I've decided to post what I'm doing to get healthy and to be consistent about it. I look at the heading of the blog and feel that its as true today as it was when I wrote it: diet, working out, consistency, and determination. The reality is that I have allowed other things to get in front of what is important - my health. And that is not the way I want to live. The fact that I've lived in a state of stress for too long (long story) has something to do with the falling off the cliff of fitness. But that, in a way, is an excuse. So be it, I'm on the path again and feel good about it.
I went for another mountain bike ride today. 33 minutes in the heat and humidity - nice workout. Mrs. Ntckfit wants to do laps in the local pond here later. Sounds good.
Today:
Today: 181.6 BF%: 24 43.58 lbs. fat
Goal: 167.0 BF%: 18 30.06 lbs. fat
Goal calorie intake: 2400
Goal water intake: 72 ozs.
Goal Calorie Deficit: 500 - 600
This is the plan for the remainder of the year:
Cycle One: (3 Months)
P90X - Weight Resistance: Monday, Wednesday, Friday
Cardio (HIIT, mountain and road biking, swimming laps, chasing Mrs. Ntckfit) Tuesday,
Thursday, and Saturday (Not doing the program's cardio bits)
Cycle Two: (2 Months)
P90X/Insanity Hybrid Cardio and Weight Resistance as Above
Cycle Three: (2 Months) Cardio and Weight Resistance as Above
Kettle Bells, TRX, WODs, Tabata fun
One of the things that I have in the quiver of programs is the Hollywood Physique. It's a program that focuses on developing specific muscles that create the definitive Hollywood body - think Brad Pitt in Fight Club. Now, I like the program for its focus on the creating of the body type, yes I'm vain, but the diet is wacked. Eggs and more eggs ..... then more eggs. I can appreciate that the protein is natural, that the focus on fats (animals?) is what they are after too .... but the diet is not for me. I'll take parts of it and run with the things that I find helpful. I like one of the things that they focus: slowing down and focusing on every single rep to the point you are totally wiped out at the end of the workout.
Ok, enough said for today.
