Then, Friday will either be an easy run or an upper body lifting day. Saturday will be a long run, and then Sunday will be rest or an easy day. So, I often work out twice 4x per week. I rarely run 2x per day more than twice per week though. The other doubles are lifting and running.<BR/><BR/>The upper body work is part of an overall weight program that I do. I think that endurance work is catabolic enough that I'll never have to worry about getting too huge. Overall, I find that I lose body fat more easily when I'm lifting hard, doing interval work, and not drinking alcohol. I know you have that third one covered, but I don't yet. So, I focus a lot of my time on the first two.<BR/><BR/>There will be no swimsuit issue for me. Trust me on that.Damonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16393751713576765589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-124160833070692205.post-8772200318046686092008-09-16T09:42:00.000-04:002008-09-16T09:42:00.000-04:00How often do you do two-a-days?
