Summer has concluded. Depending on which region you’re in, it’s most likely time to properly clothe yourself. That doesn’t mean you can just let go until the next summer/beach season. Stay committed, motivated, and fit! Here’s your fitness challenge for October:
Mon-Fri:
Do a 15minute run 3x during the work week.
I recommend doing these runs in the morning, but you can do these at any point in the day.
Along with the run, do a core/strength routine.
100 abs of any choice, 50 push-ups, and 20 lunges per leg.
The total time this shall take is 30minutes. 30 minutes out of 24hours?
Sunday:
Each Sunday morning, before the necessary brunch, complete a 20-30minute run with the same core/strength routine as you would during the week. Bring a friend!
Push yourself for the month:
Try to find a yoga class for you to participate in at least for four sessions this month.
Each class can count as a post-run core/strength workout.
Find a local 3k or 5k run to challenge yourself to this month.(This can count as your Sunday run)
Your run can count as a Sunday run. Push yourself! Be competitive!
Diet Challenge:
After every run/workout, eat a healthy salad!
Salads (healthy ones) help burn fat even when you’re not physically moving. Salads continue the workout for you. Don’t add unnecessary fat to these salads. Super greens such as spinach and kale, soy beans, and not too much dressing should work just fine.
Eat red meats once per week!
Red meats such as beef, pork, etc. can be tough for the heart to breakdown, which can cause your body to work overtime when breaking down your food. This overtime causes your body to utilize extra energy, which could be exerted in a different fashion. Red meats tend to make you more lethargic.
