(Starting November 28 and ending January 1 to have 5 complete weeks)
- Perform yoga 7 times. (once a week with 2 weeks having 2)
- Attend Body Pump 5 times.
- Lift weights 8 times on my own.
- Attend the Body Pump Challenge (held in December sometime)
- 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.
- Do 15 ab workouts (chiseled core, P90x core workout that I've never done, or working out on my own)
- Quantity: Run 12 times. (that is 2-3 times a week) - Stretch goal is to run 15 times.
- 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)
In September, I wrote an exercise summary that shows how little (or how much depending on how you look at it) I work out.
Perhaps those goals are a bit hard to complete all of them. If it was just running or just lifting, I could do it. So after further thought, I will be satisfied if I complete 6 of 8 of those but at least 1 of the running ones has to be included.
I also have 7 days to adjust this before November 28 rolls around. Do you have any suggestions?

I love that you posted your goals. That will be a great way to stay accountable. I have a goal finally becoming a runner instead of just a gym rat, but I've never gotten there.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your goals!

Documenting goals helps. Posting them to the internet helps with feeling more accountable.
ReplyDeleteThat's a LOT of fitness goals! I like the variety you have listed. After the marathon, I'm looking forward to running less and doing more cross training. I really need to start working on my core now! There's no excuse to skip it.
ReplyDeleteAlso after a run or after yoga or after spinning you can always add a 10 minute core workout.
