If I had one suggestion for every one out there on a treadmill, stationary bike, eliptical machine or any other non-functional machine...it would be, to figure out how to develop some degree of intensity. First choose free-weight and body-weight based, functional movement(s) and combine them in a constantly varied pattern, executed at high intensity. We call it the "RED ZONE". If you're not in the RED ZONE than you're not working hard enough. Of course we don't jump right into this relatively high level of intensity...you must work your way into it! The three stages of performance improvement are 1. Mechanics (learning how to perform the exercises correctly!) 2. Consistency (showing up, not quitting!) 3. Intensity( think of this as a long on ramp to the free-way of INTENSITY!) Intensity is the secret to getting results! Watch this
VIDEO for a better understanding of intensity! INTENSITY=RESULTS!
