in two cardio sessions in one day since 12/23/09. I’ve been on vacation and yesterday I have skipped the evening one for a movie. I did two pretty decent cario sessions and the both felt fine. I was watching Biggest Loser while doing the [...]
Today was the first day that I was back at work and I did my lunch time 30 minute cardio session. I just remembered how much more I like the Precor machine at work compared to the Sole that I use at home. Then again it cost 4x as much so it makes sense that [...]

Today I watched Journey To The Center Of The Earth while doing cardio. It was a crappy movie and my cardio wasn’t all that great either. I felt weak and I wanted to quit about 25 minutes into it. But I kept going and said to myself “I’ll do 45″ then at 45 minutes I [...]
I had an awesome cardio session today. My average heart rate was 149. I haven’t had a cardio session with this high of an average heart rate since 11/03/09 when I hit 156. But back then I weighed 231 lbs and my resting heart rate was probably 20 beats higher than now. I was watching [...]
