Previous Post... Addendum

So I said it was a rest day. Well, it was until this evening when I was tired of not doing much all day. I felt that I had to do something!

So I got up off my butt and did Pilates 57 and free weights for my arms!

Ahhh. .. ..Now I feel better and will sleep like a baby!

Out of curiousity I wore my heart rate monitor while doing Pilates 57. Who knew you could burn 180 calories doing that?

Nice.

Great job!! That feels so good to do something even on a rest day!

Yeah, pilates can really be a good workout. And, "rest" days just mean a rest from running, most of us do nothing, but as long as you're doing another activity aside from running, you're good to go!

Nice cross training! 180 calories is all good! So what did your heart rate get up to?

you spent your rest day doing pilates?!?! you're seriously hard core. the most activity i get on rest days is going shopping :)

Wes, I believe that my heart rate got up to 120-125 (that was while doing the nasty 100's)

Miss Petite....I would rather do an hour of pilates then shop. Sadly enough.

Nice! I'm curious how Pilates has enhanced your running. I'm thinking of trying it myself.
