So I apologise to all my fans and followers ** silence ** and promise that I’ll keep you up to date with my progress from now on :)
Well this has been a challenging week for a few reasons which included being on OOH’s standby and basically working my legs 5 days out of the 6. So the table below shows the workouts that I’ve completed this week:
So next week the workouts will change places but the cardio days will remain the same as the table shows below:
I’ve worked really hard this week and I can see a dramatic difference already with regards to how my clothes fit and my energy levels have just increased so much. Most people think that the more exercise you do the more knackered you will become but that’s not the case. It is in fact the exact opposite because exercise speeds up blood flow and your breathing rate, which in turn brings more oxygen to your heart, lungs, brain and muscles. So in essence less oxygen makes you tired and more oxygen (to a certain degree) perks you up. I’ve also found that these workouts also have a calming effect. Which has had a knock on effect in my work environment and because I workout first thing in a morning it peps me up physically and mentally for the day. So I’m sat at my desk buzzing when everyone else looks like death warmed up supping their morning coffee.
I can see why people get addicted to the natural high you get after a workout and that’s one of the reasons why I think I won’t have a problem keeping this program up for the full 12 weeks. The one thing I do have to watch out for is the boredom factor which I’m going to get round by changing my workouts every 4 weeks to keep it interesting.
I’ve also managed 23 days without any alcohol passing my lips which to the honest hasn’t been a struggle but I’ve not been out since the New Year so not had a problem. So the real test will be tonight when I’m out for a couple’s evening. So the meal won’t be a problem but I will be in Sheffield town centre quite early and everyone will be drinking apart from me but I’m not worried and will probably save a fortune.
Right see you all next week.
