Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 Thanks for all the advice and I have seriously mulled over every response. I will continue as I have been doing. I will incorporate more fun cardio into my lifestyle. Tonight I am doing cardio kickboxing, which almost killed me last time. I will incorporate more walking also into my routine. Quick question. Can I do HIIT and weights on the same day if I split them. For example HIIT at 5AM and weights at 6PM? Just curious. This would work better for my schedule but if it would hurt progress then I won't do it. Thanks again and I am totally committed to finishing this challenge and hitting my 10s!! Anita Quote
Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 It's not that there's going to be anything terribly wrong with doing them on the same day at separate times, the problem is that leaves you with four days of the week where you're not jump-starting your metabolism. The cardio and weight workouts are split for the metabolic benefits of doing something six days a week that's strenuous and causes you to burn calories at a higher rate for hours afterward. If you're only talking about combining them on one day, or you have enough other bonus activities going on, it could work. But it's best to do them on different days in order to keep the daily calorie burning in high gear. On 3/27/06, anita_obrien2003 <anita_obrien2003@...> wrote: > > Quick question.
