Anyone else doing this? Week one for us got cancelled due to snow but I am planning on using the 8 weeks as a target to lose 10 pounds, with last class 5th March, so we are probably behind other classes. I went thinking I could always not go again (I read quite quickly before I went in that you could get a full refund if it wasn't for you after the first class) but I enjoyed it, was hot and sweaty coming out of the class so will carry on. I was definitely flagging at the end. It doesn't matter that I have no rhythm 😄
However, I lose weight like a sloth, even if I intermittently fast it doesn't really work, so am thinking I need quite a high level of exercise, which makes me feel good if nothing else! I weigh every day and record on Happy Scale.
I think this is how my Weeks 1 & 2 will pan out exercise wise.
Week1-
Tues: - Gym: PT Session, DYF - DONE
Wed: - C25K - completed W1R3 on treadmill - DONE
Thursday: - PT Session - DONE, dog walk - TO DO
Friday - C25K - start WK2R1 which is 90 sec runs x 7
Saturday - No pilates - class was full so booked for following Monday, C25K, WK2R2, long dog walk
Sunday: long dog walk, C2K - W2R2.
Week2-
Mon: RPilate
Tues: - Gym: PT Session, DYF
Wed: - C25K - W2R3
Thursday: - PT Session
Friday - C25K - W3R1
Saturday - RPilate
Sunday: long dog walk, C2K W3R2
I absolutely know it looks like a lot of exercise, but the DYF and the C25K are the only ones that get me hot and sweaty - and makes me think something is working!!!
I'd like to add a swim into that, but it's quite an expensive undertaking already, the gym is only £1 a session (new year offer), and I've done a cheaper block booking for Pilates.
Anyway, I've dumped out what was in my brain, and will use this for accountability for myself.
Just to add: I need to lose a stone overall, but am hoping building these good habits will carry on through to the summer.
