This week was OK. I really need to plan my time better though to make sure I fit in 30 min. of daily workouts.
I’m thinking I need a workout accountability partner. I have business accountability partners and it helps push myself every week so that might be something I’ll look into. Do you have a fitness accountability partner?
My favorite workout this week was obviously spinning. I think I want to do some HIIT workouts this week and some boxing.
Here are my workouts:
Monday-Day off
Tuesday-
*Shoveling snow
Time: 30 min.
Calories burned: 440
Wednesday-
*Spinning
Time: 30 min.
Calories burned: 447
Thursday- Day off
Friday-
*Cardio & Weights
Time: 30 min.
Calories burned: 473
Today’s workout was a mix of dancing, step with weights, squats, treadmill run/walk intervals, etc.
Saturday-Sunday-
No real workouts mainly because I didn’t plan my time wisely but I did walk a lot on Saturday when we shopped. And today was a busy day around the house, up and down stairs, cleaning, moving/lifting things, etc.
My goal for this coming week: Workout at least 5 days & stick to the meal plan
What are your goals for the week?
My goal this week is to get to the gym at least 5 times this week. My normal is 3-4, but I think I can make it 5 days. This will be a challenge, because my husband is starting back at his gym tomorrow. I’ve been use to having my mornings to myself & now I’ll have to work around him. Wish me luck
Great goal! Good luck. Hope we both have an awesome week.
thanks, you too
Hi Angie, It may not sound like a hectic fitness week for you but to me that would be so hard to get to. I am just on the path towards working out 3 times per week but wanting to burn 1000 calories per time. Any advice is welcome.
3 days a week should be an easy goal to reach however if you are just starting out hitting 1000 calories per workout might be a stretch. The best way I know to reach that many calories per workout is an hour + long spinning/cycling class.
Another workout that is good is HIIT (high intensity interval training) but I would not recommend that right away for a beginner.
Thank you for the advice angie, I will research the HIIT workout now. I think its best to start with 3×30 min workouts and review it after a week or so. Many thanks
I wanted to start a workout especially during the long winter months we have here so my friend and I teamed up. I helps to have a partner. You stay accountable. Has worked for us.
Glad you have a workout partner. I definitely need to find myself a good fit.
We’ve had a few nice days and have gotten out and walked. Felt WONDERFUL!!! Really getting Spring fever.
