Cross training

Rest day on the schedule today.  I figured since I had the day off I would get myself back into Cross training.

Bowflex workout for a half hour and then 5 miles on the exercise bike.


Not too much but did not want to overdo it either.  It felt good to get back into this.  I really should do more cross training but I just can't get motivated to do it.


Question of the day?  How do you get yourself motivated to cross train?




Have a great day and....Keep Running!!!!!

    Is Pacman a cross-training sport? I think I would like to do that if it is!

    I don't motivate myself to cross train. I think that's my major problem :).

    I only do some core and upper body exercises in addition to running. I do it at home after my shorter runs three times per week. I find if I do it right after my run I don't need special motivation for it.

    My cross training comes from triathlon since I have to practice all three sports and a mandated exercise routine from my physical therapist….I am not so good at motivating myself. I hate weight lifting machines!

    Christi - you can throw a couple games in, I suppose.

    Ken - you got it!

    Beth - I hate lifting too. Haha!

    I don't cross-train near as much as I should. I mix in quite a bit of leg work, but I need to be better about actual workouts that increase my heart rate.

    Is it bad that cross-trainer equipment instantly reminds me of medieval torture devices? I'm horrible about it!
