pretty interesting

Day 1  - Tabata (late to the party)

While I was doing it I felt fine, and actually thought "is that it?".

As soon as a I finished I felt like dog shit, and half an hour later I still do.

[derivative666]

^that means you did it right. It gets better. Stick with it.

I pretty much heave when I tabata, or at least come close.

The infamous "VURP" vomit/burp

[mclaincausey]

Haha yeah. I also get serious headaches for maybe 20-30 minutes after but I am used to that from high volume weight training. Just about the only time I get headaches.

[Finn666]

^ breathing the wrong way can be a cause for that headache mcKleine…jfyi!

mega - Jeff is right. you know that you're doing it right, when you can't do shit at all afterwards!
already looking forward to my 5min workout in a few

[Megatron1505]

I had around 30 minutes of jelly muscle going on afterwards, then after a shower and a sit down I have the whole stiffness thing happening. Looking forward to tomorrow, I actually think it's really good.

[Finn666]

it really is…even better than going for a 30min. run (with constant/normal speed!)...and it burns fat way longer into the day as such a run! so it's a win win situation...done in no time & burning fat way longer!

[mclaincausey]

Running releases more cortisol and not as much beneficial hormone to offset that versus intense intervals. You know, the whole compare a sprinter's to a marathoner's body, etc.

[mvb]

5 min workout, wut??

[Finn666]

@mvb:

5 min workout, wut??

check "tabata" on youtube mate!

[mvb]

Ok i will, don't think CT would agree though

[mclaincausey]

Just had some corn tortilla chips and noticed immediate inflammation. Nose started running, etc, almost an allergic reaction. I really do need to stick to paleo better

My pre-order finally shipped the other day. Really interesting already, $100, for almost nil effort does sleep tracking, walking/steps, heart rate, hills etc. Really great device (so far 2 days in).

Not that it's changed my sleeping patterns but both mornings I've been in deep sleep when I woke up, which will help evolve my patterns…

Looks like a great device. Very similar to my fitbit which I love and use daily.

^yes it is very similar. I was looking @ that also, but already havewithing wifi scales (yes, i digitally track my weight daily). Buying into their system makes for a very nice single iphone app that report.

I've been curious about my sleep patterns for years, now i start collecting data :).
