Days 16: Video and Treadmill on a huge incline

Wednesdays and Thursdays we do our work outs in the morning before Addie has to leave for work.  We do the video together and then I run on the treadmill (she runs after work).

Day 16, back to "30 Day Shred" with Jillian Michaels.  No, I still don't like her because it's a tough workout.  Oh, but wait -  yes, I do like her because we're seeing results.  I guess I can't have it both ways.  So, it's a good "Oh Lordy, is this over?" 

"So it's a good thing"

Because my shins were feeling beat up from Day 15, I put the incline on 4.0 on the treadmill.  It starts at 0, and goes up by 0.5 increments.  I also walked either at a 3 or 4 mile per hour pace for a full half hour.   I still burned a good level of calories and worked up a good sweat.  4 miles per hour is just at the breaking point where you can barely keep up a very brisk walk and almost need to jog.

Thanks for reading and take care of  yourself!
