Exercise Log 5/25/11

Today is another fasting day for me.  Just like Monday it really wasn't that hard.  The most discomfort was the passing hunger pain and a slight afternoon headache.  We eat dinner early so I just broke the fast with our typical Wednesday dinner... Little Caesar's Pizza.

Even though I was fasting I still had a really good workout... 2 minute warm-up on the recline bike followed by 8 minutes of the following intervals: 15seconds of 100% effort and 45 seconds of rest
I have decided to do my HIGH intensity intervals on the bike because I think it is nearly impossible to get hurt on it!  No slipping and falling when I am pedaling like a crazy woman.  But I prefer the elliptical so after those intervals I switched to the elliptical for 22 minutes of steady state cardio followed by 3 rounds of one minute medium high intenstity intervals and one minute of low intensity.  All together it was 40 minutes of cardio followed by some good stretching.  Surprisingly I did not feel that my fasted state affected my energy level during the workout at all.
