CurvyCrystal's Journal, 25 Jun 10

I took a little break from working out the last few days. I went for a walk with my boyfriend the other day but at a pretty lazy pace.
I just got off the treadmill though and realized that if I pump my arms in different directions while I walk I can work different muscles in my arms! I usually do intervals of jogging/running and walking but I think I started off a little too fast and I started to cramp up so I started walking at a very brisk pace for the last half of my work out and near the end I started pumping my arms. What I like is that not only does it burn extra calories, but I can pump them at one angle until I my muscles can't take anymore, and the pump them at another angle until those muscles get too tired, and then switch to something else, so I am constantly working different muscles. I'm thinking of working this into my intervals. I'll walk and jog as normal, but be sure to pump my arms during the walking intervals. It's just a little change, but it's nice to be able to boost my work out some how!
