Accomplishing the Possible

[Mixy-Chan]

So I'm back at again...I think this is like the third time...but now I have no excuses.

 

Last time I started and my goal was mainly on swimming and time swims for work. I got that down pact I'm still doing that.  I floated around on the challenge around December.  I died when my neck came back to bother me and put me in a torticollis where I couldn't move my neck.  Two months of pain and suffering I'm a lot better...I see a specialist this week about it too...  But in any case now I'm back to really getting a higher fitness, this time focusing on building muscle and lifting weights.

 

My goal.....don't really have it established completely yet.  But it's supposed to help me towards paramedic training because I have to be able to lift so much and be really strong in my fitness. 

 

The how?  Well I didn't know where to start.  A new training center opened in my city. A Co Worker told me and I was going to join a class...but then I decided I would go with the personal trainer rout when one of the trainers is a qualified paramedic himself.  he is now gearing my workouts specifically on working my way up for the strength of a paramedic.  Which really excites me.  (and kills me inside sometimes)

 

 

So far I have finished three sessions with my trainer. I can lift a lot more weight than I thought I could...my left side struggles a bit but it's getting there. I have four sessions planned before I leave for about two weeks to China and may or may not get a chance to do a lot of working out...I'll accomplish some....but not going to be as intense as what I have been doing.  When I come back I will be back at it again. Once I recover from jet lag. 

 

 

My week (once our pool is working again) will look something like this.

Monday- Swim 1000to 1600 m

Tuesday - Personal Training

Wednesday-Swim 1000 m to 1600 m

Thursday- Personal training

Friday- Swim or rest

Saturday- no personal training but work on what I learned.... Learning to love the agility ladder

Sunday-Rest and hot tub.

 

I will probably take the personal training up to three times a week once I get my money settled again once I get back from China.  But for now I'm keeping my body from too much... 

 

I plan to accomplish the possible and take it step by step and hold myself accountable!  Any support is good support!

Awesome mentality! Can't wait to read about your successes (and failures - gotta count them too)!!
