Too knackered to stand
Boxing Training For Fitness
In the picture, I’m doing exactly what Corney says you shouldn’t do.. stop (I will no doubt be told off for this:-). But I really did have to. I just didn’t have enough energy left to walk around with my hands on my head for the cool down. 🙂
I am standing by my first assessment of “Power & Speed 4” – it’s definitely the hardest of the 8 daily workouts – phew! Never the less I’m still improving – I had some good success with the round the clock press-ups and managed to fit at least 5 more press-ups in at the end of the 2 rotations.
I gave everything I had during the stance jumps and really wished I had filmed myself at the beginning of fightyourselffit 7 weeks ago to see how much more focussed I am now and how many more repetitions I can fit in. I wouldn’t be surprised if I’ve doubled my output from the starting week.
No matter how hard the daily workouts are, the photo shows my normal expression afterwards – the smile says it all – knackered but pleased I did it – it really does put me in a great mood for the rest of the day.
I’ve been eating clean for the past 7 weeks, with a few blips here and there. It’s not been easy all the time, especially when Easter hit and the kids thought it was a great idea to make a load of amazing butter cream cakes with mini eggs on top – oh how I wish I could have eaten them! But, as Corney says you can’t out-train a bad diet. There’s no way my results would be as good as they are without keeping a tight rein on my diet too.
People can often forget that weight loss, diet and exercise all go hand in hand. You won’t get results exercising and having a 6 pack of beer every night and you won’t tone up build/retain muscle if all you do is concentrate on a low calorie diet without a decent exercise routine.
Damn, I’m still thinking about those cakes! I mean butter cream, cake and mini eggs – seriously!!!
Cheers, Steve.
