ianders1 Posted May 9, 2004 Posted May 9, 2004 5 mins Gradual Warmup -- 5-8 mins Work Zone (75-85% Max HR) -- 5 min Cooldown I've been using this the last several weeks with really good results. The bodyfat is coming off, I'm feeling more fit, endurance and VO2Max are increasing, and my (resting) heartrate is getting lower. Most importantly, it hasn't affected my resistance training: Concurrent Resistance Training and Aerobic Training By Dr. Richard Winett Quote "Keep away from small people who try to belittle your ambitions.

Davekline Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Interesting article. Do you use one of those wireless heart monitors durring your aerobic workout? It seems like one of those wristwatch/chest-strap combinations would make monitoring your heartrate durring exercise an easier task. Quote Life without iron would be a very weak alloy.
ianders1 Posted May 14, 2004 Author Posted May 14, 2004 I've just been using those heart rate monitors that are built into the treadmills, bikes, etc. Once you've done the workout 2 or 3 times, you can gauge your level without monitoring your heartrate, though. You just slowly build up to the work phase, and once there, you work just below the point of getting out of breath. Quote "Keep away from small people who try to belittle your ambitions.
