Low Impact Cardio Workout

As I mentioned earlier I have cause myself a knee injury
by running on the treadmill!
Its really hard to burn a decent amount of calories walking on it too...



But after watching a video by Michelle Bridges about alternatives to the treadmill
I decided to up the anti on my cross trainer.

Because of the knee injury,
repetitive movements really cause me pain and swelling
So what I have done is set the cross trainer to
a cardio workout
with a maximum resistance of 10.

Movement is kind of slow,
I dont do as much bending at the knees
but because the workout is so hard
I am able to burn over 200 calories in a 1/2 hour session!!!

Perfect!!
