Today is Day 1 of Week 5 for T25. One more week before I move on the Beta cycle and step it all up a notch.
Decided to push myself a little bit today by running my fastest 10km to date (59:57- I'm still not "fast" but I'm getting a LOT better) and then following that up with a much needed session of 'stretch'.
My current dietbet ends tonight at midnight. Barring a catastrophe, I will make my final weigh in with no issues as I am currently wavering between 1 and 3 lbs under my goal weight. I find this dietbet process a little taxing, but I'm not sure it would be any easier to try to lose weight without something to keep me accountable.
I have about 20 lbs to lose before I am done trying to lose weight and shifting my focus entirely on muscle training. If I succeed, I will have lost almost 100 lbs, and will have truly transform myself inside and outside. So now I am trying to decide if I want to do another 4 week challenge (which would bring me about one third of the way) or if I want to go for a longer term 'transformer' challenge (which would take me the entire way). I still have a few days to figure it out, but I will likely reinvest some winning into going a little bit further than I am now.
35 more days of T25 before moving on another program. I'm feeling torn between P90X and Insanity...I really like Shaun T's style a lot, but may want to test out a new trainer for a few months. Either way, I know that I will be doing another Beach Body program as this system really is one that works well for me physically and mentally.
Great game, everyone! Thanks for playing along! See you next time :)
