Starling Fitness: Daily writings on Fitness, Diet, and Health

This morning, while I was on the exercise bike, I wanted to watch a video that would keep me going. My goal was to do the interval workout for 20 minutes and keep my RPMs at 50 for the whole workout, especially when the resistance went up on the intervals.

I was watching this video during my workout and I looked up at the readout for the exercise bike. My RPMs were hovering around 63, WAY faster than my goal, and I was on the hardest interval of the workout. The music and the pictures really helped keep me working out at an even higher level than I hoped.

I really liked this saying from the video:

Potential means nothing if you do nothing with it.

It’s so true. I just wish this video lasted twenty minutes long to hold me through my entire workout!
