Yesterday...

After what was a pretty dreadful day yesterday, I picked myself up again and figured out what my next step was.
I have a friend that is going to Orange Theory Fitness and she is loving it, but my problem is I make so many excuses not to go to that sort of thing, even if I have paid for it, that it is not worth going. I also do not take construction criticism well when it comes to my form of how the instructor wants an exercise done versus how I am doing it to compensate for the amount of pain that plagues my person when doing anything. That is just the way it is.

So, I bought myself a heart rate monitor and downloaded Polar Beat (app) and Polar flow which is for your computer. Then I jumped on the treadmill last night and the bike this morning. This way it can track what I am doing in each heart rate zone. Orange Theory is based on a system of spending the most time in zone 4, anaerobic zone, so I decided that would be what I would try and do, but on my own.

I think the total combined on these two works outs was that Z4 was 10%, Z3 was 46%, Z2 was 34%, Z1 10%.
All in all not too bad, and it gives me something to achieve. I have yet to determine if the treadmill will be on my to do list this evening, I think it depends on how close to 10,000 steps I get.
