Cross training question?

Question

Hey there, so I've decided to start running to lose weight, I'm starting my program, It's a walk/jog program that will get me up to jogging two miles at the end of 8 weeks. ANyways, on some of the 'rest days' it says you can either rest or cross train. I was wondering, what are some good indoor cross-training things I can do?

Answer 1

Cross train is another step of building up-strength on a decided sport that your in. If running is your sport like I am. speed walking for 45min, clinbing 25 stories HDB in 12mins, or biking in a mountain trail like Bt Timah bike track. Well good luck and enjoy the pain. Because pain is gain in sports..

Answer 2

Stationary bike

Pilates

Yoga

Tae Bo

Dancing

Basically, you want to get your heart rate above 120 for 20+ minutes.  You can do this with weights, step aerobics, etc.  

Good Luck!

Answer 3

climb up stair, if u want to lost weight i think this is the best training. The best time to do is one hour after dinner and you climb up slowly for about twenty floor HDB flat standard staircase.
