I did really well in my eating yesterday and was successful in accomplishing all my exercise goals. I really enjoyed the CLX Burn 1 session and definitely have to increase the weights. I kept them low as I wasn’t sure how much harder the session was going to get so I paced myself. I need to up it quite a bit to really exhaust my muscles. I ran 4:90sx3 last night – not as much as I planned but I did it after I did the CLX and I was tired. I noticed something this time though, my legs were not tired (like they used to be) but my breathing was really taxed. I’m assuming that will adjust the more I run.
Again I was up way to late last night to get up at 4:00 a.m., so I walked to the train station this morning. It is about a 30 minute walk and is a nice way to start the day when the sun is just coming up. It is rather peaceful. Makes me a bit late for work though so if I walk, I need to make sure I leave at 5:50 rather than 6:15 (like this morning).
So here are my plans for today:
Exercise:
a.m. : Walk to Train (30 minutes)
lunch: Walk along river (30 minutes)
p.m. : 4:90sx4 (16 jog/14 min walk -30 min)
Ab Jam
Strrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeetttttttcccccccccchhhhhhhhh
Food Plans:
1 Steel cut oats & 3 Turkey Sausage
2 Apple
3 .5c Br rice, 100g lean pork chop, gr beans, zucchini
4 Almonds
5 Salmon, Veg of some sort
So about my blog title – I am hungry today – not sure why as I’m not eating any less/more than normal but I think with all the extra walking/exercising my body is craving food and unfortunately it is craving junk like popcorn or chips. I will defeat it though and eat only healthy stuff today. Maybe I’ll throw in an extra apple if it gets too much.
*sings* iii know whyyy you're huuungryyyyy ! it's because you did weight training! weight training makes you feel like you're STARVING. why? because of afterburn, of course! when you lift weights (or do high intensity interval training, like what you'll be doing in burn intervals and burn it off), your metabolism keeps revving alllll day, making you burn way more calories than you would with just straight-up cardio.
ReplyDeletetake a gooood hard look at the CLX nutrition plan, and don't be afraid to eat a few extra calories! if your average intake is around 1200, you may need to eat 1500 to stay awake throughout the day. (i know, it's a tough concept to get used to, but i think it's something you'll adjust to quickly ;) haha.) also, definitely listen to the motivation CD that came with the program! it always helps me.
talk to you soon!,
