I TRAINED FOR MY CAA MEDICAL BY JOGGING. I KEPT A RECORD OF GENERAL CARDIOVASCULAR FITNESS AND JOGGING TIME.
WHEN I FIRST STARTED I COULD RUN FOR ABOUT 10 MINS STOP FOR 5 MIN AND THEN CONTINUE AND A SNAILS PACE FOR A FURTHUR 10MIN PRETTY ANAEMIC. I REPEATED THIS EVERY DAY FOR 3 MONTHS AND GRADUALLY WORKED OUT THE BEST METHOD FOR CV FITNESS IS TO COMPLETELY KNACKER YOURSELF FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE RUN THEN CONTINUE UNTIL YOU HAVE BEEN JOGGING FOR AT LEAST 30MIN. YOUR HEART GRADUALLY GETS LESS SENSITIVE TO HORMONES SUCH AS ADRENALINE THEREFORE AT RESTING PERIODS YOUR BP AND PULSE RATE IS LOWER HENCE IVE GONE FROM A 140/90 TO A 120/60 AT REST WITH A PULSE RATE OF 60. I USED TO LOOK AT JOGGERS AND THINK THEY NEEDED PSYCHIATRIC HELP BUT I HONESTLY CANT RECOMMEND A BETTER WAY TO GET FIT AND THE ENDORPHIN RELEASE AFTER A HARD RUN IS MORE RELAXING THAN 3 PINTS OS STELLA (WHICH YOU SHOULD ALSO AVOID TO KEEP BP AND
PR DOWN)
