Day 009 - Cardio, cardio, cardio....

New activity or: WU 5 min. Cardio Machine: 45 min. w/ var. CD 5 min. & stretch 10 min.        Training via ActiveMail

NEW CARDIO IS GOOD CARDIO: 55 MINUTES. Why not try something new today? Most gyms now offer a regular schedule of spinning or Thaibo classes. Some even offer jumping on a trampoline, firefighter training, or boot camp. If you take a class, make sure to carefully monitor your heart rate, resting if it starts beating above your fat burning zone. Otherwise, warm up for 5 minutes, then select your cardio machine du jour. (Running, biking, swimming, or hiking the gauntlet are all excellent choices.) Spend forty-five minutes hitting it hard, changing the pace (and the incline, if possible) until you realize that you are experiencing an endorphin rush. Gradually cooldown for five minutes, and treat yourself to a luxurious 10 minute stretch.
