I always find Sunday a hard day to train. Something about Sunday’s that always makes me want to relax. However, this isn’t an option today so I need to get motivated and get some good training in. One good thing about having a goal/deadline is that when you have a time constraint it make’s things that much more tangible. If i didn’t know in my mind I had a fight (or whatever your goal is) I wouldn’t be training today. It is great to have a set deadline for any goal. Wether training, work, personal. SET DEADLINES!!
Training: Had another good day training today. Starting to feel better every day. My cardio is improving for sure. Sessions no longer feel like they are killing me. I am pushing hard but it seems like I am getting used to it more which is perfect.
Jim, Damien & I did hill sprints outside tonight. We did 5 sets of 5 sprints to the top of bannerman park hill. Sprint up, walk down, repeat 5 times. Each time took us about 2-3 minutes in total. I did one set with the 20lb weight vest which really hit the hams.
Doesn’t sound like much but my lungs and legs were burning! It was awesome. We are going to try to hit the hill sprints twice a week Wed & Sunday.
After that I did 20 min on the elliptical with the 20lb weight vest. Just to get some extra cardio in and burn some extra calories. I have been checking my weight daily and although I am getting leaner the weight is slow going so i need to really bump things up.
Pics do this hill no justice. It was brutal!
