Gees!
Since last Thursday (20th) I have done no exercise. A person lose fitness after 48 hours.
Today, I did the treadmill and ran 5.3km in 30 mins (all 85kg of me pounding on the poor machine). Well it is short of what I usually do but guess I just have to start regaining fitness again. So all of you please try not to skip exercise for more than 48 hours.
Tomorrow I will swim as it will allow my lower body muscle group to rest. When I swim free style it is 80% upper body strength and 20% lower body strength. For sports longevity, it is important to cross train (i.e cross over to train different muscle groups).
Lets hope I have not lost touch too much and can finish my 50 laps (2.5km) within an hour :-0.
I did a Graduate Diploma in Sports Medicine under the WAIS. It has been useful knowledge ever since.
