working a lot harder

Today I have eaten 1044 calories. This morning I did an exercise video and burned off 392 calories. This evening I went to the gym and burned off 776 calories making a total of 1168 calories burned off. I'm happy with that.

My god I've worked hard. At the gym my maximum heart rate was 182. I was pleased this morning to find that I couldn't get my heart rate up very high with the standard workout I usually do on the video and had to include all the extra bits designed to increase intensity.

I was very pleased with that as I remember only being able to do about 5 minutes of the easy version before collapsing onto the sofa gasping for breath and my heart beating so hard it felt like it was going to explode out of my chest.
