- OK, so that was one hell of a workout, it actually took me a little over an hour, it took 70mins, I did take a pretty big break between my last set of Leg Presses and starting my calf raises, at least 10mins, so I still could have done it in an hour, just needed to breathe, LoL. I will go back today and do my 1hr of cardio when I get off of work at 8pm, have not missed a day yet, doing awesome with it and it is really starting to show finally! Oh, as usual 60mins of treadmill 15.0 degree incline at 3.5miles an hour, slow steady and sweating my balls off!!!
