Hey everyone let me start by thanking you for all the awesome comments and response to my first post.
Today I’m going to be sharing something that has helped me achieve my fitness goals.
What I did first was to set an actual goal and date to achieve it. My mind works better that way. When I have a deadline or something to look forward to, I push myself even more. I first started with smaller simple goals and then pushed myself to do tougher things. I like to pick important dates as deadlines. I usually pick my birthday, a trip, to look good for summer, holidays, weddings, quincianeras ect…
Set a goal for yourself!! Whether is loosing 20lbs or gaining muscle mass or setting a challenge like 300 push ups a day for 20 days or something like that. This will give you motivation to actually do it and it will give you something to look forward to. I’m already planning on my workout routine for Halloween.
My first goal
Back at the beginning of the year I decided my goal was to be at 143lbs and have muscle tone by June. My birthday is in June and is also my Annual trip to San Francisco. I picked this deadline mainly because one of my friends told me that last year I looked like a little puerka(piggy) in San Fran. I ended up exceeding my goal by 2 lbs which was AWESOME. I was very happy with the results.
My workout:
A combination of interval training and metabolic resistance training.
Push ups Reverse crunches
Squats Mtn. Climbers
Lunges Crunches
Pull ups
Explosive high jumps
8Strikes 4 to 5 times a week.
Swimming
Spinning
HIIT ( High Intensity Interval training)
A combination of all of these got me from 158lbs to 141lbs.
I switched it around every 2 weeks so my body didn’t get used to one thing
My goal for September 1st:
August will be the month to push and push even more.
To reach 138lbs of toned muscle
To get rid of excess belly fat
I want to see all the muscles in my obliques and abs
I will focus my attention on specific muscle groups each day of the week to achieve maximum performance.
Mid August I will take on an awesome challenge (to be announced)
So this is how my mind works and maybe it will work for you. But the most important thing is to do it for you because no one else will.
So just do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
