Something New!
A regular part of my day is to hit the gym hard for 2 hours.
Usually?
Up early (define early! hah!) Sometimes early is 4 am sometimes 5, sometimes as late as 9 am, depending on what I had going the night before.
Usually am in bed no later than 930 pm. No caffeine addiction, here, have never been a coffee drinker, so, it's usually 8 oz of plain cold water or, if I prepped it the night before, lemon water.
Many people who have a regular fitness habit may know the frustration of the "plateau". Sometimes, when trying to reach a certain fitness goal, the body gets used to the usual routine.
A plateau (all work, no progress) is the body saying, "Time to change it up." Upon which, I change it up! As long as my heart rate is above 120 bpm, as long as my T-shirt is getting soaked, it's good!
2 hours goes by rapidly when I'm enjoying my time, listening to music I enjoy.
Recent change up (September 8, 2015):
3 minute plank on elbows
1 mile on eliptical
3 minute plank on hands
1 mile on eliptical
45 minute strength training class
1 mile or more on eliptical (if given the choice & time permits, I go 3 miles or more at the end) The feeling of getting stronger is the biggest reward of all.
Got fitness?
Getcha some!
Love and luck to you!
