Week 17 and 18

Week 17: October 4, 2010 and Week 18: October 11, 2010

It’s been a couple of weeks since I last posted but I’ve been up to lots at HAC. The biggest change is for the last two weeks I’ve been participating in Jesse’s morning boot camp. This was a piolot test for class and so far I would give it a “thumb’s up.” The class consists of roughly 15 people and meets Monday through Friday at 5:30-6:15 am. (yes, that early!!!) It was initially tough waking up that early but I have really gotten used to it. I was initially planning on keeping my individual appointment with Jesse on Saturday but after the first week I realized that my body needed a break.

The class consists of roughly 10-15 minutes of dynamic stretching and warm-up followed by 30 minutes of different individual and team challenges. It has been fun to get to know some of the other participants throughout the process. If you are someone who is looking for a new way to motivate yourself this would be a great class to take.

I have been also attending Jesse’s G-Force boot camp on Fridays. I consider this my “two-a-day.” Just like high school football way back then. This is a great class to really push you at the end of the week.

I’m currently about 15 pounds from my goal weight! I’ve come a long way but I don’t want to stop until I’ve reached my goal. My plan for the next two week is to finish out the morning boot camp, continue the G-Force boot camp, and run twice a week using the plan that was developed for me based on my VO2 Max testing. I am also meeting with the Harbor Weight Loss Nutritionist next week at a local grocery store to get healthy shopping tips.

I’ll tell you more next week!
