    I'd like to do this. I didn't do much this week because I hurt my back, but on 2/4 I did 35 minutes on the treadmill and burned 300 calories. I will check back in after I am done today.:smile:

    Okay, today I did another 4 miles and 400 calories. Did any of you see the post yesterday about the intervals? Ahhh...I found it. See below. Anyway, I tried it this morning. It says that you are supposed to burn more calories than jogging alone. I burned MAYBE 20 more according to my treadmill. My HRM is a piece of crap that doesn't register when I'm on my treadmill for some reason. Sooo..I don't know if I actually burned more or not. The treadmill isn't so reliable. I just guesstimate usually. Anyway...It was kind of fun to change it up but I'm not sure if anyone else used a HRM and tried it. I'm rambling. How'd you guys do today? I'm going to work out tomorrow, too, to make up for Weds. :smile:
