So if you didn't know last week the doctor gave me permission to do whatever I want. This week we decided to start going to the gym. Monday was great I ran on the eliptical for 50 min and I was alright. Tonight, however, I tried a different eliptical machine than mondays. I was all excited cause I had my nike watch and heart rate monitor; I was set. So I jump on the eliptical and it says my target heart rate should be 158 and don't you worry my heart rate on the easiest setting, no incline, no resistance was at 180.... so I got off and walked on a treadmill... yes that is right
walked and was able to keep my heart rate at 158. Just shows how out of shape I am. Walking for me is considered a hardcore cardio workout.
