Thoughts: Yes, it’s true.

The day has come when I have to say that I’m getting a bit bored with my cardio routine. The theory behind it all is that doing 45 minutes of low-intensity, steady-state cardio every day will burn fat directly while preserving muscle mass, but I have to say that it really makes me NOT want to wake up and do my morning workout every day.

I might try out the 5:30 am spinning class at my gym Thursday just for variety. I figure that the utter misery I shall feel during and after spinning should completely renew my enthusiasm for LISS on the treadmill for the remainder of my SGX challenge.

Gah, I hate spinning.
