Evolution Two – week Three
Saturday, June 13, 2009
Hello Folks,
It is hard to believe that it is already mid June. I started this body evolution in March! Today was an exciting day for me. Besides going to the cutest show put on by elementary aged kids, I went to the thrift store and found a row machine. I have been wanting to get one for my cardio training; especially since I will be doing a quadathlon that includes kayaking. Also , I read that it is one of the best forms of cardiovascular exercise, because a lot of muscles being used during exercise. They usually cost around 200 to 1000 dollars; so it was nice to find one for 15 bucks. It works just fine; barely used.
Anyway, I decided to incorporate it into my workout routine today. I did 10 minutes rowing, 20 minutes spinning and 10 minutes stepping! Talk about cross training. I was dripping in sweat when I was done and during. I did 30 second intervals. 30 second slow, 30 seconds fast for each machine, I stayed on each machine and then switched to the next one and so on.
Overall a good workout day!
Exercise: Pyramid, cardio (row, bike, step – 40 mins.)
