A little bit about me; I am a 26 year old male. I work as Program Coordinator at the SRC. I am out of shape. Ive always struggled with staying in shape and being healthy. Only once in my life have I ever felt completely fit. That was back in my sophomore year of college. I buckled down, followed a strict work out and diet regimen, and was very motivated. I went from weighing 215 leaving freshmen year in college, to weighing 168 before college started up again. Then college started, and fitness went out the window and partying took over again. I gained everything back.
Since then, I haven't been motivated at all to do much. I've tried to get back into working out again, but could never keep it routine and I had other commitments including work and school. This past summer is probably the most motivated I have been in recent years. I have lost 11lbs and feeling a little bit better. But, there's a ton more for me to work on, and I am excited to get started.
Next week I begin Fall Shape Up. I have never worked with a personal trainer before, but I am looking forward to see what they have to offer. I feel like I know more about fitness and working out than the Average Joe, but there is always something to learn.
I did my assessment today and actually felt pretty good about it. Thought I was going to do alot worse than I did. My blood pressure was good, my VO2Max needs help, got 71 sit ups in a minute, and 46 push ups in before exhaustion. Hopefully, I will improve on all of them by December.
My goals are to lose between 20-30lbs, lose a few inches on the belt, lose fat and gain lean muscle. I do not want to add any more size to my muscles. I am hoping to be more athletic, flexible and overall live a more healthy life.
Check in next week for an update.
