Week 5-2

Man, I've been pretty bad. I haven't worked out in three days, and I haven't been watching my eating too much. On top of that, I should have been doing intervals today, but I woke up so late and felt like a zombie.

I will do intervals tomorrow I suppose, but today I rode my bike for 50 minutes. I will also do DDR for an hour, later on today. Despite me not doing much the last three days, I lost 1 pound. So I guess progress is made regardless. Alright. Peace out blog, hopefully tomorrow will be a more eventful day.

Rebuild 4-5

Yeah, so I didn't wake up until almost 8:30 today. I felt like a zombie. So by that time it was already pretty hot outside, so I said forget that mile run. Don't think I'll do it tomorrow, as that's intervals tomorrow, but maybe Saturday, or possibly Sunday. First day of the new work month! Woo. But yeah.

Applied a fair amount of sunscreen and let that settle in, then I rode my bike for about 50 minutes. It definitley felt like over an hour, at least based on the distance I went, and it being an hour the last time I went down that way. I even took some detours through uncharted Hazel Park territory, but still. 50 Minutes. Bah.

Did over an hour of DDR. Burnt 521 calories, YEAH. Going to Gameworks today with some friends, going to be boring. But whatever, social interaction is all the rage these days.

So overall it was a cinch, and I discovered some trasure! THIS IS THE WAY!

Rebuild 4-4

So after hitting the snooze button on my alarm for almost an hour, I decided I should finally get up and knock out these intervals. It was 6:30 am, I'm slowly inching myself closer to the "normal morning," which I find kind of cool in a way. I guess I'm not so worried about people watching me spratically run down the street anymore. Whatevs.

So I did one more two minute run than last time, which was pretty cool. I sort of ignore the pain about half way through the process, then it's just killing time listening to the podcast, while I watch the stop watch casually. It still gets my heart-rate up, I guess I just get into the zone. I realize that I'm traversing two miles by doing these intervals, which is pretty sweet. In the near future, I may trying running from 8 to 9 Mile Road in one run. I haven't ran a solid mile since fourth grade or something, which took about 8 minutes back in the day. I may try that tomorrow, I'm feeling that I can do it. I know I can. So Friday I'll up the 2 minute runs from eight to ten, and then next week I'll start at 7 again, but this time - THREE minute runs. I know, intense.

Did some DDR today as well, for an hour or so of cardio. Burnt about 500 calories, so says the workout mode. Pretty cool, I can see the DDR becoming an every day thing, maybe replacing the bike on some days (like today). That's all for now. Peace!

Feel Good 3-1

195 lbs.

So Rick spent the night once again today, so I won't be doing anything excercise wise, other than hours of walking like yesterday probably. For sure I'll start back up tomorrow though, with intervals and some bodyweight training.

Despite that being a slack week, I still lost three pounds. I find that exceptionally dope (excuse my ghetto) and I account it to those three days of interval training. I've found that I can still live a little and eat some foods that I like, a couple times a week, as long as I do it in moderation.

When I get my check from the government, I'm going to pick up some rollerblades for sure, even more important since I don't have a bike. DDR also, for those indoor aerobic-like activities on days like today. Where I didn't get up before the heat. It's just good to mix it up. I'll ask Rick about the bike again, since I do need one still...if not I may have to pony up some more money from somewhere and buy another one. Rick is currently sleeping on the floor in my room (as usual), and it's almost 1 pm. I don't want to get back into this habit, so I'll probably make sure he goes home today. Maybe I can physically take him home and pick up the bike, I'm not sure. I was sweating, that's why I woke up. Hate sweating when you're sleeping, so uncomfortable.

Probably wash some clothes today, watch what I eat and all. and begin SUPER interval training starting Monday, and going as long as I can baby. More than three days a week probably, since I have no other cardio means at the moment. Wish I had a tredmill, or a stationary bike. Oh well.

That's a pretty hearty update if I do say so myself, I'll let you know a little of what I ate later today. Peace out, keep the faith.
