Must Push Harder!
"Change is uncomfortable. If you want to change your body composition (fat to lean muscle) and you're comfortable during your workout, take it up a notch! Your body will adjust to the intensity and change. We promise.
During your next workout think... 'Am I comfortable? No, my muscles are burning, my heart is pumping, my breath is steady and I can feel the oxygen feeding my body. Every breath I take is another step toward my goals." K&K
This is SO true, the past month I've been in the gym for 2 hours day, but I don't feel any more 'toned up'. So today when I go to the gym I'm going to step it up a notch- instead of running intervals between sped 9.5- 7.5 over 5km I will run at speed 10 and go down to 9 if i feel too tired!
Also, when I work out by myself I always take way too many breaks!
Something I am going to try is the wednesday morning running club that my gym has- its for an hour every wednesday morning- should push me! And also I will do spinning more- this is one of the only classes where I feel like I have been pushed to my limits! My gym has them at 9.30am everyday- so I will go twice a week- unless I start work- and then I'll do the 7.30pm class!
