Well here it is, my first long term goal for 2009. I’ve decided on 13 weeks to achieve 70mm skin folds. JD and I talked on the phone during the week and this is the figure he would like to see me at. Yesterday I sat down with my S.M.A.R.T. Model and worked everything out. Above is my chart for the 13 weeks and below is my rewards system. You’ll also notice that none of my rewards are focussed on food, instead they’re things that will help me towards achieving my health and fitness goals.
All that’s left to do is take my skin folds, divide that figure by 13 and that’s how many mm’s I’ll need to lose per week.
Although things won’t be without challenges. During the 13 weeks I’ll have surgery again followed by six weeks of detox but nothing worth having in life ever came easy so why whould this. As long as I’m moving forward with a positive frame of mind I’ll succeed.
My new training program is written, printed out and already in my gym bag. Daniel and I have worked out what days we’ll train and at what gyms seeing we have two to chose from. So not only will we have each other there for spotting and fault correction but we’ll also have some variety in equipment and gym’s to use. We’re both pretty excited about where things are heading now. Daniel’s still working towards competing again this year and I’m here to support him any way I can. We want to live a health and fitness lifestyle all year round, no more on season off season. This is only the beginning for the both of us.
I can’t wait to wake up tomorrow morning and hit the gym with vengeance.
