Day 1 of the Challenge

March 28, 2005 · Comments

Nothing like having no defined sense of what you want to do before launching headlong into your own challenge, eh? To that end, I just did baby steps.

I started the Special Ops Workout, which is one of those nifty Stew Smith workouts, where he takes various fitness plans from all the Armed Forces and boils them into a nice twelve week program. It had a mix of calisthenics (which I’ve been doing) and weight training. It also had a faster pace, with a lot of “move rapidly between exercises, and get a rest later” kind of thinking. That’s one nearly-new thing.

I am going to try a week long calorie-reduction effort, where I know EXACTLY how many calories are going into my gullet every day of this week. This is partly due to the wacky hours I’ve been working lately and the fact I somehow found myself eating burgers three days out of seven last week. What the Fred was that about? I haven’t had fast food that much over the last two years, and three times in one week?

What else? I ordered a half dozen different cardio thingies from the library, so I’ll start doing that. Kat and I are going to do an evening stretching program every weeknight.

How about you? What are you doing for the “Dare You” challenge?
