Week 4 Recap

Well I did better in some areas then others but, sometimes goals don't always get met.  When that's the case things just get rolled to the next week.  Hopefully you catch up and eventually if nothing else.

    I attended 6 different classes this week so my miles goal were not met. I only made 38.02 miles for my cardio miles this week. 

I attended boxing, power, and kettle bells classes.  I also took a line dancing, Zumba, and Mixxedfit dancing classes as well.

I did slide in some time with weights and cardio but because I didn't physically get on machine I don't have the miles even though maybe some of those dance classes could have been miles by the time class was over.

I did pretty good with adding an extra water to my routine this week.  By the time summer gets here in should be in a good routine for keeping myself hydrated.

I did meal plan on Monday.  A chicken bowl with carrots, salsa, black beans, corn, couscous and some cheese.

I didn't style my daughters hair other then a braid.  So I'll give myself a half point for that.  I wanted to try something different.

I made a snack/dessert.  It can be eaten anytime so it falls into each category.

Chocolate Peanut butter Fudge!

I was happy picky eaters even liked it. P.S. it had banana in it too!

New recipe goes to the pork lion I made in the crockpot!

I did clean my fridge too. So I'm happy with that.  Now I need to find another spot to clean that I have neglected.

I hope everyone had a good week.  Take tomorrow off to prepare for a new week!

Fitness Plan II

  Why do you want to workout?  Working out doesn't need to be done at the gym.  You don't need to spend a lot of money on the healthy choice.  Sneakers is definitely a necessity and maybe a water bottle.  You don't need to run out and get exercise videos, look it up on cable, or the lovely Internet is bountiful.  You tube, Google search and pinterest all have videos and exercises for target areas and your choice of levels of intensity.  I even follow a couple ladies on Facebook.

  The whole process helps when you have a reason why you want to workout.  It could be for yourself, your family, health reasons but I think it has to definitely be more than just because.  This reason is your number one priority before your objective to loose 5lbs or 10 inches.

  I said don't splurge on a membership be it $10 or $50 until you are focused and dedicated.  After a month or maybe 2 weeks of regularly working out then reward yourself with a facility if that's what you really want but it's not necessary.  Sneakers and a water bottle are all you need.

  Lastly,  your workout doesn't have to be indepth.  Results will be visible with dedicated regular workouts.  That's all you need. Get moving and things will happen.  I promise you this.  Do you know why?  Because most likely you have never worked out before, stuck with it before, or been focused.

  Don't know where to start.  Walk! If walking is too easy jog or fast walk, and if that's too easy run!  Do this for a mile and a half! Focus on distance not speed.  We will work on beating the speed later, when your looking for a challenge or it becomes to easy for you. Move 5 days this week.  You pick the days.  Write it down, choose am or pm.  No excuses!!  4 days a week through in some exercises in addition to your cardio.
Jumping rope for a minute, 25 jumping jacks, 30 second plank, 30 mountain climbers, 10 walking lunges, 5 squats, high knees for 30 seconds, butt kicks 30 seconds and REPEAT! 3 times total!!

Get moving!  Stay focused!  I know you can do it, you just have to prove it to yourself!
