Plans in Place!

Today after work I met with Tom to form his weekly workout routine. :) I was mainly just showing and critiquing strength exercises so he would know what to do, how many times and how to preform them properly. You can do as many reps of whatever exercise you want but if you aren't doing it correctly, it ultimately doesn't matter how many you do because you are doing it wrong. Therefore no results, just wasting time.

The workout schedule is as follows:

Monday- Bi's, tri's and back & 30 minutes cardio
Tuesday- Legs & 20 minutes on the stair master
Wednesday- Core & cardio
Thursday- Legs & 20 minutes on the stair master
Friday- Chest, shoulders & 30 minutes cardio
Saturday- Mega cardio (at least 40 minutes, preferably an hour)

The exact workouts and meals for each day will be logged in this lovely..

 

Tom made this FANTASTIC binder upon my request. In it are separate tabs where we will log exercises, meal plans, macronutrient intakes, progress pictures, weight logs and the recipes for each day the emeals prvides! Brilliance. I LOVE it.

 

 

Still plugging away with school. I'm learning about fats and lipids in the body right now. Very interesting. It's important to remember that fats and lipids are necessary in the diet, even when trying to cut weight. Dietary fats carry fat soluble substances through the digestive process improving digestive absorption. So go ahead, use a little olive oil instead of cooking spray when making your veggies or add some avocado or nuts to your meals. Those healthy fats keep your body functioning properly :)

 

Happy Saturday y'all!
