BMHW Challenge - Day 3

I have yet to do today's workout. It will be done though. I have basketball tonight at 9:00pm Central time and will be following that with my workout. I did not want to be too tired before I even get to play any ball.

I will go ahead and post the workout for everyone else to see and to have those participating a chance to post their comments, how they did, and what they did.

Today has been a packed day with all kinds of things. I went to work, came home and picked up the wife, went to the thrift store, got a hair cut, ate dinner, and now am making sure that I get this blog up and create tomorrow's workout.

BTW - those of you that have been commenting have been doing great with this challenge! I'm glad that it is challenging you, as it is meant too.

I have been very motivated to finishing these workouts at full intensity because I know that you all are doing it as well. It is great to be able to do this with other people and have learned a lot already from creating the workouts. Let me tell you, it is kind of nerve-wracking figuring these things out.

What is your motivation to finishing your workouts whether it is with this challenge or your own creations?



Wednesday

Formula for max heart rate: (208 – (.7 * age))
Formula for target heart rate: 50% - 70% of Max heart rate (MHR *.5 or .7)

- Stretch -

30 Minutes Cardio: This can take place any time throughout the day and should consist of an intensity level that can promote and create weight loss. I do my cardio immediately before my workout – the workout becomes much harder. Do your best to complete the entire workout. If you have no trouble completing the workout, consider upping the level that you are working at.
