Hope you have a good time!<br /><br />Maria - 30 minutes? Maybe I could have gone 30 minutes if they didn't keep jacking up the incline as well as the speed (I pictured myself flying off the back end!). I really was more afraid my knee would give out on me, though, so maybe I cut it short because of that (I had reached my target heart rate). The last time my knee went out on me, I wasn't feeling any twinges, just walking fast. Now I'm cautious. Still, I do need to up my cardio. I'll have to look into zooming on a bike (for about 10 minutes straight?) or something after my workout. I won't run, though. Don't want to risk it. Plus, I hate running!

The first time I had a stress test I had been on the machine over 30 minutes and I think the person running the test got tired of me and told me to quit. I was in my mid 40s. The second time I barely lasted 22 minutes, but that time I had a knee injury. I doubt I'd make 9 minutes today. LOL!<br /><br />Lifting weights is good, but cardio is better for our hearts.Maria Zanninihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01604862636922299273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917316172488329464.post-10119894121005392152016-05-27T06:23:07.897-04:002016-05-27T06:23:07.897-04:00Glad you got high marks on your stress test!

Should be an interesting final.<br /><br />We're going to see Lake Street Dive and Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings this weekend--hoping the weather is good!JeffOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07947660745120963286noreply@blogger.com
