8 week program starting April 2018

Sunshine_And_Sand

Hey everybody! I will be going on a cruise this summer and am going to try to get in the best shape possible before I go (so that I can eat myself sick everyday for that week, just kidding). It's a little silly of me to try this since it's a cold weather cruise so that I won't be showing much skin anyway, but it seems to be as good a motivator as anything else.
So here's my plan: I am going to try an 8 week program that consists of all the exercises I already do and enjoy (spin, running, yoga) but with more structure than I currently have; I have scheduled all the workouts through all of April and May. I will aim for 1300-1500 calories most days (I don't have too much to lose) and probably do more like 1800 in Fridays to accommodate pizza night.
If anybody wants to do this with me, make up a program consisting of things you enjoy or dig up your old videos (firm, insanity, P90x, or whatever you have) and let's keep each other motivated.
I won't be starting until April because I will be out on a ski trip soon and a lot of the things I usually do won't really be possible up on a snow covered mountain. BUT you can start whenever you want.
At the end of your "program", whenever that is, let us know how you did.
Have fun!

Oh!! I am interested too. We have a couple different beach trips planned- one in July and one in September. I am 1 month in on the keto diet and ready to start adding in regular exercise- was only doing weekly elliptical work outs.

Sorry I'm late responding. Was on a ski trip and the internet/cell reception up there wasn't great...
I love the beach...
Just have fun with whatever exercise you pick. We can do this!

I'm hoping to be able to still do what I had planned for the next 8 weeks (a mix of yoga, running, and spinning classes) but I fell while I was on my ski trip and twisted my knee. I think I MAY have torn something. Pain is gone most of the time by now, but missteps here and there (mostly involving pivoting and extension) have been bothersome.
I'm pretty sure my run days will have to be walk days at least until I go see my ortho in a few weeks, but I'm planning to do what I can within any restrictions I get when I see the doc.

Day 2 finished! It was spin class, and the knee held up for most of the class.

I’m in, day 1 tomorrow. I have a trip in mid June I’d like to lean out for.

My exercise plan is daily running + lifting Tuesday & friday. I’d also like to start incorporating some evening gentle yoga to help me wind down.

I'd say we are all gonna look great for our trips/events!
