almostfit is on a distinguished road
I've been doing my routine 6 days a week and walking to work (40mins nice and hilly) a couple of days a week.
I can really feel the improvement, especially in my thighs and biceps & triceps, I'm getting stronger and feeling great.
I got these gloves the other day because I'm getting hard skin on my hands from the weights & machines and they have wrist straps which is helping me so much! I can do more pushups and feel so much stronger through my wrists when I'm working.
I've been getting better at running. I'm not great or anything but I'm improving so I'm happy. In my routine the 10 min cardio sections are rotated but at least one set a day has been (1min walk 6, 1 min jog 7, 30 sec run 9) x4. At first I was really puffed and sweaty but it's getting easier and I'm thinking about increasing the time I do it to 20mins or would it be better to increase the speed? or add an incline?

Keep smiling
