My commitment of the next 90 days. 3 Months.
Short term measurable goals and activities are usually easier to achieve than vague long term objectives. So in writing this, I'm trying to see what kind of health+ objectives I can set up for the next 3 months.
My overall objective is health and fitness related. I want to develop my endurance and strength during weightloss but am not looking for hypertrophy (think cyclist-oriented fitness); I also want to improved balance and flexibility.
I want to exercise more frequently. I want to look fitter, ah, vanity!
So here goes. Time to be my own Yoda: "Do or do not, there is not try."
Types of exercise I will likely use
Cardio A - running 5kto10k program indoor on the dreadmill, paths or the pavement.
Cardio B - cycling - road at least 1 hr or Mtb HIIT at least 30 min.
Strength A - My Body is My Gym - push-ups, reverse pull ups, lunges, crunches, planks, etc.
Strength B - Gym full body
Strength C - Gym upper body, core
Strength D - Gym lower body, core
Mixed - A DVD 30 min (30 day Shred or the like) or Parcour
I commit
To identify a reasonable measures of my fitness (distance? strength?), to measure a baseline and to improve it over the next 3 months.
I will, at least 3 times a week in the morning - on waking, Strength A or during the day a mixed workout
+At least 1 a week a cardio activity
+At least 1 a week another activity, preferably a gym routine, but if traveling and not possible anything else.
No more than 2 days off each week.
Eat within my calories for the week without obsession. Track everything.
Have fun. Make plans.
And, my own little twist, include in this time at least 5x30 of language learning:
- 3 times a week (at least) of German learning, and
- 2 times of another language (most likely Arabic or Ladakhi)
- Days off 15 min language minimum.
No more than one day off every two weeks on languages.
What are you committed to for the next 90 days in terms of personal improvement activity?
