This week, together, let's take a look at the progress that we are making on our short term goals. Is there progress? Have we taken a few steps back? Is work getting in the way? Have we been sick? Is the economy forcing us to cut down on yours truly? Are we just too tired to make it up the stairs to the gym?
The beauty of today is that tomorrow has passed us by. So today, what can we do to help us succeed on our short term goals? Even if we cannot get a workout in, can we improve one lifestyle habit that will make us feel healthy, fit and successful?
Nutrition will contribute to your overall energy, especially our intake of water. This week I am going to drink more water, a constant struggle I am improving on. Also, I have greatly limited my sugar intake and I feel more lively and my tummy is starting to like me much better. With a great deal of sugar, my tummy becomes loud and uncomfortable. (wink, wink)
Small steps we might have to take. And that is just fine! Incremental changes create monumental movements. What is your small change that will move you greatly?
Your exercise challenge:
Take at least one class this upcoming week. Spin, pump, dynamic strength, sculpt, kick boxing, yoga. It will count as one of your workouts.
Weights:
2-5 workouts
*Do 20 crunches in between exercises. Are you up to the challenge?
*Increase the weight of one exercise.
*Take advantage of how easy and simple the free motion machines are.
Cardio:
2-4 workouts
*Your challenge:
Walk on the treadmill between 3.0 and 3.5. Go for 30 minutes. Raise the incline up every 1 minute either by .5 or 1.0. Get to 15 minutes and then do the same to go down. This is crazy and my bum feels thinner because of it.
*Another challenge:
20 jumping jacks
20 squats
12 push ups on knees or legs
12 Triceps dips
30 second plank hold
Let me know if I can help you with anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please, I am right here for you.
Have a good week.
