Today is the tenth day of the 30-day challenge! The results so far are very good in spite of one missed day: I feel I have more energy, don’t get tired so easily and sleep better. LadyRostand probably will say that the last thing is not possible as I was falling asleep in less than one minute flat even before I started this challenge.
Out of the nine days when I have exercised as planned I’ve spent most of the time on our stationary bike. Since yesterday I’m on the most difficult level in the computer controlled training programs so I might need to start using the manual program which allows to increase the load even more.
By the way, we’ve been tracking our usage of the bike even before the beginning of my challenge. The reason for that was that we wanted to know how long would it take us to use the bike enough times as to recover its cost. Our estimate was that each of us needed to use it for 10 hours. This was based on the price of the bike (€300), the cost of a visit to a gym in our neighborhood (€7.50) and the average duration of exercise on a bike in the gym (30 minutes). LadyRostand disagrees with this calculation
At the moment we’ve got a total of 16.5 hours done! Over half of that is thanks to LadyRostand who’s been exercising more regularly than me. At the same time, over one third is from this month which includes all I’ve been doing as part of the 30-day challenge.
My plan is to continue with the challenge but I want to use a bit less the bike and do more higher-variety exercises.
