30 minutes treadmill this morning at the gym; first time ever I used the incline feature; 15 minutes recumbent bike with resistance set at 2; tried the elliptical but it hurts my knees, so I must not be using it right.

Here is something I found April on elliptical's that might help: http://www.cherylrichardson.com/cgi-bin/qam/95.shtml


Today I got in 60min on the elliptical and 35 min weight training. Day is still young, will get cleaning in and hopefully a walk to the grocery stores with my son's later.

Thanks, Heather, for that link. I tried it again this morning on more resistance and it was better. So, this morning it was 25 minutes on the treadmill at 2.5 incline at 3.5mph, 10 minutes on elliptical, and 10 minutes on recumbent bike. I'm going to the gym this weekend and will ask for help on how to use the elliptical properly. There aren't people around at 5:45am to help me.

april, great to see that you're able to get back to the gym!! way to go! does the elliptical machine you're using have movable arms or is it the kind where you just place your hands on the stationary handles/grips? also, does the incline of the machine change, or is it stationary? (i find the elliptical machine uncomfortable - not in a good way - if the incline is set too high.)

anyhoo ... mon: had a killer workout - ran 7.0 miles in about 66 mins (really pushed my speed and bumped up the incline slightly) and lifted tricep muscles. felt really stong.

I'll be off the computer until a little after July. I'm off to Korea and the Philippines to visit my brother and his family JUST ME AND MY DAD June 9 - June 30. I'm going to miss my husband and two boys so bad! I'm already binge eating today just thinking about it! Pray for me that I don't gain 50 pounds in 3 weeks on my vacation.
