So, it's already Monday night and I am just finishing my plan for the week- I was enjoying the long weekend, how about you? Ideally, I would have done this before the weekend so I wasn't waiting until 2 days in to document a plan, but you can learn from my mistakes.
On the agenda this week is more 1/2 marathon training, and I am going to do some Turbo Fire and Turbo Jam to shake it up a bit. I am deciding on my next program (either Body Beast or Insanity Mx 30), as a complement to my running. In the mean time, I love Turbo workouts and haven't done them for awhile. I have found myself a bit put off with working out since adding the running back in- it just seems like too much. I sat down and looked at things and realized I can't do another working and running on the same day, or I will burn out. Doing Turbo will get me back to being excited about the workouts, and the running is just something I feel like I need to do. It was a vague goal I set, and since committing to a friend that would run this half with her in October, I am going to stick to it.
Just an FYI- I have noticed that I have much better results with the at home workouts than I do with running. I think my body goes into freak out mode when I run and starts burning muscle because I seem to slim down when I go back to workouts like P90x3 and Cize and stop running. This is why I am asking myself why I would commit to another running even since I already ran a marathon. For me, running is more about the mental challenge of doing something that seems ridiculous more than the physical results. Some people look great when they are training for a running competition, but my body just seems to like resistance workouts better, so I am not committing to being a lifelong competitive runner at this point. I guess if you are looking for reasons not to run, I just gave you one!
Eating plan? I overate this weekend on my treat meals, so this week's plan is to minimize treats and get back on track eating clean 100% from Tues-Fri. (Although the Hawaiian calzone I had was delightful and one of the best treats I could imagine!)
Happy Labor Day!
