2/21 & 2/23 Workouts: Cardio, Chest and Back

Chest Workout - bench pressI feel like it’s been too long since I’ve written a post here. That’s probably mostly because I forgot to post my cardio workout from Sunday. (the one I swear I almost died from!) It was pretty crazy and I was so happy when I was done, but my body felt weird for a good couple of hours. I took a nap for about 30 minutes and that seemed to help but the workout itself took a lot out of me.

Sunday 2/21 Cardio Workout

  • 45 minute steady state cardio @ 5.7 mph
  • Cool down for 10 minutes @ 4 mph

Total Distance: 5.274 miles

Total Calories Burned: 619 Calories

2/23 Chest, Back & Cardio Workout

Today I started a new workout program. I did the previous workout program for 4 weeks and was ready to start something new. It always takes a little bit longer to complete a new workout the first time because it’s like starting over. I need to figure out which weight I need to use for the desired number of reps. All in all though, it didn’t take real long. I’ll still be keeping a Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday strength training split and also still do only cardio on Sunday mornings.
