Crazy Days

So, some crazy stuff has been going on. Been looking for a job lately, I now have one. So over the past week or so I've been busy doing medicals, physicals, drug test, packing, etc. I have been making sure to get in at least 40 minutes, 4 times a week. Mostly just running, not much else, aside from the physical which involved half an hour of strength based exercises.

Now I'm doing training with this new job, which will have me at a hotel for about 7 weeks. This is fantastic for my training, as the hotel has a pool and a fitness centre. I plan to start working out more, since it's right there. I haven't seen the fitness centre yet, but hopefully it has some nice weights, so I can do a bit more weight training. I've been unemployed, so I haven't been able to afford a gym pass.

Missed an Update

Oopsie-doodles, I thought I updated on Sunday, must have missed it.

Here is the update for Sunday April 14th,

Managed to do 100 push ups per day for a full 7 days! Got in some good runs and walks around town. Totally forgot to time any of them, because I was just enjoying the sun. Made my 4 day quota of exercise for the week, but it was all done it various different ways. One day I was shoveling snow, the next I was out for a run cause it was so nice.

The 'perks' of living in Canada, I guess :p

Halrawk - Week Update

Don't worry, I haven't forgotten about this blog. Just figured I'd update this week, instead of each day.

Did 2 days of 40 minute runs around town (lots of up and down hills). And 3 days of 40+ minutes of clubbells and body weight training.

What are clubbells you may ask.

 
I followed this routine one day, but this isn't a video of me. One day I think I will put up a video of me doing these things. Those diagonal sit ups to stand ups are freaking insane! I actually do them off a bosu ball, they are a little easier that way (I should say a little more possible).

I really plan on working on my shoulders a lot, I personally feel they are my weakest area, so I'll work em like crazy.

I've decided tomorrow I'm going to try a challenge. I'm going to attempt 100 push ups a day (which shouldn't be too hard), hopefully within a few weeks I can do 100 push ups in 1 set.

Push ups combined with clubbells should help me get a nice and strong upper body.

Also, just noticed I only hit 3 of 4 days last week. I blame Easter weekend :p
