December Workout Goals - Overall Summary

Summary for December
  1. Yoga: 6 of 7
  2. Body Pump: 3 of 5
  3. Weight Lifting: 2 of 8
  4. Cardio Classes:1 of 5
  5. Abs: 12 of 15
  6. Run Quantity: 8 of 12
  7. Run Quality: 13.51 of 44.5
I'd say that wasn't bad at all for being sick the entire last week.    If I weren't sick, I would have run 4 times (goal 6), done yoga (goal 1), done abs 3 times (goal 5), and lifted weights (pump or own my own).  I would have had at least 3 of the goals. If I wasn't way too busy during week 2, I would have met even more.  So all in all I don't think it was bad. I didn't meet any but illness impacts working out.  I also did not have any goals to show doing any cardio on my own that isn't running and I used the exercise bike a few times. 

Now I need to come up with realistic workout goals for January.


Notice how Poly is in my way while working out.  She does that frequently.

(Starting November 28 and ending January 1 to have 5 complete weeks)
  1. Perform yoga 7 times. (once a week with 2 weeks having 2)
    1. 62 minutes of P90X on 12/4
    2. class on 12/14
    3. 12/17 - 15 minutes
    4. 12/21 - yoga youtube video (not good but didn't have another choice)
    5. 12/22
    6. 12/23
  2. Attend Body Pump 5 times. 
    1. Tuesday 11/30
    2. Friday 12/3
    3. Thursday 12/16
  3. Lift weights 8 times on my own.
    1. 12/21 - upper body (+core)
    2. 12/23 - legs (+ core)
  4. Attend 5 cardio classes at the gym (Cardio Fusion, Spinning, and/or Body Combat) - averages 1 a week but I have 13 vacation days so I won't be at work a lot and I telecommute so an average of 1 a week is pretty good.
    1. Wednesday 12/1 - Spinning
  5. Do 15 ab workouts (chiseled core, P90X core workout that I've never done, or working out on my own)
    1. 12/4 on my own
    2. 12/13  on my own
    3. 12/14 Get Fit Fast 15 minute workout at the gym
    4. 12/17 - 10 minute workout at home very similar to get fit fast at the gym
    5. 12/19 - 5 minutes on my own
    6. 12/20 - 5 min on my own 
    7. 12/22
    8. 12/23
    9. 12/24
    10. 11/30
    11. 12/3
    12. 12/16  (the last 3 were during body pump class but there is an abs portion and since there is you don't do abs the same day too so that is why the last 3  weren't listed before)
  6. Quantity: Run 12 times. (that is 2-3 times a week)  - Stretch goal is to run 15 times. 
    1. 12/1 - 1 mi (.5 before and .5 after spinning)
    2. 12/3 - 1.5 mi (before pump)
    3. 12/11 - 2 miles at the hotel gym
    4. 12/14 - .5 miles on treadmill
    5. 12/16 - 2 miles on treadmill
    6. 12/17 - 2.5 miles on treadmill
    7. 12/18 - 1.68 miles on my parents treadmill. I had a deadline because of going to my cousins party. 
    8. 12/19 - 2.33 miles on parents treadmill. I wanted to do 4 but my shins hurt the entire time.
  7. Duration: Run 44.5 total miles (6 mi, 7.5 mi, 9 mi, 10 mi, 12 mi) That is actually too low to start a marathon training plan but I have not had many weeks in a row with much more mileage so I don't want to get ahead of myself too much.   I would love to have 57 miles (8, 10, 11, 13, 15)
    1. Week 1 - 1.0 + 1.5 = 2.5 (low but can still make up the 3.5 miles... hopefully)
    2. Week 2 - 2.0 (worse than last week)
    3. Week 3 - 0.5 + 2.0  + 2.5 + 1.68 = 6.68
    4. Week 4 - 2.33 
If it weren't for an awful week 2, I might have a shot at these.
I will add that I've used the exercise bike a few times but it does not fit into any of these goals above.
