M6:D19 (D497) Be alert!

March 5, 2009 By Michael Mahony, ISSA CPT Leave a Comment


What's on my mind today?

Pay attention to what your body tells you.  When you are working out the best way to see results is to feel the connection between the mind and the muscle.  You have to be alert!

You may be smart and log your food, but do you go over the results and make changes? Do you react to the data your body gives you?  People often talk about needing feedback, but they are getting constant feedback from their body.  It may not be the type of feedback they want, but it is feedback nonetheless.

If you are alert to what your body tells you a response to that feedback should be forthcoming.  It is then going to be up to you to step up and do something.  Make things happen based upon the feedback your body gives you.  Do things based upon your alert attitude.

Evening cardio today was a new machine I found called the Cybex.  It is like an ellipptical, but it has a much longer stride, so it really works the legs.  I enjoyed a 50 minute steady state session.

Being alert requires you to pay attention to your environment.

Cardio today.  I spent some time running intervals and then finished off with 30 minutes of steady state on the treadmill.  The total time to day was 60 minutes.

M6:D17 (D495) Work harder, work stronger

March 4, 2009 By Michael Mahony, ISSA CPT Leave a Comment


What's on my mind today?

It is true. The harder you work the harder it gets.  The harder it gets the stronger you get.  This applies to most everything.  Every time you work hard at something you get better at it.  The better you get at something the harder it becomes to improve.  At the same time, the harder you work at something the stronger you get at it.  This is just an unwritten rule of life.

Take this concept and apply it to your training.  Don’t settle for “good enough.”  Push yourself to the bitter end.  Don’t leave the station until you’ve done every rep possible.  If someone asks you “How many reps should I do?” answer them by saying “All of them!”

Such a simple, yet overlooked concept—doing all the repetitions.  This means going to failure.  Going until you cannot go any more.  That’s how you know you did all the repetitions.  Give it a try the next time you are at the gym. Forget about the 8-12 rep range some “expert” suggested, just do all the repetitions you have in you and you can rest assured that you worked your hardest that day.

Can you avoid overtraining?

Can you cut through the maze of internet programs?

Can you train with intensity?

Find out what I'm doing to my body!



I had an awesome cardio session today.  I’m not sure what possessed me, but I did intervals for 30 minutes, running at a speed of 8.5 mph for 1 minute followed by walking at 3.5 mph for 1 minute.  I then did another 30 minutes walking at 4.0 mph with an incline of 5%.  I was dripping with sweat by the time I was done.  I’m in fat burning mode all the way!
