Very hot and sweaty just off the treadmill and no pain will gain is certainly working, alongside regular exercise. I am probably toward the extreme of exercise at present. It's become my key focus in lockdown, and, with plenty of sport to watch I am making good gains with no pain. I am pushing myself but just enough and easing off when needed. The last few days I have been trying to establish a solid jog but without success. Increasing speed from a fast walking base, once comfortable, but I have not managed more than 3-4 minutes. Today and early 5.02km session set me up for my best session since August last year, with that session a best for several years. Again starting off this session I got up to a fast walk at 6.5kmph before trying to jog, managed two minutes early ion then slowed. I kept this up until either 22 or 24 minutes, not sure which as what came next was a complete surprise - a jog until then end of the 50 minutes. I felt good so simply kept going setting a series of mini goals along the way - jog to 26, jog to 30 etc. I did slow down once from 7.8kmph to 7.5 for 2 minutes but then back to 7,8. Have not tested but have not eaten since last evening so in keto without a shadow of a doubt.
Really great to work up a very healthy sweat!! More to come
