Day 17 of 45

(I've made the decision and commitment to step up my health and fitness in preparation for my first sprint triathlon.  I plan on keeping a daily journal on my progress.  Check out my plans here: http://bit.ly/ixs0xO)


I really stepped it up today with my workouts, though Insanity wasn't included.  It was an awesome day out and Maddie was at her great-grandma's house so I decided to take advantage of the time and get some swimming in.  I thought I did alright as far as technique, it was easy enough to get back into a rhythm again.  However, I was a little concerned about my endurance with it.  I'm really going to have to start learning how to pace myself better.  I love the fast pace of Insanity and the interval workouts but it's sort of put me in a "go-go-go" type of mindset.  Anyways, I might have to make Wednesdays another run, bike, or swim day.

So later in the day I decided to check out a Beachbody fit club rather than stay home and do the Insanity workout.  We ended up doing P90X Cardio X and Ab Ripper X.  I had a great time and was glad I made the trip out there.



Meals:
Shakeology
Feta & Spinach Pizza
Peanut butter and jelly toast
Chopped Salad
Shakeology Ice Cream (ya, there's a recipe to make delicious and healthy ice cream!)


Favorite meal:
Was there even a doubt?  I think the calories for the whole bowl of it come out to about 350.

Swam about 1000 yards
P90X Cardio X
P90X Ab Ripper X
