demoncat8 Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 I have just finished my homemade 10 week program to kick off my fitness journey . I started the new phase on Saturday where I alternate the beginner body weight workout with the c25k program and just do some yoga on Friday to rest and keep from getting too stiff. I also re-built my bathroom last week. My Mom and I stripped out everything but the bathtub all the way down to the subfloor and studs and replaced it with new. It took 3 days working flat out 10 hours each day but we got it done. My next plan is preparing for the zombie apocalypse by setting up a place to keep a couple of hens so I have a reliable source for free range eggs everyday. Quote Link to comment
demoncat8 Posted August 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 I have just completed my second body weight workout! I can still only do 2 sets instead of 3 but I'm hoping to work up to that by the end of next week, my muscles should have stopped complaining quite so loudly by then. Quote Link to comment
demoncat8 Posted August 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Second day of c25k. Went a total of 2.08 miles in 31 minutes, I also don't feel near as sore as I have the last couple of days so I am adjusting well to the new workout program. Quote Link to comment

demoncat8 Posted August 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 I teach high school physics so I will need the energy and the relaxation so I can keep up with them and then not kill them when they are gluing marbles to their faces. 1 Quote Link to comment
