New Years Eve is 8 weeks away – 8 weeks! It’s hard to believe! Last year at this time, I finished out the year weighing less than I had weighed all year prior to 12/31. That is my goal this year as well – to dial it in and finish strong, safely in the 130’s.
My plan is simple and straightforward – it has to be to get the results I want!
- My “week” will start on Thursdays and end on Wednesdays (NYE is on a Thursday this year
- I will weigh in and measure body fat on Thursday mornings and report weekly here on this page
- I will only plan out my workouts in addition to PiYo two weeks at a time so that I don’t overwhelm myself and feel defeated if I have to change daily plans based on how my body is feeling – there are always workouts on BOD that can be done in place of something I have planned in advance. I like to be flexible
- I do still plan to run 20-25 miles a week in addition to PiYo
Goals for the Next 8 Weeks:
- Finish on 12/31/2015 SAFELY in the 130’s (meaning a couple of weeks prior to 12/31 weighing in in the 137-139 range)
- I’d really, REALLY love to see a body fat percentage in the 21% range again on my handheld body fat monitor
- I want to see major changes in my physique since I’m so dedicated to PiYo
- Complete 5+ hours a week of dedicated exercise
- Run 20-25 miles a week on average
- Complete the full PiYo 8 week program
- Supplement my fitness with at least 2 BOD (bea.chbo.dy on dem.and) workouts a week
- Stay within daily net calorie goal of 1390 calories at least 5 days a week
