Thanks I did get the OK from my doctor I live in the Caribbean a small island call Barbados so we don't have a wide amount of sports shops here but I will go on Amazon and order the heart rate monitor thanks a lot I would also check out the peak 8 thanks again
You're on the right track! Are you doing strength training first and cardio last?
Do the The Peak 8 routine it will quickly raise your heart rate 8 times for very short bursts, with a cooling down period in between. Ideally you’ll be sprinting or cycling full throttle for 30 seconds with a 90 second cool down in between each outburst.
This is the fastest way to lose fat and build muscle in the body. Peak 8 actually stimulates the growth hormone in the body. I encourage you to visit Dr Mercola’s site to learn more about Peak 8 fitness because I personally feel that it is one of the best ways to exercise, especially considering the speed at which you can lose fat and build muscle.
I highly recommend you read this article and watch the videos on the page. It will give you all the information you need to know about Peak 8 – Flood Your Body With This “Youth Hormone” In Just 20 Minutes
What you eat after Peak 8 training does matter
It’s recommended that you do not eat sugar or carbohydrate for 2 hours after the Peak 8 exercise because these foods can impact the release of the growth hormone in the body. The links are

Figure your heart rate by this formula
The formula involves using your maximum heart rate (MHR) minus your age to come up with a target heart rate range (which is a percentage of your MHR). Staying within this range will help you work most effectively during your cardio workouts.
Subtract your age from 220 the number left is your maximum heart rate.
you want to stay between 65% - 85% of your maximum heart rate
You burn 30 percent more fat from doing cardio after a weights session as opposed to cardio on its own.
I suggest going to a sports shop and buying a heart rate monitor and an
interval timer about $20. heart rate monitor about $30
Get the OK from your doctor first before doing any exercise!!
