We're a week into the competition and I've finally gotten around to setting up my blog, hopefully I will find the time to add to it daily. Workouts have been going well so far, haven't quite figured out an exact workout schedule yet but I'm sure that will pan out real soon. Not sure how many body parts to focus on when doing the weights suggested in the Go Sleeveless program. So this is what I did and ate for today:
Workout:
-moderate walk for about 30 mins
-cardio on the elliptical for about 19 mins. (didn't do the interval training part)
-followed exercises in the Whole Body Fat Blaster minus the mountain climber and burpees
-added some Thunder Thigh exercises such as the side knee tuck, side lunge, inner thigh leg lift, plie squat, and side leg lift.
-really been feeling the squats in the hamstrings and gluteus maximus (that's the butt!!) as long as it helps lift and tone, I'll keep doing them, NO PAIN, NO GAIN
-also did some sit ups, planned to do more intense abs tomorrow
-went and swam for an hour in the evening (about 1500 m), felt great tonight!!!
Food for the Day:
-3/4 cup of Natures Path Organic Flax Plus Pumpkin Raisin Crunch with Vanilla Soy beverage, thought I'd try the soy since so many others have, but definitely prefer skim milk (yuck)
-snack: 1/2 cup fat free plain yogurt and cup of mixed berries
-for lunch: cottage cheese, carrots, red pepper and an apple
-afternoon snack: apple and a tablespoon of almond butter, love the natural almond butter and peanut butter, lots of flavour and so good with apple slices
-dinner: bbq salmon steak, broccoli and a spinach salad with tomatoes, cuke, red peppers and green onions
-drank lots of water, more than 2L and had some tea, sometimes hard to drink that much
I must say that I do miss not getting to drink my glass of orange juice, but following the detox diet so far hasn't been too bad. Well it's midnight now and time to put the mind and body to rest.
