Six days this week, but my Nordi Trac doesn't register on the pedometer ... in any event, I'm a moving fool!!
thanks Nance - I'll check into it ... we may be just plain old working too hard!! Our YMCA has a good program and trainers, gotta find the time ... tee hee
Maureen, ref the pulse rate thing:
First take 220 and subtract your age. Your goal is 65%-75% of that number for your "optimum" heart rate (for one minute). Of course, no one wants to stand there for one whole minute ... so just count for 10 seconds and multiply your result by 10. [they say that's more accurate anyway]
[I'm 52. 220-52 = 168. 168 X 65% = 109 / 169 x 75% = 126. Divide either by 6, and my ideal pulse rate range is 18 - 28 for a 10 second count.] I just remember "around 20" and I feel good about it
Here we go gang, a whole new week - good luck to all
