THE ELLIPTICAL IS MY BITCH

I did it!

I still can't believe it but it was all with the help of my friends.

I signed up for this morning's mountain class* on the elliptical.  Normally, I would never do this as mountain is way too difficult and you need to stay on the same piece of equipment for an hour.  But, I was talked into it by being told, "when you can't go any longer, jump on something else.  They won't care."

All of my friends were cranking it out so I just stayed on that damn elliptical even though my calves were cramping and my toes were going numb.

I did 60 minutes, 45 seconds.

YEA!!!!!

*mountain class on Saturday is for two hours

You sign up for a machine and you stay on that machine for the first hour.

5 minutes warm up

2 minutes at base

You must increase one level every 2 minutes until you get to level 12. (speed or incline)

3 minutes at level 12

2 minutes at level 8

2 minutes at level 4

Increase one level every 90 seconds for 10 levels

Then you go up and down with some sprints on the machine

20 minutes of upper body weights with cardo in between

20 minutes of cardio running around different parts of the gym

20 minutes of cardio on a different machine than you were on
