While I knew there was a chance of rain today, I didn’t expect it to rain all morning. It hadn’t quite started when I first woke up at 5am, but I checked the radar and decided to just wait for it to pass. By 10:30, I realized that wasn’t going to happen so I did some cardio on the front porch. If it dries later, I’ll try to get in a bit of a walk. The temperature is so perfect today; it’s a shame to waste it.
I’m apparently doing stationary cardio incorrectly. I just can’t seem to get my heart rate up as much as walking, even when I feel like what I’m doing is much more difficult. I have the same issue with aerobic exercises. They will make me sweat a lot, but they don’t really move my heart rate as much as walking. It is possible that I need to be slightly more concerned about why walking increases my heart rate so much, but either way I’d like them to be similar.
