I am all-or-...PIC- you and SNG spotted my weakness. I am all-or-none where most things are concerned, and so it's strange to consider a 3 mile ride each way as my primary exercise. But, with life as it is right now, it's better than the alternative-- of nothing! SNG says "Just think of it as transportation. Don't call it a worksout. That way you won't feel bad that it's only 20 minutes." He was right, and I've been feeling GREAT.<br /><br />Dad- Pretty much any hill entails going ALL OUT when you're pulling Leslie Cochran's shopping cart (with e-baby and Jambuca inside).

It's only 3 miles, it's not a REAL workout, so why bother? All or nothing, right? <br /><br />I think taking the bike is a good option. Or you can alternate the bike and jogging just to mix it up and work different muscles, which is also supposed to help speed up weight loss.

TO make it more effective, try to go REALLY HARD on a couple of short hills (about 30 second bursts as hard as you can go). For background Google "Tabata protocol" or "Tabata training.<br /><br />Love, DODAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17837402849606327100noreply@blogger.com
