October 3, 2007

This month I'm doing something different. I'm focussing on one area of my body for improvement: my gut. I'm currently 48" at my belly button. I'd obviously like to see that number be much lower.

To accomplish this, I've not only enlisted friends (check out the October is Lose Your Gut Month on Facebook), but I'm also changing my workouts. I'm going to be going EVERY DAY, but alternating between pure cardio workouts and cross training.

Today was my first cardio day. I did 10 1:1's on the bike, and tried to maintain over 160 RPM's on the 1's. After that I did some experimenting on the treadmill. I did about 3 or 4 minutes at 6 MPH, then did 4 rounds of 30 second intervals at 8 MPH. It was a great cardio workout, and gave me some great ideas for how to structure my workouts for the rest of the month.
