NSV-Trotting on the Treadmill
I have been living out of suitcases for work for about the last 8 weeks. Still hanging in there with keeping on track as best I can. Been living pretty much on eggs, beef jerky protein drinks and Quest bars.
I checked into the hotel where i am staying this week and once I was settled I got dressed and went down to the fitness center.
First off, their scale had me at 214lbs. I'm skeptical but I'll take it. I will weigh myself dressed for work tomorrow morning and see what my weight is.
I used the treadmill and jogged for a minute at a time for seven cycles during a 30 minute walk. My average walk speed was about 3.7 mph at an incline level of 6. My jogging speed was about 4.7 with an incline of 4. Pre-op I couldn't even walk at 3mph for any length of time. I then used the recumbant bike for a 15 minute ride. Not an overly robust workout by any means but I was pretty proud of myself about the jogging thing.
Take Care!
