after my flu, my fitness level plummet. can't do my usual workout of at least 60 - 70 minutes running on treadmill. can do only 40 mins of running and the others i have to make do with the exercise bike which is not my fave.
656 calories can be gained back very very easily. Just go for double scoops of ben n jerries or haagan daz!
GD - try walking incline... gentle on ur knees too.
LM - haha... yupyup...
LM - yesterday I indulged until i feel so guilty.
i do not know why there is at least 1 day in a week i cannot control myself.
FG - but how much incline is a good work out? digressing, i saw some ppl at the gym, young ppl, walk speed at 2.5 and no incline, there was panting already. tsk tsk.
GD - I usually set at inclined 10 speed 6, reason is to keep my heart rate at around 120 which is optimum for fat loss (after working out with weights when carbs in body is low then this is effective)
u keep the speed at 6, vary the incline until ur heartrate is around 120+...
my khatib gym only allows 20 mins per workout. so i got to get down and re-start.
then those instructors prejudiced, there was one time, there were no ppl at the treadmill area and i was the only one. so after my workout, i re-started this tiny lady ran towards me and say i can only used it once and tell me to get down.
so i get down lor, then i went to another treadmill to use. but there was another time, when it was crowded, this boy re-started and the same instructor dun bother him. :(
GD - theres a 30min machine there! the last one! :D
