Day 5: Had a few beers last night! Still managed to stay at 777 calories burnt (net) for the day. I suspect thats mainly due to my 40 mins on the elliptical yesterday. 20 mins on the elliptical today. Then, some planks followed by 15 mins in the sauna to soothe my muscles!
For those of you in need of some inspiration today:
FACT: My 61-yr old boss is training for a marathon!! Hes been training for months and the marathon is next month. The fact that his idea of a 'light' run is 10k and I struggle to do 5k is another reason that I've taken up this challenge.

Day 4: Woke up feeling lethargic. Just had some fruit and yogurt. Amazing what a difference it made. Ready to hit the gym now. Can I do 40 mins on the elliptical? We'll find out, wont we?
Plank update: Did 3 reps of 30 seconds each yesterday.
UPDATE: Answer to the above question is a big YES!! 40 mins....4.4 miles..not overly tired...555 CALORIES GONE!!!

gaining 47.3 lb a week

It's been three days since I decided to work out regularly, eat healthy and see the pounds drop. I'm feeling better and more energetic already. My phone app and this site have me hooked and I'm always thinking of new ways to push myself harder and longer (today is a rest day btw...so only a brisk 30 min walk and some light calisthenics for me).
The exercise that I really want to master is the plank. It's so simple to do, yet is quite challenging. Apparently, its great for not only your core muscles but also a variety of other muscle groups.
I need my regular dose of sport every week. I'm really into rugby, cricket and soccer. This summer I've stuck to cricket . I know a lot of North Americans think you dont really need to be fit for cricket, but you do. Cricket is definitely not as intense as soccer or rugby where you are constantly running. However, cricket requires you to stay focussed and alert for much longer periods of time(upto 6-7 hours), which physically and mentally drains you. This combined with short periods of sprinting, throwing and diving around on a field makes up a sport that requires an individual to be quite mentally and physically fit.
I am disappointed that we havent had any cricket here this week, but I've made up for it by going to the gym and taking walks. Hopefully, this weekend will see me out and about the cricket field.
Biggest achievement this week was breaking the 5km/30 minute barrier on the elliptical trainer!!
