sjcoray's Journal, 18 January 2013

Much better workout day yesterday from the day before (no flopping - it helps when I don't have time to flop), and from a few days before that. I didn't feel like I was going to die 5 minutes into the treadmill.

I've been trying to determine just how to do this, because my workouts tend to have more than just one element (running and lifting, elliptical and abs) - do I try to do harder, faster, stronger for all the elements or just for one at a time? I fear overloading a little if I try to do them all. But I think I've figured it out.

For the running I am back following a C25K program (this one has the option to extend for a 10k, which I plan to take) - so that will help me push with the running and for the weight lifting, I'm going to increase by one rep each time I workout until I hit 20, then I will return to 12 and increase the weight and move back up. I think this will allow for some overload, but not so much I can't sustain it.

So. Last night's workout:

Run 30:00, 1.96 miles
3 x 13 @ 55 - bench
3 x 13 @ 60 - lat
3 x 13 @ 30 - tri

...I may add bicep curls in eventually - but my arms are so frickin huge, I'm kinda hating their size right now, so I'm trying to wait and make sure they decrease a little before I add another lift.
