The challenge has been issued- a 10k in early April that I can't walk b/c I am too competitive. So I have to start building endurance. Last week I did a baseline run- it took 40 minutes to run 3 miles. I need a training schedule. Monday- jog 40 minutes Tuesday- cardio-sculpt class Wednesday- jog 40 minutes or some pilates/ jog combo Thursday- cardio-sculpt class Friday- jog 40 minutes Saturday- nada Sunday- nada |

Ok- feeling discouraged. I found a 10k training schedule- and have been following it for a couple weeks. Now it is to the point where I need to jog farther than I have before and I have lost my motivation- to the point that today I laid on my sofa and ate 1/4 bag of Hershey's Special Dark chocolate chips. I was suppossed to go run it on Friday- well I went drinking Thursday night instead. And Saturday it was too cold, and today- well I just flat out didn't feel like it- so now I feel guilty and somewhat nauseous after all the chocolate. Here is my dilemma. Last week I noticed my body tightening up from the jogging and exercise classes- the pooch flatter than it has been in years. I started to feel sexy. And now I am cramming chocolate in my mouth to stop it. It doesn't make sense. I need some support. |

The last half of the week seems to be my problem . This past week: Monday: jogged 1.2 miles and elliptical for 3.5 miles Tuesday: cardio sculpt class 1 hour Wednesday: pilates 1 hour And nothing else so far and it's Sunday. Now Thursday I needed to rest. And Friday I was hungover. And the weekends- forget it. So I guess the solution is to stop going out on Thursday nights- or at least have a definite leave the bar/restaurant time that I abide by. This week I will try to going out and see if it works- of course I won't be able to go to the gym on Friday anyway b/c I work out of town that day. UUGGHH! |

Wow hun-- I see where your problem is... Ask a trainer where you do pilates; you should allways have a day of rest, or much lighter workouts in between big cardio workouts or weights!-- you are over stressing your body early in the week, and it "gives up!" Do upper body on different days than lower body, or do Mon-Weds-Fri full-body workouts, then just go for a 30 minute walk on Tues-Thurs-Sat.. (or similar) and have One Day a week as a rest day. Every time you work out, you make tiny microscopic tears in your muscle fibers-- it takes about 48 hours for your body to repair them--but when it does- it increases the size of that fiber--thus, builting muscle... No rest= No repair = Slower Muscle building = slower weight loss! Don't over-do, But keep up the good work! LZ |

Hey there,
The walking tapes that I do are with Leslie Sansone (Walk Away the Pounds) and Denise Austin. They are actually quit fun and are low impact.
You basically walk in place, kick, and do knee lifts. The tapes are great for a low impact exercise. They are also great if you don't feel like jumping around or doing a high impact workout!

Monday 2/20/06 Last Week Plan & Results: Monday: 2 miles and abs: Skipped, but moved some furniture Tuesday: cardio/sculpt: DONE Wednesday: pilates: DONE Thursday: cardio/sculpt: Skipped, but moved some furniture Friday: rest: 3.67 miles in woods w/ Remy Saturday: rest Sunday: rest David is going out of town on Friday- so I will have to be careful to plan things out so I am not watching LIFETIME movies and eating raw cookie dough all weekend!: No cookie dough, but a strawberry short cake/ brownie/ice cream this Monday afternoon. This Week Plan: I need to get back on track for the 10k- even if it means just making sure I can walk it. Also, I am going to be more aware of my food choices- and try to enjoy the "bad" foods when I indulge rather than shove them down my throat, and control my portion size. I do not have to clean my plate! Monday: 2.07 miles elliptical/ 2.34 miles walk/jog on treadmill: DONE, but major dessert disaster afternoon Tuesday: cardio/sculpt Wednesday: pilates Thursday: cardio/sculpt Friday: rest Saturday: 4 miles |
