Fitness Goals: Helping Each Other Reach Our Goals

Ok. Managed to put together a very rough workout plan for the next couple of weeks. The plan is pretty broad as the intent is to just get me committed to doing the things on the list and not worry too much about finer details like amount of time or amount of weight. For example I plan to do at least one session from the BetterMe app that can vary from 7-10 minutes. I plan to get on the eliptical for at least 15 minutes but will go longer if the mood suits me. Once I get into a better routine of working out I will add more details. For now, my overweight and beat up body just needs to get used to some vigorous exercise again and then we can go from there.

Love seeing this! Still going as planned for the most part?

I haven’t been good about posting my fitness activities, but I do have one highlight from last week. I completed a new years training program on the tonal. The first workout and last workout were exactly the same and I lifted 1000 more pounds in the last workout than the first. So that means progress is being made and I’m getting stronger.

I started a new strength program called “Everyday Fit” that is more intense and is 4 days per week instead of 3. We’ll see how it goes!

Sadly, last week was abysmal. Work schedules and other life happenings made getting in time for myself near impossible and by Sunday I was wiped. Starting over this week and Monday was a disaster. Will stick to my plan as best I can this week but I know I will need to make some adjustments going into next week but this was also expected. It's clear that I won't be able to get in all my exercises after I get home from work so I am going to have to figure out a way to get in some time in the mornings as well as during the day at work. Trying not to get too discouraged along the way. I also have to keep checking in here more often as part of the process.

You should rewrite your PE class plans so that you teach your circuit all day. I mean, you have the keys to the bus... 😜

Funny you mention this. We are recording scores today for the push up test (we do this 3-4 times each year for goal setting) and I am planning to take the test with several classes today to get in my push ups. It's litte tweaks like this that I can do in order to make the progress I'm looking for.

I will probably put it both places. I haven't gotten to run through the app yet and see how it works; I'd like to keep tracking all of my workouts in my Garmin app (which I should be able to) and provide the data from there as well along with the FFG workouts. I'm sure it'll take a little bit to figure out!

Wanted to give a bit of an update. I have been tracking and working to get more movement into the days and getting back on track for eating. I am right around 60% for my push up/abs/mobility/and pull up routine. The goal is 75% but working to get that back into that realm by the end of the month, weekdays are easy just need to get a weekend day too. Getting more cardio in this week and hope to keep it rolling. Yesterday was cross country skiing while pulling our youngest, went for a run this morning, skating with the kids Wednesday, back to skiing Thursday, running Friday. Should be a nice way to keep it fresh and interesting.

As for eating just cleaning everything up. I have a set up that usually works for me, I have been whole food plan based for about 2 years so really just making sure to cut anything that is too processed. Right now chips are about the most processed thing we eat. Also just watching to make sure I hit the various groups of foods to get the most out of it. Starting to feel healthier which is the end goal really. Time to keep it rolling.

Hey that's a good price!

My weight has been fairly stable (i.e. within a narrow range) for years so don't need a new scale per se, but .. as I age I'm interested in maintaining what muscle mass I have .. so if this one gives consistent (if not completely accurate) measurements for that it'd be helpful to track over time. Thx!

On Waze scale: Interesting output on muscle mass - wonder how accurate it is. I'm at a point now of trying to figure out what affect my workouts have been on increasing muscle mass. However, I can attest to the fact that it has increased my on-course performance as I track distances for each club via Shotscope.  The improved performance via workouts have had a better effect on my distances then using a speed training device like SuperSpeed. 

FYI - one sobering statistic I read recently is that one loses 1% of muscle mass each year over 40, not sure how accurate that is.

I have read that statistic as well. However, I have also read multiple statistics that show that consistent weight training at any age significantly slows this loss, as well as increases bone density. It is truly NEVER too late to start working out! You can't get back lost time, but you can always buy more!

First day at 315 for deadlifts. Back in the day my max was 375 or 385, so I'm getting close to maybe being able to pick that much up again. I completed 3 of 4 sets; decided that the jump from last week was not worth attempting the last set as I was losing my form. I will keep the same set plan for next week; with either 4 or 5 sets of 4. 

I had to jet out early to go get my guys started for the day.  I finished my curls (second link) on my return to go shower up. 

Today's workout: Pull - https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/13839632219?share_unique_id=163 and https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/13841480992?share_unique_id=166

Coincidently there was a article in my Apple News Fitness section yesterday ; 

University of New Mexico health expert Dr. Abinash Achrekar spoke on the aging process. He said age-related muscle loss starts much earlier than people may think.

"The process, called sarcopenia, or age-related muscle loss, can begin as early as age 35," Achrekar said. "People can lose 1-2% of their muscle mass, with it turning into fat instead."

As aging continues, this muscle-loss percentage increases, especially for those who do not do strength-based training.

"After age 60, that can jump to 3% a year," Achrekar said. "That doesn't sound like much, but average adults who don't do regular strength training can lose 4 to 6 pounds of muscle per decade."

Is anyone doing asymmetrical strength training?

One thing my fitness instructor (my daughter) identified is that I'm stronger on my left side (coincidently I'm a lefty) then my right side. Last night as I was trying to get to sleep, I wondered what effect that has on my golf swing, since my weaker side is the lead or 'pulling' side and the trail is the 'pushing' side. Doing a bit of research this morning I found out that the 'pull' side has a bigger effect on the directionality and speed than the 'push' side. According to one research article - focus on the lead arm will result in straighter drives.  While that is not the result I'm looking to achieve, I'm now thinking that focusing a bit more on right side strength training might yield some improved swing speed results. 

Your thoughts?

This week has been better than last week but still missing some key components in my workout. Did a lot of push ups on Monday and Tuesday with student during their push up test and designed a core workout for our PE class that I did with them every class yesterday. Definitely feeling it today. Walking 18 this afternoon and then putting in my time on the elliptical tonight. Also working on eating smaller dinners until I’m ready to add calorie counting into my practice.

Not specifically but I definitely agree that any workout/exercise should promote balance, as in equal work on both sides of the body.

Super Speed training protocols include swinging on the non-dominant side.

I believe pretty much any PT you might see would have you develop your weak side to catch up with your stronger side.

Busy day today! This is the first time I've been able to even open up the browser and see what's happened on MGS!

 

Leg Day - https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/13884093512?share_unique_id=172

Squats felt a little heavier today; I haven't really figured out the best time of day to do them. I feel like sometimes first thing in the morning they are really hard to do, and other times they're easy. Today I wasn't able to finish my 4 x 6 @ 225, so I'll reload and try it again next week. Leg extensions and curls were taxing today, I skipped calf raises today as I didn't have a lot of extra time. They're already sexy enough.

Legs today were very tight. First outdoor run of the year, slow and painful. I have very recently been wearing orthopedic inserts in my everyday shoes, but did not put them in my running shoes. Not sure how bad that is going to hurt later, but it was definitely interesting feeling for the first 1/2 mile. I haven't really run for quite some time and it felt like it. I think as the weather warms up I will reintroduce morning runs before work and modify my workout splits to a 2 or 3 a week schedule instead of 4.

Do you not work out and basically the same time every day?  Your comment about the best time of day to do legs caught my attention.

Unless I have the day off, it’s always 0430 for me. Whether or not it impacts my lifts would be interesting but not terribly useful info to me…it’s when I workout regardless.

It's almost always 0530-0545, but depending on work schedule it will sometimes be 0800, 1200, or 1400. I have the same issues throughout the day, so I guess I'll chalk it up to general fatigue. I just hate having a sh**ty session when the one before was awesome.
