Okay I'm jumping in a few days late but full steam ahead.
Goals for October: lose ten pounds (I'm just getting started back on weight loss so this isn't a too far-fetched goal)
walk 20 miles or get 800 minutes of exercise
Follow a week-by-week plan.
So for this week, 10/5:
Monday-getting started again with 15-20 min cardio, touch on full body strength training, ab planks, stretch
Tuesday-yoga, ab planks
Wednesday-strength train arms, work in light springs to 25 min cardio, ab planks, stretch
Thursday-yoga, ab planks
Friday-yoga or hiking
Saturday-off
Sunday-25 minutes cardo, yoga, ab planks
Yoga doesn't burn a whole lot of calories but I saw immediate results around my waist line last time using a combination of yoga and planks, so I'm going to see where that goes. Not to mention I love love yoga.
The weekends are hard for me to get exercise in because I'm out of town with my boyfriend, and I work all day Saturday usually, but the bf is wayyy active, bikes or walks everywhere, so really I'm making excuses because he'd love to go along with me on walks and bike rides. I'll probably only try to get some real exercise in on the weekends if I skip a day during the week though.
Anyway, good luck to all.
