These really pong
As one can tell by scrolling down a bit, my attempts to get in shape are something of a long-running comedy of errors. This time, however, might be different! It’s certainly possible!
My goals for this week are modest – I’ve certainly learned that sweeping changes wear out my resolve quickly.
By this time next week (the 4th of September):
- I’ll have worked out three times. Whether that’s going to the gym or doing this workout at home. This should be easy enough, since I managed it last week, but I want to make a habit of it before I start making it harder.
- I won’t have used motorised transport to go anywhere within, say, two miles by road. By this I mean that I’ll bicycle or walk, not that I’ll call a pedi-cab. Poor pedi-cab men. Travel for work is exempt from this rule, for reasons of sweatiness.
- I will have had takeaway food a maximum of one time.
- I won’t have snacked on more than one day.
To spare your boredom, I’ll spread out my reasons over forthcoming updates.
Longer term my goals are:
- Lose at least 10 kilos, taking my weight under 110kg.
- Squat my bodyweight and a half for five sets of five
- Bicycle home from my sister and her husband’s flat without ending up a wheezing wreck
Again, I think reasons are for a later time.
