Tiffany2288 is Aiming for 30 miles a week of cardio

Tiffany2288 · 11-13-2008, 06:05 AM

So I am aiming for 30 miles per week of cardio and aiming to hit the gym 5-6 days per week. I have been writing down my workouts but thought it would be easier to do it here and would love any feedback from others.

I started Sunday 11/9 (with the goal of 30 miles per week).

Tiffany2288 · 11-13-2008, 06:10 AM

Sunday 11/9--Weight 129 lbs

Weights - Arms & Abs

Rolling Staircase = 2.5 miles = 20 mins
Bike = 2.5 miles = 10 mins

Cardio Total 5 miles = 30 mins

(The Rolling Star Climber is a great choice of workout, as long as you don't mind climbing an endless flight of stairs. You'll get a great overall aerobic workout, and your lower-body muscles will get plenty of action-especially your calves and thighs. The new rolling stair climbers that look like mini-escalators give a tougher workout because it's harder to cheat.)

Tiffany2288 · 11-13-2008, 06:12 AM

Monday 11/10--Weight 130 lbs

Weights - Chest (superset with step ups)

Rolling Staircase = 2.5 miles = 17 mins
Running on Treadmill = 2.5 miles = 23 mins

Cardio Total = 5 miles = 40 mins

Tiffany2288 · 11-13-2008, 06:14 AM

Tuesday 11/11--Weight 129 lbs

Weights - Shoulders & Abs

Rolling Staircase = 2.5 miles = 15.50 mins
Bike = 2.5 miles = 10 mins

Cardio Total 5 miles = 25.50 mins

Tiffany2288 · 11-13-2008, 06:24 AM

Wednesday 11/12--Weight 130.5 lbs

Weights - Biceps

Rolling Staircase = 2.75 miles = 17 mins
Wave Machine = 5.75 miles = 13 mins

Cardio Total 8.5 miles = 30 mins

(Wave Machine simiulates roller blading. Cardio Wave is the only cardiovascular equipment that engages the user on three different planes of movement: extension, abduction and external rotation – simultaneously.)
