I'm finally over my week and a half battle with my sinuses so I'm back on hitting the weight training and cardio full speed today. Even though I've had to miss several workouts over the last 2 weeks, I've continued eating consistently healthy and working out as I felt up to it, my results were STILL positive. Here they are...
I'm now down to 15.6% body fat and have lost 14 lbs total. I can't say enough about the Body for Life program and how well it works if you just follow the plan. WOW! 5 more percent down and I should be able to start seeing abs under there!
Today's workout is upper body and I plan on hitting the weight hard tonight. I feel like I have some making up to do since missing so many workouts lately, but I know today is a new day and I'll be back on track as far as exercise goes now.
Some may wonder what type of cardio I'm doing so I'll give you a layout of how it normally goes step by step. I use a treadmill as my cardio equipment. My cardio is what's referred to as High Intensity Interval Training or HIIT. For the first 2 mins, I'm walking at 3.0 mph. Then I start my intervals. 1 minute at 6.5 mph, then 30 seconds back at 3.0 mph. Next min at 7.0 mph, then 30 seconds at 3.0 mph. I continue this cycle 6 more times, then the last min, I run at 8.0 mph for a min, then I'm done. Cool off for a couple of mins back at 3.0 mph and my HIIT is complete. Total time is about 15 mins. Good stuff!
Wow, Mike. That's impressive! Is this a plan with specific supplements, or just a balanced diet/exercise plan?
