11 Days in a row

I have been in the gym 11 days in a row.  On Monday, I had my best workout yet.  The intensity was pretty high.  According to the eliptical trainer, I averaged 23 calories per minute for 30 minutes.  While I don't think that the numbers are accurate, because I use the same machine each time, I do use the calories per minute as a general test of intensity.  I did my 30 minutes this morning, but I was just too tired to do more than just go through the motions.  Still, that's better than doing nothing.

  • Ok, I'm going to preach for a second here: You're going to burn yourself out. :)





    What your doing sounds like cardio, as opposed to aerobic, which means your body needs time to recoup. You need to allow yourself time to heal.





    What's your goal? Weight loss? Muscle building? Both? Whatever it is, I highly recommend checking out Pete Sisco's SCT (static contraction training) and PFT (power factor training) books. He really breaks through all the myths ("gymlore" as he calls it) of body building and gets right down to the science of the body. I did SCT for a couple months and the results were amazing. SCT coupled with aerobics gave me the ultimate results in muscle gain and weight loss. Oh, and the bonus is, you spend a lot less time in the gym. :D

  • does sct or pft really work ?
