The first Wednesday in April is always National Walking Day, which happens to fall on this day - April 5 - this year.
I walk every day the weather permits; and Holland fixed the my digital treadmill so I can walk my paces when the weather is punkish :-)
And this morning, Holland said we'd be doing some hiking and electric mountain biking while we engage in our road gypsy life; I'm so glad he wanting to do these things with me ;-)
E-bike workouts are a great form of cardio because they get the heart rate going; they offer the same cardiovascular health benefits as a conventional bicycle. While e-bikes do come with a handy pedal-assist feature, it doesn't mean the pedals are useless.
I am also going to be adding strength training exercise to the walking and biking activities :-)
I like to work my body; and Holland is game to start working his. Of course we won't get crazy - I'm 66, he's 60, so we'll be pacing ourselves and not overstressing our {senior} bodies ;-)
I've already packed my dumbbells & kettlebell weights (48 lbs. worth in various weights) along with my floor mat; we are not going to be slouches on the road.
