Get Fit Friday







This Week's Goal: Determine 5 ways to measure progress for the next 12 weeks and make a plan to improve those things in that time. Make a plan to work the processed foods out of my diet and be eating clean in 12 weeks. 

Did I meet it? yes
60 second squat: 30 lbs 30 reps
60 second lunges: 30 lbs 18 reps
60 second push up: 4
Wall Sit: 1:20
Plank: 1:05
Mile: 13:01
Diastasis Recti: 3

1 rep max:
Leg Press: 250 lbs
Chest Press: 70 lbs
Compound Row: 105 lbs
Lat Pull-down: 110 lbs

I'll measure these again the first week of November. I'll record my basic workouts over the next few weeks.

The only way I know to get the processed foods out of my diet is to do it. My friend Laura says "The only way to slay the sugar dragon is to starve it." In other words... the only way to curb sugar cravings is to stop eating sugar. While I would love to say I am going to do this cold turkey, I have not sold myself on it yet. There are people i my life who have such control that they can do whatever they decide to do. I want to be able to just stop eating sugar. Is that possible????

Biggest Accomplishment: getting in the gym 5 times without the "requirement" set by PLS training. Deciding for myself what I want to improve over the next 12 weeks and formulating a plan to do it.

I'm feeling... pretty peaceful overall. I feel growth in several areas and growth is a bit uncomfortable, but all in all, it's good.

Next week's Goal: 3 MORNINGS in the gym; 60 oz water daily













It's Important to me because: I can't seem to be consistent with my water intake and I KNOW I will feel better if I am properly hydrated. Morning workouts feel good. It gets me up and going.

What I need to succeed: Stop looking for results. Just follow the plan.
