Today I biked ..very far I will also get my butt on the mill to tread. What are you all doing today?

Thanks Telly. The scale is moving South again so I am really happy.

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!

You go get em BPM!!!!:clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

*Stands over BPM and frowns* "Get up SOLDIER!!! NOW DO 100 MORE MILES!"

Yes Drill Sergeant!

My goal is to be riding 100 miles a week within about 90 days.

I am riding on pavement now so my Mtn Bike isn't the greatest choice as the tires are set up for off road and have a lot of drag but that just means I am working that much harder.

:heh:

Yeah, that's awesome! That just means you would do 20 miles a day for 5 days. That's not bad! You'll hit goal in no time at that rate.

Ive been thinking about getting a bike. I guess I just dont know how to get started...gee that sounds stupid...LOL... is biking the way to go???

Greatdame,

You have a whole new fitness center in your home. That's great! You should start there. Also, to switch things up a bit, if you want to walk outside for a few miles then that would be a great change of pace. A bike works the same way. I started my weight loss with my bike. It's all in my journal.. (biking 6.5 miles, working up to 16.5miles, then 31.2 to 35 miles) Lost lots of weight doing it but you can lose just as much with exercise equipment.

What I personally like about the bike is that it is low impact and you can stay in "the zone" for a long time so you will be burning fat rather than muscle.

Plus it's great fun...at least once your in shape enough to enjoy it. :heh:

bowling for 2.5 hours

7/19/06

1.8 mile jog

Whoohoo, this morning I ran 5km in 30 minutes! I'm training for an 8km fun run in September so I need to work on both speed and distance. That's my best performance to date.

Great job!!! Good Luck on your 8km

Another 10 miles today. We (wife and I) rode the same route.

I did it much faster but it hurt more. My seat makes my entire crotch go numb and lose feeling. My butt is ok....it's the other that can't take it. My bike has a racing seat on it and it's very small and points upwards where it seems like it shouldn't.

I am going to try buying a new seat today and see how that goes.

Oh yeah...... :faint:

today:

- walk run interval 30 mins 4mph/7mph (1 min intervals)

- 180 arm exercises

- 300 ab exercises

i have been soooooo unmotivated in the last 2 weeks. i don't know what's wrong with me! i found out that i didn't lose any weight this past month, so i got to get my butt back in gear. i've cut out the drinks and made a new committment to exercise. wish me luck!
