The basement is usually at 55 when I start and set thermo to 60. So no over heating. KB

This is my first training plan for winter in years. Only because I discovered GCN. So I might be over doing it ?? Give me a suggestion . Maybe a 20, 30 and 40, alternating days. Than you. KB

After doing a little research, looks like I should be doing HIITs 3-4 days a week with a break in between. . So, looks like I'll cut back, before I kill myself.

I think I'll back it down to 3x days a week. Any other ideas are greatly welcome. KB
