Even though the beginning of the month hasn't started as of yet, I decided to work towards my new monthly goals starting today. New goals should always be started on a Monday in my book! As previously discussed I am working to increase my cardio goals so that I will now be doing my same routine but incorporating a minimum of 45 minutes of cardio in my daily work out. Previously I had always included cardio but hardly went over 30 minutes in a given session. I am being advised that the StairMaster or interval training might be more beneficial. What that means for me is when I run on the treadmill, I will do intervals. The plan is to run around 6.0 for 4 min and work up to 1 minute and a half of sprinting, then run again for 4 min until my 45 min of cardio has been completed. I think another excellent place to get interval training in is in spin class. I would be getting an hour of this type of cardio in as well if I opt for a spin class every now and then. It helps to do classes like that because you have the support of people, loud music, and a fun instructor that goes by the name of Steve.
