What Do You All Do To Fight Cardio Boredom?

[Radical Ice]

One reason i've NEVER missed a single workout since I started lifting is cause I love it so much. That's how things should be, you gotta love it to do it.

I can't stand cardio.

Hence, I run OUT for a max of about 15 minutes... then walk home. This equals about 45 minutes of being on the treadmill 'cuz it takes my 1/2 an hour to walk back... 45 minute total time.

I can walk dogs easily... find it very fun... and I can ride a bike easily IF I'M GOING SOMEWHERE.

I just can't do cardio for its own sake. It is too boring.

Fortunately, I love boxing and kickboxing. I get in great boxing workouts 4-5 nights a week.

BINGO!!!

Gotta love to do it to keep yourself doing it consistently and to make it a lifestyle... reading and watching TV will help pass the time, but you can't get bored if you find something you actually look forward to doing...

I've been doing 45 minutes (just bumped it up to 60 minutes a few days ago) on the treadmill (4.0mph 3 degree incline) every morning for the last 24 days. Yes, it's boring as hell. I just stair out the window and day dream till the 60 minutes is over.

Damn, that sounds crucial........a whole hour. How are the results coming along? Are you on any supplements?

Results are comming along great! I'm not taking any gear right now at all. I'm on SwoleCat's program (swolegenix), dropped about 13lbs so far in 24 days, and almost every one of my lifts is up (deads up 25lbs, squats up 25lbs, incline up 15lbs)

Try sprints. Run 12-16 40 yard sprints, with 45 seconds between each one. Not boring.

I was at the gym this morning and i was doing my morning jog at the treadmill and i realize that enduranec is not my problem but boredom. What do you guys do to fight boredom during cardio?

Make sure a hot chic with a tight-ass is on the treadmill in front of me... it helps pass the time!!

... and lots of music!!
