Week #3 Tuesday exercise 45 min (4.4 km)

admin — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 00:23:40 +0000

What to do when you are 15 minutes into exercise and the only thing you have in mind is how to step down and stop running. This happened to me today. I had warmed up, began running and I didn’t feel like doing it … at all. So after 15 minutes I became aware that this will not be my running day and if I will continue to exercise I have to do something. So I have decreased the speed from 9 kmh to 6.5 kmh and increased the incline from 0 to 10-12%. After that I was able to do another 25 minutes of incline walking!

In whole I have walked/ran 45 minutes, 4.4 km and burned 460 calories.

The new season of treadmill running has started for me. The whole summer I was exercising outside and did only 1-2 exercises on the treadmill. So now, with the temperatures a bit lower I have started with indoor training. Let’s start the treadmill!

The season opener was a nice interval training with low speed (max7.2 kmh or 4.5 mph) and incline up to 8%.

Burned calories: 270.

admin — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 08:19:12 +0000

This was a great week. I am proud of myself and I hope that you had a successful week too. Nothing feels better that to look back and feel good about your achievements. I remember back in the week #12 I had a similar stats, but I felt much more tired. I hope I will manage to continue with this kind of exercise - maybe more running and not incline walking. I’ll try to make 5-6 exercises a week, each about 60 minutes.

Well the stats for the week #30 are: 385 minutes (6h and 25 min), 40,5 km and 4173 burned calories - hmm thats actually one pound of fat

Week #30 Sunday exercise 60 min (6.5 km)

admin — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 08:05:44 +0000

Sunday is a great day for exercise . You can rest the whole day and when the time for exercise comes, you have to make yourself to do it lol Just like nay other day.

So this Sunday I did:

30 min 8% incline walking
5 min cool down
5 min running at 9 km/h
15 min 8% incline walking
5 min cool down

Stats: 6.5 km in 60 minutes, 638 calories burned. I could do more running but it was still a great exercise.

Week #30 Saturday exercise 60 min (7.2 km)

admin — Sun, 31 May 2009 13:44:31 +0000

This time I wanted to do an interval exercise. And planned for some incline walking (6-12%) and running (at 9 km/h and 0 incline). It went pretty good. I was not even tired at the end.

5 min warm up
10 min run
10 min incline walk
10 min run
10 min incline walk
15 min cool down

The stats: 7.2 km, 60 min, 545 cal.

I’m planning another exercise for Sunday and hopefully this Week #30 will improve the stats after lazy previous weeks.

Week #30 Friday night exercise 70 min (7 km)

admin — Sun, 31 May 2009 13:39:21 +0000

Friday night on the treadmill - how boring is that? Not at all if the TV is the other option. The movies on TV were not watchable and I have decided to do a long, hard exercise accompanied by Bon Jovi concert from Times Square 2002. So this hign energy gig took me through:

60 min incline walking at 6.2 km/h and
10 min cool down at 0 incline and 5.5 km/h

My legs were burning but I can feel them even now how hard they are.

Here are the stats: 70 min, 7 km and 908 burned calories.

Week #30 Friday exercise 45 min (5 km)

admin — Fri, 29 May 2009 08:25:59 +0000

Yesterday I was too tired to do my exercise and I have decided to rather go to sleep and rest my body and mind. So I planned to exercise in the morning. Getting up at 7 a.m. and getting on the treadmill required a little bit of strong will. But I made it and worked out for 45 minutes:

15 minutes of warming up by incline walking
15 minutes of running at 8.k km/h and no incline
10 minutes of incline walking and
5 minutes to cool down

Altogether I have burned 429 calories and walked/ran 5 km.

Maybe I will do another exercise in the evening. By the way I still feel sleepy … and a bit tired … I would like to go bacy to bed and not behind laptop. But work needs to be done.

I have also started to weigh myself in the mornings - kind of keeping control on my weight.

Week #30 Wednesday exercise 60 min (6 km)

admin — Wed, 27 May 2009 21:05:21 +0000

This was a regular exercise … mostly incline walking. 60 minutes of fun while watching some Lick Library videos (tutorials for playing guitar).

Week #30 Tuesday exercise 90 min (8.8km)

admin — Wed, 27 May 2009 14:29:46 +0000

This was an incline walking exercise! most of the time between 6 and 12% incline and look at the burned calories! 987 calories gone in just 90 minutes. A hell of a exercise. I was walking at approx. 6km/h and lowered/raized incline as needed.

The stats: 90 minutes, 987 calories and 8.8 km.

Summary of week #29 (260min/27.4km/2359cal)

Week #29 Friday exercise 30 min (3.9km)

admin — Wed, 27 May 2009 14:23:02 +0000

This was my morning exercise after a long time. I felt I have accomplished something before I went to work … well actually I was working from home that day. Nevertheless I had in mind a 60 minute workout but it’s so hard to wake up in the morning if you have gone to bed at 1 or 2 a.m.

The stats: 30 minutes, 3.9 km and 233 calories burned.

Week #29 Thursday exercise 90 min (9.1km)

admin — Wed, 27 May 2009 14:20:06 +0000

I was thinking about incline and have added it. So this exercise was a little harder but much more calories were burned. In 90 minutes I have walked/ran 9.1 km and burned 874 calories. Let’s keep on going …

Week #29 Wednesday exercise 100 min (10.2km)

admin — Wed, 27 May 2009 14:17:37 +0000

This is the real deal! 100 minutes of fast heart beats and some great music on the screen. Bon Jovi saved my exercise. I love their concerts - especially if they were filmed in New Jersey!

So 10,2 km of distance and 852 burned calories. It seems I could use some more incline.

Week #29 Monday exercise 40 min (4.2km)

admin — Wed, 27 May 2009 14:14:11 +0000

A new week and a new run. 4.2 km in 40 minutes and 400 calories burned. As I now remember my fastest 5 km run this exercise seems line a snail race. But still it was effective. Looking forward to more!

admin — Wed, 27 May 2009 14:11:57 +0000

Summary of week #26 (70min/8.6km/521 cal) & #27

Next week I was sick so the week #27 is marked with zero.

A week in Paris

admin — Tue, 26 May 2009 14:24:39 +0000

Well I need to update this blog again and start to write my exercises down reguraly. I usually run in the evening and I write all the data (calories burned, the distance and time) on one post-it note. But now it has been over a month and I have a pile of post-it notes and no blog entries. I’ll try to catch up.

In this last month I have also been on vacation in Paris - beautiful city - and I got sick again - the second I got back to work! So now I’m back in shape doing mostly incline walking and riding a mountain bike.

I’ll keep you posted and I promise I’ll put online some of the latest exercises.

Happy running!
