After several weeks of sub-par training, I put together a good mix of workouts that were taxing, but not draining. The most important aspect of a workout regimen in my opinion, is consistency. Even if you are having off-weeks, and you will, stay with it even if you have to back off. It is far easier to go into “maintenance mode” and lose a little than have to start all over again. I know this. I have done it enough times and each time it is considerably harder than the last.
You don’t need an expensive and fancy machine to do your cardio. Wherever you stand right now presents an ample opportunity to get that metcon work in quickly.
