Last year I only focused on cardio and started running. In my peak I was running 4 times a week, but I try to at least get 2-3 runs in per week, any where from 5km - 10km.
The only that kept me at it, was runkeeper. Being able to see my splits, and increases. I started my 5km at 6.01min/km and went to 4.39min/km in about 6 months, and lost 40lbs thanks to running. During weekdays I would have a strict calorie intake, and not surpass 1,500 calories per day, and I also dabbled with "intermittent fasting" every 3 to 4 weeks.
Today I try to get 2-3 workouts a week, with 30 mins of cardio and 45-60mins of weight lifting. |
