Thought we could post what we’ve been doing.

I’ll start by posting a link to the new challenges I joined at nike.com

I started back up my Gym workout. Found at [url=http://”http://skinnyguy.net/”%5DSkinny Guy Workout[/url]{_{Not advertising, just this is the workout that I’m doing}}

So far its been going good, I feel a lot better.

I’ve started going to Mission Street Yoga. The teachers, the energy, and the workout is amazing. I still hurt from Saturday, but in a good way. Hopefully I can start going twice a week and jogging the other days. Just need to finish finals first.

So after running in the Army-Ten-Miler (ATM) in October I had to take about three months off from any type of exercise and even avoid walking too much. Now that I’ve been cleared to run again I’ve started going to the gym three times a week. I decided to lift weights and do exercises that my doctor gave me to strengthen the muscles in my hips and upper legs. I’ve also started to get serious about my core strength and so have started back to doing push-ups and sit-ups. Along with that I’m trying to swim at least twice a week to improve my lung capacity. It’s also a good way to cross-train and loosen up my legs. So that’s what I’m doing now. I hope to gradually increase my mileage again and run the ATM in Oct. 09.

So I was still having trouble running and was only able to run in the cold for a mile and half and inside on the treadmill for two and half miles. After getting an MRI done the specialist I was seeing said nothing was wrong (no broken bones or torn muscles. My right hip is just inflamed from over use. He said I could keep running and told me to try taking Advil before every run to try and control it. I hate taking medication, no matter how small the dose, unless I absolutely have to. I’m already taking medicine for my asthma and other than those I try to use natural remedies. So anyways, I’ve decided to give my hip another month of rest and will hopefully be able to run pain free in March. For now I’m sticking with weight lifting, swimming, biking, and a 40 minute yoga DVD workout.

Monday: Strength training focusing on back and chest with rounds on the heavy bag.
Tuesday: HIIT
Wednesday: Strength training focusing on bicep and tricep with rounds on the heavy bag.
Thursday: Nothing.
Friday: Strength training focusing on shoulders and legs with rounds on the heavy bag, then HIIT.
Saturday: Nothing.
Sunday: Endurance run at leisurely pace.

Monday – Friday is a pretty strict diet with controlled proteins/carbs and little to no sugar. Lots of water (almost 2 gallons a day).
Saturday (and to a lesser degree sunday) – Pizza night with snacks and all the junk food I want which, strangely, isn’t all that much since I started working out more.
