BUT it's great to have this to shoot for! I do 15 mins on bike trainer straight every other day and on the weight day I do 15 mins stretches/dance/hoola hoop, etc. So the 5 min hoola hoop will now be counted! And I will try to sneak in stuff throughout the day. Not sure WHAT I'll do the week I'm away? I guess I'll be doing a ton of walking...but I know it won't be on schedule with holidays and such...but I can def. do walking! Hmm...now to figure out my short-term goals...with the long-term goal 200 cardio mins per week, thanks to you Jenny! I love goals! Btw, if you have any cardio ideas for mini-stretches throughout the day (you might not since you said you like to do it in blocks?) bring em' on! *big huge hugs* Ruch -------------------- Formerly known as Ruchie Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: 200 minutes a week?       #213407 - 09/14/05 06:21 PM Edit Reply Quote chinagrl Reged: 12/18/03 Posts: 2439 Thanks for the hugs Ruchie!!

So it is good to squeeze in too. -------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages: "You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!

However, studies have shown that three times a week is no more effective than 2. So I just do that stuff twice, and focus the other four days on cardio. As far as short term metabolism pick up- cardio revs up your metabolism more than weight lifting for the immediate 4 hours after you do it.
