Day 031 - Guidelines for eating meat

25-minute run at 70% MHR        Training via ActiveMail

TODAY, RUN FOR 25 MINUTES AT 70% MHR: Cut back on your fats and cholesterol, especially those in whole milk products and fatty meats. When you do eat beef, make certain it's lean. When you eat chicken, remove the skin first. Substitute fresh fish for meat at least twice a week. Remember that to take your pulse, you can either 1.) place the tip of your index finger over the inside of your wrist on the other hand (hint: feel below the thumb side), or 2.) place your middle and index finger against one of the pulse points in your neck (hint: feel for your adams apple and move to one side or the other about 1 inch and feel for your pulse). Count the number of beats. To minimize the disruption to your workout, take your pulse for 10 seconds and multiply by 6 for a quick estimate. For an easier and more accurate method of checking your heart-rate, I'd recommend you consider investing in a heart-rate monitor (HRM).
