Yesterday I had planned on running to the gym in Vic West (only about 3km run each way) but it was way too hot out to run so I drove there and did sprints on the treadmill. I was sick last week and didn't workout much but didn't realize it would affect me the way it did.
I usually warm up with a light stretch and 4 mins of a light jog (incline on 2 and speed at 6.4), then I increase my speed to 7.2 for one minute then bump up to anywhere between 9.5-10 (incline still on 2) for 2 mins then slow it back down to about 6.0 for 1.5min. I repeat this 5 times and then walk for 4-5 minutes at the end to cool down. However yesterday I could only sprint for one minute at a time and was extremely tired and out off breath. I listened to my body and didn't push myself any harder as I was already gassed.
After 25 min of cardio, I did about 40 mins of arms (bi's and tri's) and 5 mins of abs and a long stretch. Today I feel great and will most likely fit in an evening workout after my massage :)
