This week’s plan
So, the holiday weekend is over but it’s still a holiday month! The social events are stacked up which means there are plenty of opportunities for self-indulgence. Knowing that I won’t be a model of perfection with my diet this month, I’m going to set some simple goals for the work week.
I am able to eat clean from breakfast to dinner hands down. However, since I historically have problems with snacking post-dinner, that’s going to be my focus this week. So, in short, my week’s goal is to avoid alcoholic beverages and junk-snacking during the evenings this week.
Regarding my workouts, I have been doing really good – almost too good. Yesterday, at the gym (back day) I felt burned-out. I don’t know if it is because I over-trained this week, or the 3 days of Xmas preparations (cut down Xmas trees for the family, put lights on the house, etc.), or the take-out Chinese food from Saturday night or all of the above (most likely).
Today is my cardio day. I’ll pass on the morning cardio session which is usually shorter and perform a longer cardio session in the evening. Below are my planned workouts for the week. I’m going to try to fit in Ab work everyday with my cardio, we’ll see how it goes.
Monday AM: Get up early but don’t go in (getting up early on Monday puts me on track for the week).
Monday PM: 1hr Cardio, Abs (goal: 40 min on treadmill plus other cardio)
Tuesday AM: 30-40 min cardio, Abs
Tuesday PM: Legs
Wednesday AM: 30-40 min cardio, Abs
Wednesday PM: Chest – some light triceps
Thursday AM: 30-40 min cardio, Abs
Thursday PM: Arms – biceps/triceps
Friday AM: 30-40 min cardio, Abs
Friday PM: Shoulders
Saturday: OFF – way too busy this day!
Sunday: Back, biceps & Abs
