Re: Wes's Workout Log
It's still good exercise. It's hard to believe, but with all things being equal, walking burns more calories, and it take more effort from your muscles than running.
In running, you'd want your body to move as efficiently as possible. With the elasticity of your muscles and tendons, running doesn't demand as much effort as walking does, nor does running faster necessarily mean that you'll burn more calories covering the same distance.
Walking on the other hand, doesn't make full use of our momentum. It takes more energy to go fast while keeping yourself from breaking into a run.
It's a good add-on if you need something extra to help burn fat. More importantly, knowing this should bring to question the point of why you're doing an exercise, or in other words what you want to get out of it.
It's just some things to think about. By the way what kind of loads are you using for your weight training at this point?

You should try to get out to a club wes, I bet you'd enjoy it. Even if time only allows once a week or so.

Re: Wes's Workout Log
Ya I ride my bike all over the place. I got a BMX and a mountain bike, but mainly ride the BMX. To boxing and back is likely 15 miles, plus add on another 10 or so a day atleast. I don`t even consider it cardio, although I suppose it is and especially when I`m in a hurry.
For someone starting out though who likely has shit cardio...a bike is probably a good start, much like a fast-paced walk or light jog.
When you get yourself to the point that you can do full out tabatas and hill sprints, it is hard to really consider other forms as a cardio workout, plus add the time factor. Getting better results both aerobic and anaerobically in about 15 mins as opposed to 1-2 hrs is hard to wrap ones head around to even go jog, or bike for cardio.
Bearing that in mind, you don`t get good cardio by jumping head first in the deep end either. I wouldn`t recommend to anyone who hasn`t built up and worked at cardio, to do some of the best results oriented things unless they were prepared first by working their way to it.
