Today's EXERCISE

45 minutes of Impact Fitness & Wellbeing Boxing - Rocky Balboa eat your heart out!

3km (60 minutes) walk around Moon Reserve.  My boys took their bikes and found it really hard to ride on the gravel and so I pretty much push/pulled them along (in turn) on their bikes the entire 3km's.  That's one way to burn extra calories - phew!

Note:

I am trying to keep my focus with exercise on training smart, so this means that I work within my Aerobic and Thresold zones of between 75% - 90% of my Max Heart Rate - Interval Training.  In order to do this, I work at a high intensity in order to get my heart rate up.  I then keep it up for a minute or more, and then I have a break until my HR drops back down again to the 75%.  Even though the breaks are only around 30 seconds (sometimes a little longer - depending on how buggered I am LOL) I am finding the breaks incredibly frustrating.  But they say that this is the 'SMART' way to train and so I figure I have nothing to loose by giving it a go.
