The beginning…
At some time soon, I should get a body fat test done to have a baseline set with which to work with. Having just returned from vacation to sunny San Diego though, it’s as good a time as any to begin my way towards my fitness goals. I honestly think my lift stats aren’t accurate, but I’ll find out tomorrow. My main idea is to have a 30min cardio workout first thing in the morning each day this week, then follow up with a mid or late day lift starting with back/bi tomorrow, chest/tri on Tuesday, and legs/abs on Wed with a Thursday workout wherever I feel that I’m a little lacking. Friday would be two cardio (run/bike), Saturday cardio morning with a little circuit training for full body in the afternoon. Sunday would be off. If I don’t feel burned out after that, I’ll continue on the same routine, if not, I’ll cut back to lifting and just make Fridays/Saturdays cardio with Sunday off.
I know the two-a-days may be a bit sadistic to start off with, but its in my personality that if I tell myself I want to do it and let myself come up with excuses not to, then I’ll slowly whittle it back to maybe a workout or two a week. This shouldn’t be a problem because I’ve done this in the past with CrossCounty in high school where we’d run before school, then usually a 7mi run in the afternoon or on Tues/Thur we had a short 4mi run with some lifting afterwards. Besides, I’d like to see some descernable results before Christmas and stay ahead of all those with the new years 2 week resolution.
