Might have pushed that inner Ninja a little too far yesterday, as today I had to take a step back, knees feel somewhat jelly like today and just not feeling very secure today while on the bike and treadmill.
I still did a good 12.5kms on the bike at 10 tension, and power walked 2.5kms on the treadmill at 6kms an hour.
So a good 70mins Cardio. It just didn't feel strong like my other workouts this week.
I really hope once I drop a further 20kgs that the knee strength will come back. I think I have just punished them a little too much by having to carry an extra 30kgs for the last 20 years.
I am taking a glucosamine and chondroitin supplement daily, as well as a multivitamin. And I am also doing some good strength training exercises at the gym.
I guess the area I am really WINNING in is the food. I am completely NINJA in my dedication to healthy eating. Not one small glitch in 13 weeks.
Pulled into get gas tonight and was faced with that annoying confectionery display at the counter, and was not even remotely tempted. I now realise that anything I put in....means I have to work harder at the gym....and that is a pretty good motivator to behave!
Wow, sounds like you have such an awesome attitude. And yeah, I would keep to low impact exercise if you can. I don't think my joints and stuff could stand up to the high impact stuff. You are doing great!
