Day 310 I now have done 2606 workouts in 2483 days as of December 19, 2014. Did a two hour workout today and burned 4137 calories by getting on the Cybex arch trainer @ six this morning and setting the program to manual. 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:
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.
By burning 4314 calories in 2 hours I exceeded my other high mark in a 2 hour workout. The highest I had done prior was 4245 on November 23,2014- Wow awesome some effort and workout

Rate this thought on a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the highest in terms of you level of agreement.
The real way to save money is to assess all that you are currently spending and analyze what purpose there is for spending that money then find the lowest cost without sacrificing any needed value on that particular good or service. All this talk about SAVINGS is hogwash if you don't need to buy. Real saving is using your money on things you need to have to live on. Example,gasoline, heat for your home, etc. not a new TV set. All that saving rhetoric is a way to convince you to want something that you really do not need.
