Couch to 5K (C25K)

c25k is a fitness app for smart phones that is available for download at the price of £2.00 (may vary).
Once started up, one page gives lists and demonstrations of the stretches you should do before doing your workout, these include:
  1. kneeling Hip-
  2. back stretch
  3. cat stretch
  4. hamstring grab
  5. hamstrings – glute
  6. hamstrings – passive
  7. hip – flexors
  8. kneeling hip flexors
  9. lower back twist
  10. prone – abdominal
  11. seated torso twist
  12. standing gastroc
  13. standing hamstring
  14. standing inner thigh
  15. standing quadricep
and the actual workout consists of a five minute warm up, alternations of walking for 90 seconds and 60 seconds of running for a total of 20 mins and then a 5 min cool down.
You can do the workout 3 times a day for 9 weeks and this will at the least get you running round in the privacy of your home at the least.
I will be starting the c25k on the 2nd of may 2013. posts will be uploaded after every completed session, under the diet or other exercise plan I will be doing at the time.
