Workout: Cardio
Equipment Used: Schwinn AirDyne
Duration: ~7 miles/~30 minutes
Driver: Alice Cooper: Da Da
Calories: unknown
Quality Level: N/A Struggled a bit due to a minor headache (HELL-O, winter pollution!) and it took quite a while for Legs to get warmed up, but I was able to work in some HIIT a bit, running from a baseline of between 44 and 47 PRPM to 57 - 61, which is a much higher jump than it sounds. I was not able to sustain it particularly long, though, but much of that was due to not being inspired musically (I like to time it to the song tempo a lot). Air was pretty solid throughout. Workout was probably slightly beyond 30 minutes, with the cool-down, but not tremendously.
Observations/Intel: Still not sweating a ton during the workouts, despite wearing a sweatshirt. I don't think Legs are up to the pounding quite yet. One of the things I like best about the Air Dyne is increasing resistance with increasing speed and when I dug in a bit tonight, I got some definite barking. Air didn't seem especially challenged, though. I also felt a bit tired going into it, so I'm guessing recovery isn't quite keeping up with the demands quite yet, either.
Still need to try to get a weigh-in somewhere...
