Digging Deep

I don't know what's up with my year so far but I don't seem to be very consistent. I had a great and fun and GROWING weekend. I ate more than usual though and things I haven't been eating like candy and french fries. So even though last week was supposed to be my clean eating week, I don't think it really worked out like that. So here I am feeling less than good about myself and my body and knowing that I know better. Okay, chalk up another one for lesson learned. I can't eat whatever I want whenever I want without some consequences in how I feel. So, now my plan of attack.

Since I started out this week feeling under the weather, I have to regroup now. I don't really like it when I get off to a rocky start on Mondays. With that being said, I now how room for improvement this weekend, right? So I have a plan and it is this. I will be cleaning up my nutrition through the rest of this week and do more cardio than I have. I was aiming for 3 days a week but I think I was only getting in two. I will also do weight training 4 times this week. With this plan in mind I started out my day with 45 minutes fasted walking on incline treadmill 4.6-4.8 @ 12.5-15%. Felt good. Wish the stepmill were working though because I really like breaking up my cardio more. Tonight I will be going back to the gym for weights. So here's my plan for the rest of the week:

Tuesday (today)
Cardio: 45 minutes steady-state fasted morning
Training: Heavy shoulders, abs

Wednesday
Cardio: 30 minutes steady-state post training
Training: Back & Plyo Legs

Thursday
Cardio: 45 minutes steady-state fasted morning
Training: REST

Friday
Cardio: 30-40 minutes steady-state fasted morning
Training: Shoulders, Triceps, abs

Saturday
Cardio: 30 minutes steady state post-training
Training: Heavy Hams and Glutes

Sunday
REST and FOOD PREP for the following week

My nutrition aim is 6-7 meals per day. I will be cleaning up my eating as the week progresses and come next Monday I will back to my clean eats. Not because I have to but because I want to and I know I feel better when I eat better. I'll give up my mealplan over the weekend for next week.

See? I feel better already having it laid out for me. My training and cardio mixed up with some healthy eats and I'm good to go. I'll keep you posted. Hope you all have a fantastic day and your week is off to a good start!

You just encouraged me to make a plan of attack. I need to regroup and reorganize. ;)
