Day 347 I now have done 2649 workouts in 2519 days as of January 26, 2015


Day 347 I now have done 2649 workouts in 2519 days as of January 26, 2015.Got to the gym to do THE workout @ six forty in the morning .After snow fall and rain that dropped 3-5 inches of snow we are now in forecast to see our biggest storm of the season. And now we are anticipating a huge blizzard predicted to be up to 30 inches of snow with 60 mile and hour winds 
Did a two hour hard cardiovascular workout  burned 4236 calories. Burned
By getting on the Cybex arch trainer 
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
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!
Did a one  hour hard cardiovascular workout today  1/11/15 and burned 2272 calories,phenomenal! Times two that is a 4544 calorie burn! Outstanding that is also a 38 calorie  burn a minute performance. That vastly exceeds any runs I have done of late.
