After 5 minutes on the stair master I couldn't go anymore and I felt like there was no way I would make it on the treadmill so I did 10 minutes on the exercise bike. After 10 minutes on the exercise bike I felt back to normal and finished cardio with 15 minutes on the treadmill alternating walking at a speed of 3.0 and jogging at a speed of 5.0. I finished 1 mile in 15 minutes on the treadmill and felt good after leaving the gym. I am glad I accomplished my goal this week of hitting the gym at least once and glad I was able to get a good work out in.
