Exercise
Week 1 - consciously remember to do so - 15 squats a day
Week 2 - 3 walks a week
Week 3 - HIT training starts
Week 4 - add in pushups and planks (aim 3 x a week)
Week 5 -maintain the above - try to make it a habit
Week 6 - add clean and press to the squats....
Week 7 - Must work on above - with work and school now - I just focus on the foods I am eating and exercise, for the most part - goes to the wayside. (Just being honest)
Week 8 - Brutal week starting - and working and school is brutal enough for me, HOWEVER, I plan on trying to get in extra walking and more squats, etc.
Week 9 - no change.
Week ? 11? Not necessarily in continued challenge but keeping on posting and try to participate in conversation.
Been gone two weeks at least, just swamped with starting school full time and trying to keep a 3.75 gpa. I DID lose 1.8 lbs within the last two weeks, so that is good.
