40 MINUTES OF SPORTS OR CARDIO CIRCUIT TRAINING. By now, chances are that you've found a class or activity that you love doing on a regular basis. If not, let's repeat our cardio circuit training from Day 12. Warm up for 5 minutes on the TREADMILL, then elevate the speed and incline and walk briskly for 5 minutes. On the STATIONARY BIKE, pedal for the next 5 minutes, increasing the speed and resistance until pedaling is difficult.
Step off, and head for the GAUNTLET or STAIRMASTER, and climb for exactly 5 minutes. Next head to the ROWER, keeping close track of your form as you row in a circular motion (bring your arms back to your chest, then down to your waist before straightening them back out) for 5 minutes. Next, the ELLIPTICAL TRAINER or NORDIC TRAC for 5 minutes (today, try to do this while holding a set of 3-lb. dumbbells). Finally, back to the TREADMILL for a 5-minute walk/jog, and a 5-minute cooldown. Relish the burn, and treat yourself to a 10-minute stretch.
