Featherweights Need to Exercise too! May 14 - May 20
If cardio will help with this unsightly little blob that hangs between my pants and shirts ... then increasing cardio is for me this week.

Oh I've got that too. I'll never have that nice flat expanse of tight tummy. If you cut me in slices, they'd be round. What I'm talking about is an all'round mushrooming over a midrise pant. You seriously can grab like a tube of sausage all the way around.
Under there, I have not bad abs for an old girl. Under that! I have a rudimentary pair of calipers that say it's 12 mm thick. I'd much rather it was 8 or 9. It'd be a lot easier to hold it in. |
Armed with my heart rate monitor (because I know intensity is a challenge for me) I set off in a different direction this morning. I tried to keep my rate up. If it fell, I'd jog a bit to bump it back up. It felt good and I was out for 10 or 15 minutes longer than usual.
I should be able to do that 5 days this week. |
Monday -- 30 min bike ride AM, UBWO AM. 1hr bike ride PM
Tuesday -- Nothing I work 7am to 5pm, unless it's really nice out then I'll go biking, but it's pouring rain right now :( |
Jogging is supposed to be the best way to burn belly fat, according to Prevention magazine. I know when I was an avid runner, and at my lowest post-pregnancy weight a few years ago, I had a pretty flat set of abs. (Well, as flat as possible with all the hangy, gross, stretched-out skin I have down there, that only a tummy tuck will get rid of.) I have a total donut around there now. Not so hot, what with low-rise jeans being all the rage.
