My weekly is basically the same every week:
Monday: one hour full body strength training (under the guidance of a Fitness Professional, NOT a just a Trainer) and 45 minutes of cardio drumming
Tuesday: 30 minutes on an Arc Trainer (2* incline, first 15 minutes with a resistance of 20, next 7.5 minutes resistance of 2, final 7.5 minutes resistance of 25 with the las minute being an all out sprint)
Wednesday: Strength training and 45 minutes of cardio drumming
Thursday: see tuesday
Friday: Strength training, 45 minutes of low impact aerobics.
Saturday or Sunday 30 minutes of circuit training and 20 minutes of cardio at Planet Fitness.
Saturday or Sunday rest.
Our gym challenge is 6 weeks long and gives points for various fitness activities. For instance we get "points" for doing various exercises outside of our normal workout, for instance a certain number of daily "steps" or doing 20 minutes of extra cardio. There are prizes based on the number of points accumulated during the 6 weeks. Watching your intake will and doing these programs WILL lead to weight loss. For me, logging what I'm eating on myfitnesspal.com keeps me aware of my intake so while I have bad days, I can minimize them. It is tough though, hang in there and do your best.
i am truly not sure if I can train yet.
I am just doing a lot of walking. I have no voice still and was put on steroids for 3 days which has not helped and have bronchitis. sleeping is crap.
I am hoping to maybe get in the pool wed and see if i can swim for half an hour.
Happy training everyone
Happy December and Happy Hanukkah to those celebrating!
I'm in the weeds right now at work and have my first national points tournament of the season coming up in 12 days. (Who me, counting?) Fenced a small local tournament today - finished 3rd. Have another event next weekend just to tune up - not going to try to set the world on fire, but just get used to fencing in a larger venue with more noise.
Monday - Fence 2.5 hours
Tuesday - Cross fit 1 hour
Wedensday -Fence 2 hours
THursday - Crossfit
Friday - Pilates 1 hour
Saturday - fence 3 hours
Sunday - well deserved rest.
Keep on losing!

We do the 2 mile run after the yoga..around 6 am or so..normally at a 10:15 pace or so..pretty mild..nothing too fast..
