HIIT WEDNESDAY!
Wednesdays (or Tuesdays, depending on when I do legs) are usually a rest day, but I think I’m going to start just doing cardio and sometimes abs on these days from now on. It doesn’t take much time and makes me feel great :)
How I do HIIT on the treadmill:
- Set incline to 2% (I’ve read in Runner’s World that this helps make it more equal to running outside) and warm up for 5 minutes at 3.5 mph.
- At 5 minutes, up the speed to 7 mph. Run for 1 minute.
- After 1 minute, bring the speed back down to 3.5. Walk for 30 seconds.
- After 30 seconds, bring the speed back up to 7 mph for 1 minute.
- REPEAT FOR 20 MINUTES.
- Cool down by walking at 3 - 3.5 mph for 5 minutes.
- Stretch for 10 minutes! You don’t want to make your legs sore and hinder your leg workout ;)
Alright. Time for me to shower and cook for the fam and Evan! I bought eggplant today…can you guys guess what old recipe I’m making?

GOOD MORNING!
Since it’s Monday, that means I don’t have class till 2! So I’ve been able to wake up around 9, get my omelet and protein oatmeal, browse some social networking, and relax a little.
On Friday I did HIIT on the treadmill for the first time since winter break and then on Saturday I did my hams/glutes workout, so today my legs are STILL sore. Haha it’s killing me. I’ve been shuffling around like a grandma. I think after I make this post I’ll do some yoga and stretching :)
Around 11:15 I’m meeting my best friend/Alpha Phi sister at the gym. Today is chest day so we’ll see if she joins me :) I think I’m going to save my HIIT treadmill workout for after my last class, which ends at 4:00 or for after my Alpha Phi chapter (meeting) tonight. I’m going to try to go before the meeting though, just so I can go to bed early.
Once again, I’m an old person.
And because I’m sure someone will ask, my current HIIT treadmill workout is this:
- 1.5 incline
- 5 minute warm up
- 20 minutes of: 7 mph for 1 minute
- 3.5 mph for 30 seconds
- Last interval is 7.5-8 mph (to really kill me)
- 5 minute cool down (after 20 minutes are up)
I hope you all have a great day!!!
Tonight was my first night back in the gym after being sick, and lucky me, it was legs day! That enthusiasm is a little fake - lolll.
PROS of tonight’s workout:
- I got in the gym. YIPPEE
- I learned how to position the barbell in between my traps and shoulders so my arms wouldn’t go numb during squats. YAY
- I did bodyweight for 3 reps (115). I was feeling pretty weak so I was happy about that
- Had a nice convo with the guy who let me work in and found out the crossfit box in town has free workouts on Saturdays at 9am.
CONS:
- I haven’t been eating much since I’ve been sick, so my legs were shaking like crazy and my endurance was shot.
- ^ that is basically it. It just kind of hindered my whole workout *cries*
So ya. I could barely walk afterward. I can still barely walk… I’ve had my protein shake and legs-day-post-workout cookies (made by my mama). Haha. I just need to focus on eating more and I should be back to normal in no time!
