I woke up and did the Elliptical machine, really pushing myself to get my heart rate up. I did about 3.3 miles at level 6 for 30 minutes. Then I tried the StairMaster for 10 minutes or so and got tired really fast, but didn't want to end it so I hopped on the bike for about 30 minutes at level 7 and worked intensely there as well.
I am going to start adding some High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) to my routines to hopefully advance my training progress. Basically that is just doing 6-7 reps of 1 minute as intense a workout as you can get and then 2 minutes recovery. That is coming to future workouts.

Some days, you can't seem to get out of bed. Others, you leap up energetic and head outside to jog, only to find that it is raining out. This blog is a journal of my running and fitness efforts. I am post gastric bypass surgery patient who is starting once again to live a free, active and happy life.
