Goals

These are my health goals as of this date. On the weekend I relax as in work I can control my water intake and diet much easier.

• Run 4 times a week
• Go to the Gym once a week
• Drink 3 Litres of water a day
• Eat sensibly at least 4 times a week

Many Months Later

Like my fitness plan this BLOG sat on its backside for nearly 4 months before I revisited it. Need to get more active on it. As it is a diary of a failed fitness campaign.

Anyway, last week I started again (115th time). What predicated this was the well known disease, Pants-wont-fit e.g. when I tried on some of my pants they wouldn't fit. Jeans are pretty forgiving but Chinos just say now way.

Let me clarify here, I am not a chubby overweight looking guy. By no means!! But I have what a lot of males of my age have and that is that little circle of fat around the waist. I can suck it in and make it look better with the best of you but it tends to give me back pain - grin -.

So last week I kicked the process in and did the following, ran Mon,Tue,Thur and went to the gym Wed. This is a red letter day for me as I worked out 4 days in one week. Each of the runs were in the 30 minute time frame but the difference is that I did it.

Down side is that I then took a 4 day break till last night again. I however broke through a mental block and ran when my mind was telling me to go home and work out with the remote control.

35 minutes later I had run, felt better, had a clearer head and overall was feeling 100% happier with the whole fitness situation. This was unusual as usually my mind wins and I give in and do nothing.

As always the secret is whether I can keep it up. Need to set some goals. See next entry.
