Day 320 I now have done 2618 workouts in 2492 days as of December 30, 2014.


Day 320 I now have done 2618 workouts in 2492 days as of December 30, 2014.
Did a one hour hard cardiovascular workout today and burned 2043 calories,
by getting on the Cybex arch trainee @ five ten this afternoon and setting the program to manual.Despite a tweaked back .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.P
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
If I had continued at 2166 for another hour I would have beat the 4314 I did on 11/23 by burning 4332 in 2 hours. That was an awesome pace and hard cardiovascular workout!

Day 314 I now have done 2612 workouts in 2487 days as of December 23, 2014. Did a two hour workout today and burned 4339 calories -Last best was 4314 on 11/23/2014-
