- No running until April 7. [New and will be hard.]
- Complete 18 cardio workouts (running, exercise bike, or elliptical) (March = 18, met; February = 18, not met; January = 19, met; December = 18, met; November = 18, met) [This month I will allow 10 minutes on the bike to count if it is a warmup to knee exercises.

- Frequency: Run 8 times. (March = 8, met; February = 12, met; January = 14, met; December = 10, met, November = 12, met with 15) [I have 2 races this month and am injured so plan to run fewer times.]
- Distance: Run 60 total miles (March = 60, met; February = 60, met; January = 13, met; December = 40, November = 65, met)

- Lift weights 10 times on my own. (March = 8, not met; February = 5, not met; January = 5 met; December = 5, not met; November = 4, met with 5)
- Attend Body Pump 4 times. (March = 4, met; February = 4, not met; January = 3, met; December = 3, not met; November = 4, not met)

- Stretch for 10 consecutive minutes 5 times (March = 10, met; February = 2, not met; January = 2, met)

- Perform yoga or a similar group fitness class 2 times. (March = 2, not met; February = 2, not met; January = 2, met; December = 2, met; November = 3, not met) - I hate this goal. I know yoga is good though.
I have a few other goals that are related to exercise but aren't me working out.
- Have another photo shoot to get some athletic pictures for at the top of this post. (March = 1, met)
- No more than 8 rest days all month (sitting at stretching or doing foam roller exercises means it is not a rest day) (March<8, met)
- Put my monthly workout goals in excel or some program so I have them all together and can pull some data based on that. (March = not met)
- Make more collages with exercise photos and add them to my exercise gallery (March = met)
Why is that when you are injured you want to work out even more. I should make a goal not to gain 10 lbs while my knee is injured this year. It's the same injury that I had last year and during that time I gained 10 lbs and none of my clothes fit. Even after I started running again, it still took sometime to get the weight off.
go swimming.
ReplyDeleteSwimming is expensive around here. There also aren't many places and I hear they are really crowded.
