Today - 10 min yoga, 45 min elliptical, 20 min walk to store and back. I was super busy so everything got cut a little short.

Today: rest day. I've been burning the candle at both ends (and kinda sorta in the middle too), so today is an off day. 5 days of exercise this week will just have to do.

If you really go at your max, you will be *exhausted* at the end of this session. And apparently the benefits last longer than regular exercise does.

For me the main benefit is: only being on a gym machine for 20 minutes, because the machines make me crazy in a way that running in the great outdoors doesn't. :)

I tried to find it but may not have been looking in the right place. Thanks for answering. :)

I did a 30 minute DVD today, Sweatin' to the Oldies. Hokey, I know, but it got my heart rate up and I was sweating, so it's all good. :p

Today - 60 min elliptical, 65 min strength training, 20 min walk to store and back

Today: 45 minutes lower body training.
