fitness goals

for the rest of the semester:

- exercise at least one hour six times a week, regardless of if it's at the crc. i've got workouts i can do in the apartment, i'm going to do those. cardio three to five times a week, of which:
  • 2 of them must be swimming
  • 2 of them must be in the morning (almost) first thing.
  • 1 of them must be running
- limit sodas to 36 oz. in a week (3 x 12 oz.). otherwise, water. and coffee when needed.
- eat salad every day.
- no hamburgers.

while this seems very sudden, i've realized that it's only a minor tweak in what i'm doing now. generally now, i've been working out three or four times a week:

monday: new, but recently started working out with ej on jumping.
tuesday: workout, weights. have not regularly missed.
wednesday: new, on and off -- sprint workouts (has not happened for a week)
thursday: workout, weights. have not regularly missed.
friday: lifeguard workouts, frisbee sometimes?
saturday: none -- supposed to sprint.
sunday: none

i've picked up some workouts i could do in my room. i just need to be exercising. and i want to. i just want to set these goals so at least i have some kind of accountability (i.e. you guys).
eating is probably the biggest challenge, especially with the dining hall. but hey they have salad, and i could stick to sandwiches. that would be healthy.

i haven't had much luck losing weight this semester. i've realized it's a lot harder, with some of the late nights and morning shifts, etc. and some of the minus habits of my eating. so... let's see if i can reform that.

times like these, you realize how invaluable freshman frisbee was. in caldwell. eddie knocking on the doors to tell us it's frisbee time (and no longer a choice but necessity).

time to get back to that.

this was inspired, after i realized that i am borderline obese.
sigh. so depressing. where are you tennis, frisbee, swimming???????
