My Weight Loss

I don’t know about you but I am ready to shed this tire wrapped around my waist. I started this workout routine that I did a couple of years ago. I had great success then so I thought I'd give it a try again. It is called P.A.C.E (Progressively Accelerating Cardiopulmonary Exertion) It is a system of building strength in your heart and lungs. It is short burst of intense activity followed by recovery done in just under 10 minutes. I have worked out about 4 days in the last 7 days for only 8 minutes each day and have lost a pound. That is not too bad considering that I worked out a total of 32 minutes within 7 days.  My current weight is 132 lbs. My goal is to lose 12 lbs by July. I plan on updating my progress so stay tuned. ;-)

My routine:

15 sec. Jumping jacks
15 sec. Duck in a forward motion
15 sec. Shuffle
15 sec. Squat, thrust, and up/jump
15 sec. Punching
15 sec. Dirt diggers
Total 1 minute and 30 seconds. After I rest and my heart rate comes back down I start my bike routine.
On the bike.
30 sec. warm up
30 sec. Increase pace
1 min. Decrease pace but do not stop
1 min. Increase pace and resistance
1 min. Decrease pace

1 min. Increase pace and resistance but toward the end of the minute I give it all I got.
Total 5 minutes

I have not timed it but for about 2-3 minutes I do some resistance exercises.

This may not seem like much of a workout to most of you but believe it or not, when done right it works. When I first started P.A.C.E I was dropping so many inches that I stopped working out. My clothes were beginning to fit me too big and that was not good considering that about a month prior to that I purchased some new clothes that I did not want to get lost in. For those of you who decide that this may be for you let me know how it works out.
