Day 22: Tired.... Just Sooooo Tired

I have another 6 more days till my next days off. It can't come soon enough. I feel so tired physically. All I do is wake up, go to work, come home, workout and sleep. And then I do that all over again. I think the continuous cycle has me slacking in my workouts this week. I keep pressing "Play" cause I want to finish the challenge. I have another five short weeks.

I did really good today, until I got to dinner. I think I was still craving some things that I didn't get at lunch so I wanted some for dinner. I shouldn't have been so bad lol. I was good for the most part of the day until the end. I'll have to really push myself in today's workout to get some of these calories off today. That'll be a challenge after today. But I'm told the best time to workout is when I'm exhausted and when I allow myself like a cheat meal so I have something to burn? LOL I don't know if that's true, but I'll just go with it.

Before bed tonight: Combat 60. We'll see how I do with gloves on. I can feel the discouragement in my kicks for that one segment already lol (I so need more Basics work). However, last night's workout left my butt sore today so that was awesome! That makes me want to do 60 tonight. And it makes me want to do the squat challenge that's going on in one of the groups I'm in, but I think that needs to happen after the abs challenge I'm going to start next Saturday.

Something you all should know, I hate sit-ups and crunches and planks. Especially when done on the floor, but I think with all this change I'm trying to do, I should give it a try. It's a 30 day challenge so it's feasible. Although, I don't know if I can do as many as it says on day 1 lol. We'll just try and hope for the best.

Well I'm off to workout on my Saturday night. I'll let you all know how it goes.

Back Again

Hello again! It's been a while since I've been on here. Mainly because of life's ups and downs. I've been feeling really low about myself and decided I needed to change. Hopefully it takes, or more like hopefully I'm ready to sustain change. What's changed for me? I'm at a professional part in my life where I've been feeling stagnant and want more or change or both. And personally, I got to the point where I got too comfortable and just stopped focusing on my health goals/gains cause my partner was okay with me the way I was/am. Which, I know, is super awesome and fortunate but I didn't like the run down and weighed down feeling I had when literally and figuratively. So, for the last few months, I've been doing a dietbet, which I'm not great at. I feel like I always get close to my goal but never get there, which would've made me feel down in the past. But now, I just take it and move onto the next month and hope I make it then. Alo...

BEASTing Out

Well, I finally did it. I took the plunge into Body Beast. I like to lift so I thought this would be fun. And I'm sure it is fun if I didn't feel like puking during the workout. It's been a while since I've had this happen. I thought I gave myself enough time in between dinner and my workout. Maybe not? Or was I just working out that hard? I didn't feel like I did. It was a Build: Chest/Tri's day so I used light weights for like all my sets since I tweaked my left shoulder and didn't want to train one side heavy than the other cause I'd like some symmetry. Either way, I'm gonna keep on. Tomorrow is Legs and I do love a leg day, even if I hate it the next two days after. I'm still doing the Les Mills classes and videos. I did Body Pump this week. I should've taken that class as a sign to go easy on my shoulder now that I think about. I'll probably do some Combat or Sh'bam again for some cardio to go along with my Body Beast program. ...

Derailed In December And Still Off The Rails

So in December, I had every intention of being better, but it hasn't been going exactly as planned. It's actually been kinda bad. I've been a bit derailed. Maybe it was the holidays. Maybe it’s because I’ve been a little bit down and depressed. Maybe it was the weather of the season. Maybe it was and is all the working I've been doing. Actually, now that I think about it, it's all of the above on top and being in school this semester that’s in my way. My workouts have been sporadic. Work has me drained more than usual. And being anemic and having poor nutrition as of late hasn't helped either. I don’t sleep as much because I work too much. One job has me up at 3 a.m. And the other job, when I work, has me up till like 11 p.m. If I schedule my workouts before work, then I’ll be up at like 2 a.m. I need to find a balance and change. So to kind of start to change off things, I took on a trainer. It was going alright I suppose until like last month. I starte...
