Hello I'm back but this blog is about my personal challenge to improve my cardiovascular fitness and so far the start has gone well. I started first of the cross-trainers, I put the toughness up to the max and got that going for ten minutes, from a personal point of view it was easy. My heart rate after I got off the cross-trainer was only 84, I was a bit disappointed because the right rate of your heart should be 120 to 125 I think. The next piece of equipment I used was the tread mill and that went really smoothly for the ten minutes but two times during my run the safety clip popped out of the place where it should be, after the second time it did that it happened I was getting annoyed. The last piece of equipment I used was the rowing machines, I tried to race my friend but I pulled out because I had the resistance up to high. I didn't get as much time on that as was expected, but I wasn't to bothered about that. I forgot to mention that at the end of the period I was skipping in one of the other rooms (bad idea if the room has a fan in it or any furniture for that matter) and when the teacher told us to pack up I tried to do a double skip but I didn't watch where I was because as soon as I tried it the skipping rope flicked up into the slowly turning fan and I ended up on the floor after that. I'm hoping to do better next time but as things are they are going pretty well for now.
Schedule:
10 min of cross trainer
10 min of treadmill

10 min bike

As I mentioned I am making this blog to say about how I am doing to improve my cardiovascular fittness and the main way I will be trying to improve it is by doing a lot of long distance running and to try and do as much running as possible wheather its by soccer, badmiton or dodge ball I will have a lot of options to improve my cardiovaslcuar fittnes level
