Week 4

DOC — Fri, 09 May 2008 04:30:52 GMT

So, in case no one got it, I was remiss in posting week 3 so I just wrote how I was feeling. My body feels like it's been in shock, but surprisingly as much as I've been bitching about how f'ing hard week 3 and week 4 have been, I'm actually through it. I had so much energy when I got home from my workday and WORKOUT, that I felt like going on another longer aerobic run, but it was too late.

All week I've been complaining about Week 4, and here I am going through it. I'm about 10 pounds lighter than I was when I started, but I honestly have about 20 pounds that I should lose to consider myself healthy. Ugh. It hurts me to even write that. I was on a nutrition plan, but when I went to Ft. Bragg, I ate unhealthily. I think FAI should develop a nutrition plan to supplement what we're doing with this program, but maybe it's the wrong program. Anyway, a nutrition plan would be great. I've found myself struggling this week to eat healthy, or have salads, or not have a ton of Chinese food at lunch--WHICH is exactly why i'm usually not super-motivated to do the workouts in the evening. I think I'll hit my stride Saturday morning, when I have a day to rest off the TRX and I'll be able to hit up another 10-mile run. Okay. Gotta sleep. DVDs to review in the morning.

Week 3

Week 3 was okay...went through the workouts pretty quickly and I was ready for the challenge having run a 10 mile run on Saturday before leaving for Ft. Bragg. I did the workouts fine in the hotel and managed to bang out some cardio. I'm also using my Nike + iPod to keep me on my running goals. I ended up getting sick later that week due to traveling, but came back with high expectations for week 4. The tough part was that the workouts have really stepped up in length and I am having serious problems getting motivated to do the workouts. Thank God I'm doing them at work and can bug other people to help me. Still have ambitions to get explosive, but my body isn't responding the way it has in the past. I think I've just gotten so far out of shape that I have a serious lack of strength, physically and mentally. On the brighter side, I have definitely lost weight doing this workout. I feel lighter and more energized. I hope that FAI can develop a nutrition plan--HINT, HINT.
