Today, the package arrived. I was ready after a great weekend with all kinds of activities, it was time. I made Heather help me with my measurements and take the "before" picture.
After careful consideration...I think this picture is nothing anyone needs to see. The premise behind these videos is tons of cardio that will also strength train using body resistance. I've run a marathon but I was clearly using different muscles in the fit test alone. You do a series of moves every 15 days to track your progress. I look forward to seeing those numbers improve.
I also entered a weight loss challenge with another co-worker who needs to be beat just for bragging rights so that extra motivation will help. Just for fun, I previewed what tomorrow will look like...it's going to hurt. I'm going to be sore and I look forward to it. Really? Look forward to it? I think so. I like pushing myself and I like knowing that I don't have to think about it. I'll check the box on the wall calendar that tells me what to do next and make it happen.
Here's to day one, I did it and I made the plan for tomorrow and when I will do tomorrow's workout. It's around 40 minutes and I've made time for it.
Side note, Max watched us doing the workout and mimicked different moves and even got his breath up a bit. It's pretty cool to be a healthy role model for him.
Ok...Here's the number break down, you might think I'm crazy to post, but eh, we're friends here.
Weight: 159.6
Body Fat: 32.9%
I did all the inches stuff on various parts of the body but I'll just post as they go down.
Yay! Day one down. Here we go!

You are amazing. Way to go to post those numbers. I don't think I could have done that! Who is that co-worker? I can't imagine! Here's to setting goals and making them happen! Love you!
ReplyDeleteI was going to ask you today if you had the DVDs yet. You are inspiring me - ready to order them myself. I'd be happy to get in on the weight loss challenge with you. My goal - 15 pounds by the day school is out. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteSo was there a work out on day one or just the strength test? I can't wait to hear how this goes, you will be in great shape by FOTOG and should pretty much dominate every event.
ReplyDeleteMolls-the workout was the strength test! It was 8 different moves doing as many as I could for one minute plus a warm-up and cool down. Super hard. Today is 40 minutes of mostly cardio. I'll include what types of stuff I'm doing each day. I got to write down all the numbers so it will be fun to see them go up (hopefully) as I get in better shape.
ReplyDeleteKarol-Thank you for your kind words-so sweet to me.
Barb-Bring it!!! You're in!
