Trampoline

My knees and shins were hurting last night so I decided not to run today.

Then, I decided to try something different to get an arobic workout... trampoline.

Jumping like mad, I got my heartrate up to 170bpm (zone 5) . . and then did 20 minutes in zone 4. Actually I jumped a lot longer working with my watch trying to get it to work right.

The result was amazing, a thoroughly exhausting leg muscle wearying workout but none of the joint soreness that is associated with running.

I think I will hit the tramp twice a week instead of running.
