10 minutes on the mini-trampoline...
Feb. 8th, 2004 02:34 pmNow I'm all stinky and sweaty.
I think perhaps 10 minutes a day this week then next week try and up to that 15 minutes.
I want to be able to do this without gasping for air, having my throat and lungs burn and feeling like my chest is gonna explode.
I WILL get fit.

A word of advice. Well, more like a whole paragraph.
Date: 2004-02-08 09:06 am (UTC)Do 8-cycle breathing... breathe in for 8 counts, then out for 8 counts. if you can't maintain it, go to 6, or if you have to, 4. Try never to drop below 4, and make sure you breathe out for the same count as you breathe in. Usually, you breathe in through yr nose and out through yr mouth, but if you have a blocked nose just try and regulate your inbreath. Main thing is to not start breathing raggedly. Breathing from the stomach helps too, but that takes a lot more effort/concentration.
