Day 30: Treadmill, Movie, and 30 Day Shred Video


Because of my current work schedule, we switch from evenings to morning workouts on Wednesday.  So this morning, when the alarm went off (in the middle of a REM cycle for me....groggy), we forced ourselves to move.  I think we woke up part-way into the video.

First was back to the 30 Day Shred video by Jillian Michaels.  I am still modifying exercises that might cause me injury because of previous issues.  Let me assure you: you work your butt off.

Then I ran on the treadmill and watched the movie "XXX" (No, the PG-13 rated action movie starring Vin Disel, nothing HR inappropriate).

It really does make it easier to run.  I did a full half hour, mostly at 5 mph, and include 1.0 (starts at 0.0 on the treadmill).  It felt good to get that in.  I'm not sure precisely how much calories are burned in an hour of exercise, but the treadmill estimated over 300 in a half hour at that rate and incline.

Thanks for reading and take care of yourself!
