I was talking to my daughter today. I said something like, "I exercise every day, I walk on the treadmill, I lift weights, I don't understand why I have no endurance. I am wiped out after just a few minutes of anything." She paused for a moment and asked, "How long are you doing each activity?"
D'oh. Hmmm. Maybe 10 minutes... 10 min on a treadmill, 10 min lifting weights and 10 min on exercise bike still equals 30 min of exercise. It still burns calories, but it is not going to build any kind of endurance.
You can scroll down to the post about how I hate to exercise. But since I am '49 and holding', I'm going to have to get serious about the endurance part of it, or I will be on one of those scooter chairs before long!
