Did the crosstrainer for two hours at level 13, and at a higher rpm than before. I have been doing it mostly for an hour or hour and a half. I hope I can devote the time to make the two hour session standard. I usually watch a couple of TV show downloads and cruise at a 50 to 55 rpm pace. This time I had some Annie Lennox, Beyonce, and other dance remixes that kept me going at an average of 60 rpm or better. The machine said I burned 2175 calories and pedaled over 10 miles. I doubt that is accurate, but it was still a significant workout by my standards.
I also did my usual three sets of 10 bench press, three sets of 10 lat pulldowns three times-- before, at the hour mark, and at the end of the two hour crosstrainer workout. I upped the weight on the benchpress to barely achievable for me (still not going to tell ya what that paltry number is.) I left the lat pulldown weight low for now.
I started late in the evening, and wish I had done this earlier, but glad to accomplish this at all. I also wish I had been better throughout the year, and I would be at my goal by now, but I am truly, truly happy I did not completely blow off working out during the holiday season. I am in good shape to start 2010 in a much better place than I did 1 January 2009. I accept what is, and am working consistently toward what I want my weight to be by 31 December 2010.
