Day 18 (of 30)

Feel good!

Last night at gym went really well until we got on the treadmill, Ty had forgotten his blood pressure pill and so had to stop running but we did 4ks on the bicycle and I beat my 3k time of 29 minutes with 26 minutes which I am really happy about!!
Tonight's plan I'm not sure of, maybe the super circuit.
I have shin splints which sucks, and I need to find something to help with it.
The ladies race on the 25th of August has a first place prize of R10 000, if that isn't motivation I don't know what is...

Day 17 (of 30)

Yesterday, Ty and I went to the gym again and I swam 26 laps of a 250m pool which is only 650m and Ty started with chest exercises at 45kg which is really great because before the op he was only able to do 30kg!! :D

Everyday is a test to see if you can beat whatever you did the day before and in Ty's case build stronger muscles and get to the level he wishes to be at. I'm really proud of him, he's accomplished more than anyone of his age in his circumstances. His motivation helps me when I'm feeling like there's no point.

So today's plan is cardio for the both of us because Ty's elbow joints are taking a bit of strain from the weights last night. The goal: 3k's in less than 24 minutes for Ty and less than 29 minutes for me.
Also we are planning to go to a killer abs class at 05h30 every morning - Monday to Friday, we'll see how that pans out. ;)

Day 12 - 15 (of 30)

So I got a little lazy and forgot to blog for days 12,13 and 14 but we did no exercise and managed to have a little bit of a crappy weekend because I was in a funny mood, I have one thing to report since we've started this 30 day thing, I have absolutely NO sex drive... AT ALL! I hope its part of this thing and it will return once we are all fit and healthy and sexy again.

Yesterday was day 1 of gym and it was awesome! We both started out with 3ks and Ty completed his in 24 minutes and me in 29 minutes. All in all I think it was a great start, today I am going to stay with 3ks but try beat my time of 29 minutes and Ty is going to do weights on his chest and shoulders, he will do cardio twice a week and me 6 times a week with alternate between running training and swimming and the other cardio workouts.

We took a couple measurements for day 1 and will update them once a week, every Sunday.
Ty:
Weight: 88kg's
Body fat: 20.4% (was 23%) - Ideal is 12%
Me:
Weight 81ks's
Body fat: 31% (was 33%) - Ideal is 16% (must confirm that)
