Welcome to My Personal Fitness Challenge Day 78
Today was the start of my "none" days. It is a little harder but I really want to "shock" my body and kick start my weight loss a bit so it is very worth it.
I have worked out at Team Fitness Saturday, Sunday and now Monday. I was looking forward to tonight for a couple of weeks. We did 12 week photos, weigh in, measurements and composition. During the assessment I mentioned to Leanne and Wesley that some of the workouts were milder than others and I really need to be pushed. I know I can always work harder but if I am pushed I always do more than I would ever do on my own. I got my wish.....
The workout started as it normally does, little warm up on the treadmill, followed by some stretching then the workout began challenging and stayed that way until the end. I felt like I was working out and pushing myself the whole time! At times it was hard and I was sweating and I loved it the whole time. An hour after the workout my muscle are already talking to me. Tomorrow at Zumba I am really going to feel it.
The other great thing about tonight is the team. We have gotten to know each other and we know what buttons to push to encourage each other to work just a bit harder. Even though it was difficult and we were breathing hard, sometimes to the point of reaching an anaerobic state we were still laughing and poking. I really hope we can keep our little group together after the challenge ends. Most of us have a ways to go and the support is what is going to propel us to success; both from Team Fitness and from the crew of friends working out.
So start of week 12 I am down 25.8 lbs and 33 inches, and a total of 31.3 lbs from my top weight a few weeks before the challenge started. I am so happy about how I feel and how I am starting to look. I can't wait to see how I feel and look in the next 12 weeks.
