WORKOUT 1:
60 MIN ELLIPTICAL(LVL3) / 131-134 MHR / 395 CALS / 3.69 MILES
WORKOUT 2:
60 MIN ELLIPTICAL(LVL3) / 138-139 MHR / 416 CALS / 3.89 MILES
Had great workout today. Feels good to move after taking Sunday off.
I try to maintain a 75% MHR or 60% VO2 MAX. Maintaining this HR ("ALL DAY LONG" cruising speed)
and under for me is imperative for a couple of reasons:
1. I am on a high fat diet, so if I were to move faster and increase my HR I would start catabolizing lean muscle tissue.
2. The longer I stay in this HR zone; the more calories are burned from fat.
AND
3. When I have completed my cardio sessions, I want to feel like a I had a good workout.
I want to be excited about doing another workout, tomorrow. I want to feel like I have released my natural growth hormone; not a cortisol dump. Although there is a time and a place for going for "the burn," training for "failure," it is not at this stage. I do not want stress my CNS.

Day 23: Tuesday, June 18, 2K13
67 MIN ELLIPTICAL(LVL3) / 121-123 MHR / 495 CALS / 4.62 MILES
My overall aerobic conditioning is getting better. If you notice my
HR is kind of low; while my work output(calories burned) and my mileage
is increasing.
That means, I will gradually have to increase my intensity to raise my HR,
increase work output, and increase mileage, too.
That's it for today!!!!

Tuesday was an amazing night. I got to see BILLY IDOL play at
REH, in Clearwater, Florida. The show was NON-STOP energy for
2 hours. AMAZING!!!!! If you ever get the opportunity to see BILLY
IDOL, do it!!!!
Day 24: Wednesday, June 19, 2K13
I spent 3+ hours maintaining my lawn Wednesday morning.
I felt like a burnt matchstick by NOON. (NEAT calories!!!) I went
swimming later that afternoon. I wear a FITBIT everyday. I walked
3.5 miles in 3 hours AROUND my home doing my weekly landscaping.
Right now, I feel great. BAD NEWS....at 3:30AM my A/C con-
densing unit stopped working. Hopefully, it will be working
before going to bed later, tonight.
Up next.....PM cardio:
79 MIN ELLIPTICAL(LVL3) / 147-148 MHR / 659 CALS / 6.16 MILES
Today, since I was feeling guilty about not doing traditional
cardio, I up'd the intensity of my cardio session; that is why
my HR is alittle above normal.

Are you training with weights at all or just strictly cardio?
-

I am training with weights, too. It is nothing worth mentioning right now. I will probably start posting my entire workout starting in July.

It is funny, I will not do cardio without weights like most do when trying to lose weight. I do both because I want the fatloss even though it might not be profound for awhile. It is a "CATCH-22." I would like to see more now even though it is a "JOURNEY."

72 MIN ELLIPTICAL(LVL3) / 122-123 MHR / 537 CALS / 5.02MILES
I don't think I had eaten enough food prior to cardio today. I did not feel like doing it; but I did. My attention would wane; I had to activelybring my MIND'S attention back to my GOALS. My HR is where I wanted it to be, although I felt sort of weak, today. Maybe the week has caught up to me. I have one more cardio session to performthis week.
