How do I feel?
I feel really good today after my day of rest. I think its very important to have rest days. Sometimes we can get carried away with ourselves and we need to take a step back and realise that we could be actually ruining our progress. Its all about training smart. Make sure you rest, don't over train or you could be burning hard earned muscle. Don't train for very long sessions, remember to give it your all for short sessions this is a lot more effective.
I am also feeling good today as I found out that my tube journey which as you can imagine can be very stressful actually burns off as much calories as a workout. I got a Polar Fitness Heart monitor watch from Santa. I wear it when working out to keep track of my heart rate ensuring that I am working out in the correct fat burning zones. I decided to wear it to work today to see how much calories I burn on my tube journey to work.
My journey to work is 40 minutes door to door, it involves a lot of steps, a bit of walking. I was surprised and delighted when I got to work to find out that I had burned 183 calories.
