As I said yesterday, Mr. Training, some bloke at the gym, who said that the best way to improve fitness was to alternate running for one minute then walking for a minute, was going to have his theory busted. Today's results prove that my method is better.
Treadmill.
Time 51.05 mins
Cals 365
Dist 4.24 km
AvSp 4.99 kph
AvHr 119 Bpm
It was much more enjoyable workout today, despite having a sore throat (Thanks for sharing that Nobby). Today I set the treadmill to manual and concentrated on keeping my HR over 120Bpm. I took the speed up to 6kph until peaking at 140+Bpm then reduced the speed to 3kph until HR recovered to about 113-114Bpm. I continued this until I had completed 45 mins. The results speak for themselves. Cals burned, average speed, total distance and average heart rate are all better than yesterday. I am not quite a Haile Gebrselassie yet but to improve by small steps every day is all that I am aiming for. Slowly slowly catchy monkey as they say. I don't know who THEY are, but they say it ok. I didn't have time to go in the sauna after as the session was ending, so I drove to my local Sainsburys and bought some cooked chicken on a skewer and a protein shake. I have just consumed them and am at present relaxing in Starbucks coffee shop with a double espresso whilst I compose this missive. I hope that y'all are having as nice a day as me. Until tomorrow then. Good wishes and good-bye.
