Description
I’ve noticed my mood and energy gets way worse when I couch potato and I want to build a habit to help prevent that.
Recent Updates
Mission accomplished. Now to keep it up, habit built :)
I keep forgetting to hit publish when I log at the end of the night.
Week 3 was great, using week 4 goals because I had accomplished everything and I’m ahead of schedule.
I also found a lovely walk near my home and have been going more than the goal just because it’s nice and relaxing.
Week 2 day 2 golden
Since I exceeded my week 1 goal and did week 2’s tasks, week 2 will begin with week 3’s goal. I want to continue the 5 day cycle just to maintain and establish the habit.
Week 2 Day 1 went as planned, for my walk I went hiking. I had forgotten the local national park required registration before entering so I went to the ‘recreational area’ and hiked something I’ve never done before. It was exactly what I wanted and had a beautiful view of the canyon.
Day 3, 4, and 5 completed but not tracked until today. Lazy weekend here I come!
Day 2 done. I’ve put on some entertaining youtube vidoes while I exercise in my living room. It’s nice because I can do both at the same time, and I would have done both either way.
Day 1 done. I’ve been walking on my work breaks, which is perfect for this. I walked more than the goal and once I got home, did all the others.
Estimated Timeframe
Jan 11th - Feb 11th
Week 1 Goal
My goal is every day to do 10 pushups, 20 situps, 20 lunges, 20 squats, 30 jumping jacks, and a 30 minute walk. I acknowledge this isn’t necessarily viable so doing 3 out of 7 would be a total success, but doing more is fantastic.
Week 2 Goal
I would like to either bump up the number of days or the amount I do each day. I think a 50% increase is a good goal for this phase. Either:
- 5 days of 10 pushups, 20 situps, 20 lunges, 20 squats, 30 jumping jacks, and a 30 minute walk.
- 3 days of 15 pushups, 30 situps, 30 lunges, 30 squats, 45 jumping jacks, and a 45 minute walk.
Week 3 Goal
For week 3, I want to maintain it. Whatever I do week 2, I want to keep.
Week 4 Goal
If I fail earlier, I want to resume. If I have maintained this habit through three weeks, it’s time to increase again. Either:
- 5 days of 15 pushups, 30 situps, 30 lunges, 30 squats, 45 jumping jacks, and a 45 minute walk.
- 3 days of 20 pushups, 40 situps, 40 lunges, 40 squats, 60 jumping jacks, and an hour walk.
