Day 321 I now have done 2619 workouts in 2493 days as of December 31,2014.
Did a one hour hard cardiovascular workout today and burned 1992 calories,
by getting on the Cybex arch trainee @ eight twenty this afternoon and setting the program to manual.Despite a tweaked back .still recovering from a brutal 18 hour stretch from Monday 3:30 pm to Tuesday 9:30 pm whe n I was very uncomfortable with chills and extreme light headed ness. My workout today followed my workout from 510 pm , so my rest was less than 20 hours. Then I set my weight to 400 pounds even though I weigh only 185 that provides a tough challenge because now the machine thinks I can handle more resistance.The reason I set the program to manual was because it offers a great test of stamina to keep going without any drop in resistance. I then set my time to 120 minutes. Reason I love the challenge of being able to maintain the pace. Next, the resistance was set 100% and finally the incline was set to its highest level 10 which provides a good constant steep grade. This blog is called I love to workout. One other note. Although I set the time for 120 minutes there is always a five minute cool down. At that time I then lower my resistance from 100% to 70%. So I actuallually do a 5 minute cool down every time I workout. I have noticed that most people:

So I actuallually do a 5 minute cool down every time I workout. I have noticed that most people:
A- do not set the machine to manual
B- do not set their resistance above 50%
C- probably think I am crazy
So when you add in my extra 5 minutes everyday you can see that 5 x is x minutes which equals x more hours of workouts.However,I do not include that because I am not doing what I consider a hard cardiovascular workout during those 5 minutes of cool down.
