    Nice Megan, and thank you for the clarification re pw vs. jog. I worked it hard early this morning for 30 min because it's going to be a hot day.

    I just did a mild walk today. Will go harder tomorrow. I feel like I’m fighting a migraine so didn’t want to push it. So I’m switching my rest day. I think I pushed it too hard yesterday during my run. Need to learn to let my body get used to things before pushing my limit.

    Excedrin migraine, ice pack on head, lay down and rest. Bonus if you have someone to rub your head! Feel better.

    Don’t push yourself beyond your limit. Take it easy today. Are you changing your eating habit or caffeine intake?

    I took a short, casual walk for rest day. Looking to do 20-30 min bodyweight routine, any recommendations?

    How about something from Sydney Cummings? These are all no equipment needed, anywhere from 10-60 min...

    For some reason this app hasn’t been allowing me to sign in since yesterday morning. But I’ve done all my walks!!

    My family has decided to join my walks (and use their phone to use the Jurassic park Dino hunting app). So today was quite enjoyable. We went for almost an hour.

    Today is 30 minute HIIT walk.

    * Warmup (3 minutes): Walk at an easy, comfortable pace

    * Interval set (5 reps):

    Steady state (3 minutes): Walk briskly, enough that your breathing is elevated, but you can still talk easily.
    High-intensity (1 minute): Walk or Jog as quickly as you possibly can. At this pace your breathing should be very labored; talking is difficult.
    Recovery (1 minute): Walk at a comfortable pace, and focus on catching your breath.


    * Cooldown (2 minutes): Continue to walk at an easy, comfortable pace. (Maybe add a few stretches.)

    Is there an app for this that will tell me when to speed up or slow down?

    I am not aware of one. I just use my Apple Watch timer
