I've been so bad with blogging lately. Hell, I've been bad with going to the gym and everything else. It's just been a busy month.
I got back on track today, though. I went to Newbody and I'm glad of it. I also took my weight again.
Weight - 162 lbs
BMR - 6067 kj
1450 kcal
579 (omega symbol)
Body fat% - 28.6%
Fat mass - 46.4 lbs
Lean mass -115.6 lbs
I'm not sure how Aaron calculated the water % so I'll just leave that out.
Anyway, it's going well. I'm running a lot. The Mississauga Marathon 10k race is on May 5th and I think I'm going to be ready. I'm going to run 8 or 8.5k on Sunday and am going to take it easy, run-wise, during the week. I'll do BodyVive on Tuesday instead of Friday and a yoga class or something like that on the Thursday with usual Newbody on Wednesday.
I also figured out how many calories, give or take, I'd burn during some of the classes I love. I'll make a post about that later. I forgot to memorize how much BodyFlow burns. (I think 320 or so, but I'll be sure)
Finally, new measurements. My weight is down to 162lbs. My measurements are a bit less, too. Neck is at 12.5", waist at 34, hips at 41 (same), and chest at 34. Win win win. I hope I can keep it up.

Fitness, ramped up
Again, it's been a long time since I've posted.
I've been hitting the gym two to three times a week when the kids aren't sick or when I'm not too busy. Usually twice a week, at least. On top of that, I'm running again.
I signed up for the Mississauga 10k on May 5th and am hoping to make it to the proper distance in time. It's five weeks until the race and I have to add 6km to my distance. It shouldn't be too hard, considering all the awesome cross-training I've been doing.
I had a followup consultation with my PT, Aaron. We did a couple of tests.
First was a test on the spin bike. You keep your speed at or above 70RPM and every 30 seconds you increase a level of difficulty. I made it past average and up to 15.
Second was the squat test. How many squats until you just can't do it anymore? I did 40 squats.
Third was the pushup test. I hate pushups. BUT, I managed 20 in a row without a break in reps. Oh, and modified pushups. One day, I'll do normal pushups.
Anyway, it's going well.
Weight progress is good, too.
Weight - 163.4 lbs
BMR - 6073 kj
1452 kcal
589 (omega symbol)
Body fat% - 29.4%
Fat mass - 47.8 lbs
Lean mass -114.6 lbs
Water 52%
I'll keep it posted and updated in a widget. Let's see how things go.
