Work Day (Cardio) Gym Session 19/03/2008

I got off work late today somewhere about 7:10 pm and arrived at gym 7:15 pm. Thankfully, I have took a day off on Friday therefore I have a long weekend ahead.I am pretty sure I will be able to do another session on Friday as well, making that the third gym session of the week. Also I got off gym at 9:15 pm, total time spent in gym = 2 hours.

Today's gym session, I went full blast on cardiovascular exercises. The workout routine are as follows:

20 mins on rowing machine @ effort level = 10
* Resulted in 170 calories burned

30 mins on stepper @ effort level = 13 (max level= 25)
1 min on stepper @ effort level = 10
* Resulted in 390 calories burned and 190 floors climbed.

30 mins treadmill @ 7.0 kmph and gradient = 5.0%
1 min treadmill @ 5.5 kmph and gradient = 2.5%
* Resulted in 280 calories burned and 3.3 km fast walked.

20 mins on crosstrainer @ effort level = 15
1 min on crosstrainer @ effort level = 10
* Resulted in 170 calories burned and about 1.2km walked.

Total calories burned for this cardio session = 170+390+280+170 = 1,010 calories burned.

Seems like a lot of calories burned but I would prefer it somewhere within the range of 1,200 or above as I still have tonnes of body fat to lose. I'll need to check the body fat measure machine by end of April. Let's hope for the best.

Cheers
