I decided to go to the CPF for a cross-training workout today. Upon arrival, there was a sign that said the weight room was closed for remodeling. I guess they are putting new rubberized flooring down and it will be completed by tomorrow. Not that deterred me in any way, but I figured the cardio machines would be busy.
Today marks the first day of using an elliptical trainer. It took me a few minutes to get the settings adjusted to allow me enough resistance and the proper incline. I had planned on 30 min's of elliptical and 30 min's of bike, but I stayed on the elliptical the whole time. HR's 145-155 bpm at a workload of estimated 12.5-13.0 METS. I was pleased with this workout, as it is very close to workloads of a typical run. Back to the pool tomorrow a.m., along with some light treadmill running.
