Hi, Juliana. I have finished reading MM's book and I would like to join the club, please. I don't really know why because I am extremely exercise averse and have failed miserably at every form of exercise that I have tried.
I started using my son's Concept 2 rowing machine on the 10th January, with very low targets! I aimed for 2000m with the intention of improving, over time, the speed taken to complete it. I seem to average 12 minutes, which is appalling but, I assume, better than nothing!
I managed to do four consecutive days without much trouble (I needed a brief break at 1000m for a burst of my inhaler) then on my regular visit to my osteopath, he suggested that, as I was starting at point zero on the exercise scale, I should do alternate days!
This was marvellous news and I think will fit in well with the information in MM's book that doing more than 3 sessions of HIT a week will bring no added benefits. Music to my ears!
I intend to stick to my 2000 metres but introduce some short, intense bursts into it. I'll let you know how I get on! Wish me luck!
