Wednesday Workout? Check.

Today was my Wednesday workout. I did it in my new zones, that ZTT gave me yesterday and I completely forgot to put in the blog post. I will do that now. I found out DAYS later that I wasn't supposed to eat for 3 hours before the test (I ate 15 minutes before) or do vigorous exercise the day before (I did). So I told Zak that my zones were clearly 20 beats higher than they should be (::grin::). He disagreed with the 20 beats, but did lower my zones in in three weeks he may give me a free retest. New interim zones:

Zone 1: 135 - 145
Zone 2: 146 - 160
Zone 3: 161 - 170
Zone 4: 170 - 180
Zone 5: 180 - 190

So today I did {4 min zone 1, 2 min zone 2} 8 times. The whole time I was at an incline of 2.0 (except at the beginning to get my HR up). The zone 1 was walking at 3.5 mph--the zone 2 was running at 4.5 mph. I pushed it to 5.5 mph the last 2 minutes for fun. Finish strong!

My Stats:

Calories Burned: 491 (Treadmill)/454 (HR Monitor)
Total Miles: 3.54
Total Time: 56:44 (including cool down)
Ending Heart Rate: 121

Next workout tomorrow: lift and cardio (35 min all zone 1)!
