Fitness Update // 5lbs Down

November 24, 2014April 11, 2021 Corinne 3 comments
Fitness Update // 5lbs Down

I have some great news! I’ve finally managed to lose some weight! 5lbs to be exact.

I worked out every day and also changed my diet – eating less fruit. And it worked!

Here’s the workouts I did:

Monday: P90 Sculpt 1 (30 minute workout focusing mainly on toning arms)

Tuesday: 2.7 mile run and Ab Ripper 100 (100 ab exercises)

Wednesday: P90 Sculpt 1.

Thursday: P90 Sweat 1 (35 workout focusing on burning calories) and Ab Ripper 100

Friday: P90 Sculpt 1.

Saturday: P90 Sweat 1 and Ab Ripper 100

Sunday: 3 mile run.

I have been very good at getting myself up early before work so I can get my workouts in before I go! I even had to get up at 4:45 one morning – but I got myself into a routine and started going to bed earlier. Getting into bed most nights between 9:00 – 9:30pm.

Running.

Tuesday’s Run.

This was the first run after my 10k, I tried to really push it running as fast as I could for as long as possible when I set off. Then, on the way back I tried to crank it up a little. My second mile was the slowest, as usual. That damn incline really does slow me down!

My best split mile was the last, which was 11:09

Sunday’s Run

This went a lot better than Tuesdays. I’m not going to lie, it was difficult but I kept pushing through.

I managed to get under 11 minutes on my last mile, clocking in at 10:49, which is my quickest mile since I started training again a few weeks ago. I’d love to start getting average paces of under 11 minutes.

I’m going on a trip next Weekend, Friday to Monday so I’m going to have next Saturday and Sunday off exercising all together – I’m a little nervous about this – but if I’m sensible with my food and drink choices, I’m sure it will be fine!

How has your week gone?
