So I joined the gym last week and I booked in for a session with one of the fitness instructors to create me a workout programme. First of I was weighed and messured and my body fat percentage and bmi was taken to see where I'm at fitness wise, this is also handy for comparing in a few weeks to see if I'm making progress. (Because if I'm not making any progress then what is the point?!) So my programme starts off with using the row machine to warm up before stretching and then doing 20minutes of internal training on the tredmill. Then I move on to resistance training using different weight machines two different machines that work on my arms and two different machines that work on my legs. After the weights I use hand weights to do lunges and squats and then I use the weight balls to do some ab work and then I cool down and stretch and I'm finished. This work out normally takes about 1hour to 1&half hours long, and I've been pretty knackered after each session. I've been today and yesterday and I'm planning on going again on Thursday and Friday at least this week.
I've also been eating majorly healthy everyday, eating tons of salad and fish and baked potatoes and tons of fruit. As well as making my self loads of delicious smoothies. I use frozen raspberries, blackberries, red currants, black currents, mango &passion fruit frozen yoghurt and orange juice... and they are super filling!
I'm so determined to get into great shape for this holiday and to lose weight. So I'm definitely going to stick to this healthy eating/working out plan.
This week I also purchased tickets for myself, my sister and my niece to go see Bugsy Malone in London. After my holiday to America I'm taking my niece to London for 3days for her 18th birthday and we're going to see WICKED THE MUSICAL on the first night and BUGSY MALONE THE MUSICAL on the second night and then we'll probably do some shopping and sightseeing as well. Lucky for us my sister lives in London so we have a free place to stay which saves us loads of money.
Anyway, that's enough for now.
Blog to you soon
xoxo
