So there are my goals for this round. I hope it makes sense. I am a little worried about this round as I see the training plans requiring a little more solo work as the gym I go to doesn’t have as many classes available for what I want to do and to help me achieve my goals. I am glad that my PT sessions have moved to a Monday as Wednesday on the plan is for core work. Also I see myself using the gym at home a little more and it does have me semi-worried as the equipment there is kind of crap. Let’s just hope it works.

The first week also sees 3 red flag days which does break my routine a little but I don’t see it being terribly bad, yet. Monday is lunch with a friend but I have it covered as the place we will probably end up at does custom sandwiches so I will have one made up specially without the baddies. The weekend is looking difficult. Saturday is the big unknown. I know it is also Super Saturday Session so I will try my best to bust out the calories to make up for the unknown. Sunday is a little easier as I think it might be easier to decline a few options so I can get my shop done for the next week as well. We will see how it goes. I will definitely update about it.

Tomorrow morning I will do my fitness test. It will be interesting how fast I can run 1km since I started running a lot more now (on the treadmill though). I am definitely going to have to take the fitness test part of the program a little more seriously this round.

Now I leave you with me doing a squat… hahaha.
