IDGOMB Monday

Worked chest and triceps with moderate weights, walked 1 1/2 miles on the treadmill.


NEXT!!!

Did my 30 minute core workout this morning and 20 miles of interval cycling (HIIT) tonight. Needed to work off my big Indian food lunch so mission accomplished,

Sounds like you're doin' the job, my man.

Just for terminology's sake HIIT is usually 8 reps each so intense that it's impossible to keep the  level of intensity longer than 30 seconds. Rest in between is generally 20-120 seconds. With an 8 minute warmup it's generally over in 20 minutes. This formula is said to keep the metabolism burning for several hours for a total calorie burn of over 600 and provide a major growth hormone ***********

Keep the Faith,

Ya, I'm probably using the wrong terminology but my "HIIT" is based upon Chris Carmichael's cycling interval routines which take an hour. The intervals are 2-3 minutes high intensity climbing(anarobic), 1 or 2 minute recovery then 5 minutes high RPM spinning then do it all again.

He's got a bunch of different routines but they're all used to build muscle as well as blow up your lungs. Whatever the objective, all I know is they are tough as hell and certainly get me out of my comfort zone.
