New Routine

as i had mentioned in a previous post, i wanted to take a break from running after my race. running was feeling forced and i wanted to enjoy it. but not running meant no exercise plans. i knew i needed a change of pace.

after searching a bit, i finally took the plunge and bought Jillian Michaels Body Revolution. ive liked alot of Jillian's workouts and i love her on the biggest loser (my most favorite show besides the big bang theory), so i figured this would be a good fit for me.

the workouts are only 30 mins long. and its 6 days a week. ill do a further review on it when i get more into it, but so far im loving it! short, brutle, and to the point. its a good mix of cardio and weights which was just what i was looking for. and the workouts change every 2 weeks so i wont get too bored. its a 90 day program, so i still have a ways to go. but im ready to see some changes. but first i need to change my eating habits. cant lose weight eating cookies at every meal. darn it ;) ill talk more about my eating plans later this week.

ive decided id do a little running too. im going to just casually add in runs when i see fit. i dont wanna lose the running ive built up so far, so im gonna run when i feel like it, not forced. tonight i went for a 1 mile loop around the neighborhood and pushed myself a little. i shaved 20 seconds off my fastest mile! can i get a woot woot! i love progress :)

happy tuesday!
