{august challenge update}
as presented by michelle at so, i married a mennonite, here is how i did with the WEEK THREE challenge: DEVELOP AN EXERCISE PLAN
1 - Pick a Workout: done...i have a 10-minute morning plan in place
i do sets of 12 for each of these: crunches, push-ups, squats, jumping jacks & leg kicks. i do as many as i can accomplish in about 7-8 minutes. the last 2-3 minutes i use 3lb weights for some arm exercises.
2 - Make it Fun: is she serious??? i have NO idea how to do this :)
3 - Create your Habit: What is the one thing you'll do everyday? this should be #1 above...but i don't do it everyday.
4 - Set a Goal: i would really like to lose 10 pounds by mid-October. but at this rate, it's not going to happen!
So, I did OK on the four goals above...i just haven't done well at implementing the actual exercising!

ReplyDeleteThe exercise I mean!
I think I'm going to join a Zumba class after my 3 day walk. I need something to keep me moving.
I enjoyed reading your report card. You are doing very well!
ReplyDeleteThe exercise has been hard for me too.
I am often more consistent with a goal in mind or a program that goes for a certain number of days.
I recently finished a 90 day program. The '90 day' thing seemed to help me push through. Finishing it felt like a real achievement.
I feel like I should be able to exercise without something like that, but it doesn't seem to happen unless I have very clear intentions and plans.
Thanks for sharing your update.
I'm such a planner - very rarely an implementer. I can plan things to the smallest details, but summoning up the will to follow through - not so much. Keep up the great work!
