Hey All,
Each week I’ll be posting an update on the previous week’s exercises.
This is the timetable I devised for myself to get fit and increase my activity each week over the next few months. You should see the last week! It’s almost unbelievable! In fact, I’ve taken a photo and posted it as the last pic on this post. It might change, I’ll see as I’m going.
I would like to say at this point that my target is to be able to get up Snowdon. I wouldn’t be pushing myself so hard if it wasn’t for this target. For general fitness, please remember according to NHS (which is the healthy “bible” I use) it is recommended that we do a minimum of 2.5 hours of moderate activity or 1.25 hours of vigorous activity per week and two resistance/strength sessions per week.
I’ve always written lists for myself, for all manner of things, including exercise. And then put those lists to one side and forgotten they exist 😀
As the food side of my healthy change programme has been helped by writing all about it, I’m hoping posting about my exercising will also keep me motivated and accountable.
So, here we go, here’s my first week:
So, disappointed that on week one I failed to hit my target, especially as I haven’t done anything today! ARGHH! Tomorrow. Tomorrow will be the day for more exercise.
The next photo is showing where I’m hoping I’ll be by the end of these coming months.
The hill I’m hoping to get up and down is nasty. Or maybe it just is for a lazy arsed sod like me. It goes up and increasingly steep gradients, and each increase coincides with a bend in the path, which you can’t see round because the hill is actually a car-width path between fields and housing with hedges either side. I call it “The Bitch”.
Right, that’s it, tomorrow will be the day to start serious efforts to hit this week’s target!
Trying to lose!
