Cardio

[Kante]

For those of you who do cardio, how many hours a week do you do so?

And if you do it on the treadmill, can you tell me how your exercise goes?

without getting into too much chatter, i want to forewarn you, if you want to stay in a decent shape do not go over 2 miles at a decent running pace because i made the mistake of falling in love with running and doing six miles everyday, and got shin splints which are the most unbearable thing to ever have to deal with because its such a high impact area and my doctor told me if i ever want to do anything of the athletic sort ever again, i cannot run more than a mile at a time. and i do cardio about every othe day, just to save my shins and other various body parts, i supplement it with lifting and ab workouts. so its safe to say on the treadmill the most i'd run is a mile but the most effective thing to actually do is put the uphill grade on the highest it can go and walk about a 3.5 speed(usually gets higher as i got along) with ankle weights on, its unbelievable, its alot more low impact than running but you work up a heck of a sweat, and you can feel it tone your calves, glutes, and hams as you go. hope this helped, have fun, happy walking/running!
