I started out with the goal of "keeping my heart happy," which I decided I would achieve by doing an hour per day of walking, cycling, or jogging, 5-6 days a week. I agree that it's about time to be more thoughtful and deliberate about goal-setting. Thanks!

I have access to a bunch of fitness classes, so this will be relatively easy to implement. I wouldn't say I've been sedentary my whole life, but I haven't been engaged in regular vigorous exercise for about 9 years.

This is really helpful folks. Thank you all. I hear you saying slow down and tune in to the discomfort I may have. And to respect the rest. Have to change my whole power-through mentality, and I have to do it now!

I am definitely one to block out pain. Will have to find a better way to distinguish normal soreness & muscle burn from actual sign-of-a-problem pain.

:o Noted.

That sounds awful. :# For how long were you running daily before injury?

This is a lot more sustainable than where I was headed. Thanks!!

Also recently back in the game! Yes!!

Yaaas! Add away.

CLASSIC, which should be on the radio everywhere by now. by MKTO

interesting....low HR for long periods of time sounds like watching LOTR on the treadmill. i like where this is going

i'm 178 at the moment! 5'0"

once I get an HRM i'll try it

Level 10 on my bike!

kind of disappointing that i don't burn major calories while doing almost nothing tho. lol. looks like tomorrow's a two-a-day!

this would be ideal!! thanks for your take

My sentiments exactly. LOL
