My Body is My Temple

So for about the past 3 weeks I’ve made some pretty big changes in my life. One of them is I have started to workout again. I joined Lifestyle Family Fitness, which I love. It’s great I have never been so motivated to workout. I have a personal trainer which I have seen about twice a week so far. He is great and he knows exactly what needs to be done and is very good with his clients. This next week I’m on my own… not by choice.. if I could afford to do more personal training I would I think its really worth it. But since not everyone is a millionaire we work with what we can. I do plan to get more time with him so that I can expand my workout and keep it fresh.

So what are some of the other changes? Well I’m not drinking sodas anymore. The last 3 weeks I have been replacing almost every drink with water, hence the picture above. I have only had a Coke product once during this period which I think is great since I would have one at least 3 times a day. I have to say I feel better and with more energy too since I did the switch. Now I have to try to work on drinking more. I have only been able to drink around 1.5 liters a day but since I’m working out I was told I should be drinking around 3 liters. That’s a lot of water.

Last I have started to run again which I am very happy about. So far I have gone from being able to run only 15 mins for about 1-1.5 miles to now 3.3 miles in 30 mins without stopping. My breathing has become better and every time I run it becomes easier. My goal is to get my mile down to about 8.5-9 mins. That means I would have to run at the speed 7.0 to be at 8.5, right now I’m at 6.5 so far. 0.5 might not seem like that much faster but it is and on top of that I would have to do that same speed for about 30 mins without stopping.

If your in the Tampa Bay area and want to start to work out I would recommend Lifestyles. Also if you want a great personal trainer try Chad Golding, C.P.T. (my trainer). You can call him at (813) 447-0277 or email him at changyourself@netzero.net. From what I know he works out of the Lifestyles in Hyde Park, Tampa.

Hope to see you at the gym
