I took a break from fitness and dieting. I was really on a roll for a while there, and I want to get back into it.

While I like lower-impact exercising, I’ve been working on starting a running routine. Running is difficult for me. It’s not so bad on a treadmill, but trying to focus on an outside-route in this humidity level has been really tough.

The program is the link above. Basically, in the past I have started off trying to push through 1-2 miles in my first workout and gotten terrible, terrible shin splints and “stitch” in my side. So I’m trying to ease into it this time around with a less intense program. If anybody else wants to try and do it with me, it’s a great program to get moving and outside.

Week
1
Workout 1-Brisk five-minute warmup walk. Then alternate 60 seconds of jogging and 90 seconds of walking for a total of 20 minutes.
Workout 2-Brisk five-minute warmup walk. Then alternate 60 seconds of jogging and 90 seconds of walking for a total of 20 minutes.
Workout 3- Brisk five-minute warmup walk. Then alternate 60 seconds of jogging and 90 seconds of walking for a total of 20 minutes


That is the first week. Pretty low-impact, I haven’t been sore at all after the workout, though definitely pretty sweaty. I should be back in the gym in the next week or so as well. Here's to hoping I can stay on track  Smile

Have you ever considered using an elliptical for indoors and a bike for outdoors?

I have incredibly flat feet and using an elliptical makes things much easier. A bike can get you the same kind of workout without the high impact that running has.

I typically use a treadmill, but I could try an elliptical. Right now I am planning on signing up for my company 5k in October, and I really need the experience of running outside to prepare for it.

There are these hard core ellipticle/stair master hybrids which if your gym has them they are a great work out.


Re: Workout tips/advice? - copulatingduck - 06-23-2010

ellipticals and stairmasters can be great, but if you're doing a 5k you're absolutely right in practicing on a track. You could use them for intervals before or after a run though

I can't do a track; I get so bored. Right now I am running to the end of my street and back (about a mile each way) alternating between walking and running. I'm doing about 10 minutes a mile, which isn't great, but much better then just sitting on my couch and walking Sportscenter.

How do you make "stitch" or whatever go away? I'm not sure if that is what it is really called, that is what Google came up with.

When I have a better pace (more run then jog) it feels like some organ in my right side is going to tear out of my side. I have been jogging for about two weeks now, and my last run was actually a little less painful then before. Does it just get better after a point?
