What are some interval workouts I can do at home?

  1. 1st Always check with a physician before starting your changing exercise routine. 
  2. If you're out of shape don't try to be hero lower the small risk that exists by starting easy and then working your way up to the tougher sessions 
  3. Start with an interval walking program and then moving on to harder workouts Only when you're comfortable with the lower intensity stuff should you consider moving up to the really potent ultra time efficient 
  4. Start with a few minutes of warmup walking - conduct your 1st interval by speeding up the pace to an intensity of around 3 out of 10 - walk at a faster pace for 3 minutes then ease off to a more relaxed pace for 3 minutes 
  5. That's it basically you walk at a normal pace for 3 minutes then walk faster for 3 minutes then slow it down again going back and forth like that for 3 minutes at a time. 
  6. People with type 2 diabetes who use interval walking cut body fat and improve their blood sugar control while just regular steady state walking did not 
  7. Next consider trying 10 by 1 -that's basically just a minute of hard effort then a minute of rest and repeat until you've conducted 10 intervals add 2 minutes of warm up a 3 minute cooldown and the whole routine takes 25 minutes you can do it on an exercise bike running on a track climbing or climbing the stairs in your office building
  8. It can improve body composition and muscle endurance and in cardiac rehab patients in their sixty's who conducted the protocol twice a week for 12 weeks it boosted their cardio respiratory fitness and artery health to the same extent as a group that did twice as much moderate intensity continuous exercise the format is fun and easy it can be used by virtually anyone healthy enough to conduct these hard intervals

Running an aid station in the Heart of the Forest.

Image
Volunteers are the Heart of any event, the message on WhatsApp read. For someone like me who thrives on adventure, uncertainty, organizing, and being in the great outdoors, this is an opportunity to satisfy my soul while assisting my friends who are the organizers of The Eastern Trail Series - Happy Forest run. The event took place in Kondapalli forest, a vast 33,000-acre expanse nestled in the Eastern Ghats. The dedicated organizing team had diligently placed signboards and cleared the trail the day before. It was then our turn, as volunteers, to take on the most critical task: managing an aid station deep within the heart of the forest. Our responsibility was to operate this vital aid station, located in the very midst of the forest. We embarked on a journey, driving deep into the woods, carrying an array of water containers, refreshments, a first-aid kit, tents, and prepared to spend the night. We inquired with local residents for the most accessible route into the forest. Their ama...

INTO THE LIFE

Image
If living is what you call a Life, you must read this. Because this place is all LIFE. I was intimated about the trip 5 days prior. My pockets were empty out of money but were full of determination and desperation to go. I had started thinking of ways and decided to sell things on OLX. I had uploaded ancient coins, a vintage reel camera, a cycle pump and a path detecting robot vehicle I had made during our final semester project.  I was running out of time and sold none of the above. I was afraid but deep inside I strongly wanted to go. Fortunately, on the very last day I got calls from olx buyers and sold everything on a single day. Then I got my bike serviced and packed all the stuff.  Then I was informed to get a MTB to enjoy off-roading. Again I started searching for alternatives. Phoned one of my friend, took his mtb and getting it serviced would have costed me a brand new bike. So I got the damaged pedal welded without actually replacing it, fixed disk brakes on my o...

Bike Packing Trip To #BHADRACHALAM

Image
What could possibly be more blissful than a long bike-packing trip?  We had planned this ride with the intention of making the last days of college much more memorable. I am Krishna kanth along with my buddy and brother- in-arms,  Samanyu. Prior to the trip, we hadn't the slightest idea that the place would turn out to be so stunning. BHADRACHALAM, the place gave us what we wanted-- PLEASURE.  With neither a bungee strap nor a packing bag, we made it all the way with only a fold-able travel bag and an elastic rope. Though we always carried Rear Lights, Front Lights, Extra Batteries, Puncture Kit, Salt Capsules, Wet Wipes, Chargers,  Helmets and Reflective Vests, we decided to add two pairs of Night Wear and Casuals to the list. After airing up our tyres, cleaning our chains and dusting off the frame, we finally started.  We had 220 kilometers to cover. About 50 kilometers from the start point, we pulled to a halt at a place called Kondapalli. T...
