What's your september exercise plan?
As august wraps up I'm ready to be rid of it and get into September and hopefully make a huge change in the waist band. So I decided to do 30 day shred I have done this before (for like 2 weeks ) but I want to do it this month and mix it with walking 2-4 miles. I decided to not go to the gym this month with the shred since its quite exhausting on it's own. Of course I plan to follow my eating habits. Everyone please share!

I'm ready to start September too, my weight has been up and down like a rollercoaster and I'm ready to get serious. I'll keep up with my 5K training and start adding swimming in there too, as I'm planning to do a short-track triathalon in February. :) Also, it's HIKING SEASON :carrot: so I'm excited to get back out on the trail. :)
Definitely getting a reign on the eating and going back to WW plan of writing everything down/altered calorie counting. It made such a difference in what I put in my mouth knowing I had to write it down afterward. :) Not to mention seeing the caloric (PointsPlus) value of everything! Also curious about everyone's plans as well. :) |
I too am going to do the 30DS, plus maybe some cardio outside or at the gym. I actually started the shred yesterday.
|
I'm planning on continuing to increase my running... to the 20-30 mile a week range... I'm looking forward to being out on some trails this fall... It's one of my favorite times of the year for running...

my fiance and i are going to start the couch to 5 k! We're also going to start badminton lessons and swimming.
|
I'm starting C25k too! I can't wait for September to start
|
School starts which means I will be back at the University everyday. I planned my schedule so each day I start at the same time in order for me to have a consistent schedule unlike last semester where one day I would start at 8am and the next day not until 2:40 - aka lots of sleeping in and throwing off my schedule for the following day!
With the new schedule, I will be able to go to the gym every morning before class since I will already be awake (If I have a consistent schedule, I naturally wake up around the same time daily). I will have ZERO excuses not to go since I already have to go to school anyways, and since the gym is in the same building, why not go an hour earlier? |
I started the C25K two days ago! My brisk walks are not really challenging anymore, so I'll be alternating a long brisk walk with the jog/walk during the week. Also I should start strength training - why oh why is it so hard for me to get going on that?!
|
Awesome I need to look into this c25k thing... I'd like to walk a cretin amount of miles in September
|
I've got a bike race in mid September and then a triathlon at the end, so my September will be full of training.
I'll bike 3-4 days a week, (doing shorter 10 miles a day and then incorporating one long ride a week where I do 30+ miles to prep for the bike race) and swim 2 times a week and then after the bike race I'll do some brick training (bike 15-20 miles and the run 3'ish.) Phew. I need a nap now. |
With going back to college and having a cousin stay with me from the 7th until the 26th, I really don't know what it is going to play out like. I've decided to work as much as I can from now until to the 6th of September. (She arrives early the 7th) This won't be a problem since I won't be at college so if I just workout as much as I can during this week. Same goes from the 26th until the 30th. My aims for when she isn't here is 3 mile walking, weights and step aerobics which is what I do with my exercise plan at the moment. While she is here, I'll switch back to my 2 mile walk which takes less time and even if I get out every couple of days, I will be happy enough. As long as I don't go the entire two and a half weeks doing nothing, I will be extremely happy. Nights when we are just sitting around my house, I could take out the weights for 20 minutes and even get something in. It's only a small amount but it will count more than doing nothing. She wants to do a lot of tourist things so that will require walking around the city and my town for hours so that will be brilliant also. I'll just make sure I continue to watch my foods and don't go crazy. Come October, I'll be able to make a much better and structured routine around college.

I have high hopes for September, too. I haven't been to my gym in forever. Even though I've lost most of my weight through calorie counting, I really want to start strength training. I bought a yoga mat, and I'd like to get some of that going here at home.
Someone up there mentioned hiking season :D I'd like to start taking on activities like that, too. The glorious days where both my boyfriend and I both have off from work, I would like to do something other than go out to eat. To have an activity to do together would be both fun and a calorie burn. Hiking, roller skating, maybe canoe or kayaking. August has remained completely neutral for me..I've gone down a few lbs and then right back up..but at the end of the day..no change. :\ |
I have a Tough Mudder on September 8th, but other than that I plan to do Zumba when I'm stressed, long "urban hikes" around DC when my pup is crazy (~4 miles), HITT for 20 minutes when I'm pressed for time, and heavy weightlifting at least 2x a week!
|
I'd like to continue increasing my weights in the weight room and miles on the treadmill/bike path, check out some Gold's Gym classes since I bought the Groupon, and go on some beautiful mountain hikes since I live an hour away from the Adirondacks. August has been a great month for me exercise-wise, very few sedentary days and I am officially totally used to getting up and going to the gym before work.

I started the c25k today, this will go hand in hand with 30 day shred
