Stacia slept ALL night. She slept while I went to Curves the first time, slept when I was home and slept until I got back from Curves the second time.
Wait - did I say I was at Curves twice this a.m.? Yeah. I woke up at 4 a.m. I always do this when I have something to be at in the a.m. I got up and studied, had an orange and headed for Curves at 5:25. I discovered on Tues and Thurs they don't open until 7:00! ::snort::
Quick question since many of you seem to be familiar with Curves. Yesterday the trainer said to keep my heart rate between 70 - 8o% of max. Which I kept it at 80%. Today I was doing the same and the owner said I should keep it at 70%....because I'm new to the workout. Someone care to explain to me why I'd want to keep my heart rate at 70%?
Today is our "sanity break" in this busy 4th week....so I'd best get to it and sanitize.

They suggest 60-70% because that is the optimal rate for burning fat. I am always at 70% and work to keep it down out of the 80%.
I am thinking about a walk. It may pour and thunderstorm on me, but I am thinking about it anyway :)

The rate you want to stay within depends on your goal.... fat burning or endurance...Maybe they have you varying it to change the workout... because you also don't want your body to get used to the workout either.
