Schedule, Schedule, Schedule
So, last Friday I made a schedule of all of the exercise that I wanted to do and when and how much. I figured that it is best if I write it down because its more likely to happen. So, I created a schedule for the rest of the year/rest of my goal time. It consists of running, jumping rope, and pilates. Once we do our half marathon we might do something else besides running, but we will see. Right now it is in the schedule for the rest of the year (although we won't run as many miles as we are right now! Probably three or four at a time, maybe even five or six but not 10. I don't like running that much!). It will be nice to make a change so I might start doing my Firm workouts again after our marathon. They are a combo of weightlifting and aerobic exercise dvds which I really do enjoy. The best part is that I can do them at home (which is good for the cold weather and with baby).
Anyway, today I have followed the schedule so far. I set out to do my 20 minute ab pilates and my 20 minute buns/thighs pilates just like I put on the schedule. Tonight we are going to run our four miles and I will be good for today. Around 90 minutes of exercise. That is my goal for each day.
The point is, I made a schedule and I have stuck to it (granted its only the first day of my new/revised schedule, but I did it). Writing your plan out does wonders to achieving your goals. That is how the hubby and I have been staying on track for training for the half marathon. I think that with this combo of pilates and running (which is what helped me lose weight a few years ago) and the crosstraining of jumping rope I should be in good shape to shed of more pounds. Anyway, sorry for my jabbering, but I am just so proud of myself! YAY!!!!! Schedule, Schedule, Schedule!!!!!!!
