Hey nasus40...
Its just really fast walking...trust me.. lol... i tried running around 7mph but i just couldnt do it for longer then 3 minutes. lol.

So far iv been doing the power walking for the past week, and now im getting use to waking up early and exercising. On really cold mornings, ill do my exercise in the afternoon or at night. This is a really big change for be, because in the past 2 years i havent done any exercise @ all.

Iv been pretty good with the diet so far... hopefully that will stay the same too...lol

Cheers!

I laughed and said you mean i can go slower??? and evern sice then I can do it at 6 MPH!! and have actually gone 4 miles that way!!! try jogging at the 6 MPH (just make sure that you wear a good bra!!

Hello Again...

Yes, you are both right... i was wrong...whaaaaa
I had no idea whether my tredmil recorded speeds in miles or Km, so i got my mate to check it out and he told me it was miles. Anyhow after having a little chat with my parents, who brought the thing... they told me it was in Km, so im very sorry to you all... i had no idea...

Cheers!

Exercise-6 days a week-Sundays off-alternating cardio and weight training.

This really sounds like a fun Ideal. I love a challenge. Good Luck all.

Count me in. I will stay OP for 30 days, I will start walking for at least a half hour a day, and I will drink 96 oz of water a day. This should be a good check for me.
