Feel the burn.



B is no longer for beer and I'm sad
 



I really should have thought this theme through a little bit more.  Words that start with B and are relative to my "commit to fit" challenge aren't the easiest to come by.  I've decided to go with "burn"  because I am already feeling it!!

On Saturday I decided to terrorize exercise my core and upper body after my run.  DOMS set in late on Sunday and after an intense work out tonight, I dread laughing.   

My commit to be fit challenge will include 3-4 strength training sessions per week in addition to my half marathon training program. 

It's time to feel the burn


Can you feel it?

  1. I was laughing by the end of the first sentence. :) Now I'm going to work out and I will chuckle now and again as I join you in the burn...

  2. I always wish I had the motivation to work out harder at home. However, I am bad at taking it easy on myself. Not that my thighs, butt or upper arms would agree right now, but they could hurt more.

    1. I have this struggle as well. The gym is definitely more motivating! I find having a plan and knowing exactly what I'll be doing for my workout helps for giving it my all at home.

    2. I should really try that, but mostly I just make things up as I watch whatever I PVRed from the day before. lol. The side lunge with weights I think will be a repeat for me. My thighs are now screaming at me.

enough IS enough.

  I can think of many 'e' words that are relevant to my commit to be fit theme for this A-Z Challenge: energy, exertion, educate, excel...the list could go on and on. I finally settled on the word 'enough'.   Christmas of 2010 I was at the lowest weight I had ever been.  I remember being very happy and very, very hungry.  I was over-exercising and under-eating.  The weight didn't stay off because it wasn't a lifestyle that I could keep up with.  By summer 2011, the weight was back on. In my commitment to be fit and my quest to lose the last 10 pounds, I will be doing enough.   I will exercise enough and I will eat enough.  I will change my body and change my life in a healthy, and maintainable way. When I run, I will run fast enough.  When I lift, I will lift heavy enough.  When I stretch, I will stretch far enough.   I will, simply, do enough.

Kick Ass.

  Day 11, Letter K, and almost 5 pounds gone!  I'm kicking ass at my A-Z Commit to be Fit Challenge!!   I'm quite certain that the next 5 pounds are going to be quite a bit tougher than the first 5, but I'm willing to do the work.
