This is my second challenge. I just finished my first challenge and I'm happy to be able to join a "class" for this one. I picked Ranger because I'm strong, but not super strong and I can move, but I'm not fast. I'd say one of my biggest strengths is my stamina and my ability to push myself even when I want to stop. I do consistent strength work with dumbbells and I also do bodyweight circuits after the dumbbell work. Most of the time I do these workouts 3 times a week. I enjoy running and biking and will run on a treadmill or outside and I have both an exercise bike and an outdoor bike. I've been focusing on strength/bodyweight work the last few months and I have definitely gained some muscle. I was focusing on the strength work so much that I gave up my running and biking and I want to get back to doing more running/biking. With this challenge I'm hoping to find a schedule in which I can incorporate all of the things I enjoy into my fitness routine without spending all of my free time working out. I learned a lot from my last challenge. First, I finally overcame my obsession with the number on the scale. I now only weigh and measure at the beginning/ending of a challenge. Second, I discovered I don't do well with restricting foods so no foods are off limits, however, I do strive to eat nutrient dense foods.
