Keep calm and be dauntless, Sweet Pea

[Sweet Pea]

Challenge Goals:

 

 

 

Nutrition- Eat Clean!

I'm going for 42 days of clean eating. What does clean eating mean to me? Unlimited fruits and veggies, nuts, healthy fats, and full fat dairy in moderation. Organic or grass-fed meat when possible. That's the basics, obviously there's more to it than that. I've been doing really well so far, so it's not a drastic change but a continuation of what I'm currently doing.

 

 

Fitness- Sprint!

I'm going to 24 sprint sessions, which is an average of 4 per week. I also do one "long" run per week.

 

 

 

Fitness- Bodyweight workouts!

I'm basically following the convict conditioning program right now, and it's been almost 2 months, so I'm going to keep that going.

 

 

 

I've failed a few challenges before, so my main goal this time around is to simply follow through, not just on the workouts and clean eating, but on keeping updated here.

Day One:

-No workout, rest day

-Unclean Food: I had two chocolate chip cookies, a glass of red wine, and some caramel/cheddar popcorn. Other than that it was clean. Yes, I had a small meltdown that caused the cheats. (But look at day two, it's so much better!)

 

 

Day Two:

-Sprints workout: 1 minute sprints and 1 minute walking, 8 rounds. 

-Strength workout:

Vertical Pulls 3x40

Wall Pushups 3x30

Knee Tucks 3x20

Wall Headstands 1xx35 seconds

 

-Food: All clean except for ONE (yes only one) almond Hershey's kiss.

Your goals look great. You've built a good foundation - now you can go after the follow through!

 

I've been considering the Convict Conditioning program. Interested to hear more about your results!

Great work so far, day 2 was brilliant. Having one kiss and cutting off shows some discipline

Thank you!

 

So far I love the convict conditioning program, although it requires patience and dedication. It was slow starting, but I felt like once it clicked, there was no question it was the right path for me.

Hey Sweet pea,

 

Your goals look great and challenging. Following-through the whole length of a challenge has also been a problem for me; I definitely have ups and downs of motivation.

It sounds like you are starting off from a very consistent base already though so you are already well on your way to succeeding.

 

How did you first week go? Did you manage to keep it going?
