yay!
I have two goals:
* my daily activity points target (2)
* my weekly activity (14)
I'll up it each month or so to keep challenging myself to do more.
I just got back from jogging today. Here's been my record of activity lately:
SAT - jogging - 3 laps - 10 min
SUN - big fat nuthin'
MON - Core Rhythms - 20 min
TUES - jogging - 6 laps - 20 min
My goal is to try and alternate jogging / Core Rhythms from day to day to work my body differently, keep from getting bored, and keep from getting sore.
We'll see how this goes! I'm trying to work hard to not push myself too much on jogging - last time, I pushed myself to do more each time, and I quickly went from 3 to 5 to 8 to 10 laps, and it was too much too soon, and I got burned out and frustrated because I couldn't keep up the pace. Plus, I didn't have Core Rhythms to balance it out so I was jogging every day. Now, my goal is to keep with 3 laps this week. Up it by one lap a week. If I jog more laps (like I did today), that's great, but now my expectation stays at the original laps per week, it doesn't go up if I happen to decide / be able to jog more later on in the week.
I still have 20.5 points left to eat for today and it's 4:30, so I'm feeling pretty good.
I am sad, however, that 20 minutes of jogging is only worth 2 points! I counted it as medium instead of high intensity because although I call it "jogging", I combine jogging and walking, so that it's roughly 2/3 jogging 1/3 walking. SO, it's not high intensity all the way, nor is it low intensity all the way. So, I need to be happy with the medium. Although I'm not :) Perhaps once 20 minutes no longer seems like a big deal, the 2 points'll be nothing.
