M4:D82 (D382) When is the time right?

November 11, 2008 By Michael Mahony, ISSA CPT Leave a Comment

  

What's on my mind today?

"I'm not ready yet."

"I don't have the time."

"I will be starting next week."

These are all excuses that I've heard for not working out.  Each time I hear these things I wonder when the time will be right for these people.  The reality is that it will probably never be the right time for any of them.  The key for everyone is to just get up and do it.

When the original Group Shred began I was in an interesting spot in my life.  I had been doing the New Rules of Lifting program for several months.  The Group Shred was exactly what I needed to push me into a full fledged effort to change my body.  I didn't think about it at all, I just jumped in and got to work.  While I don't believe in telling people to do exactly what I've done for the most part, I will say that just jumping in seems to be the best way to get started.

If you try to set a date for starting a new program it will never happen.  You have to just do it.  Don't think about it.  Don't plan the date for it to start.  Just get up, go to the gym and get moving.  Once moving, keep moving.  That's the only way to get the job done.

Today was interval cardio.  I got on the elliptical trainer and brought my heart rate to 145 BPM and kept it there for two minutes.  I then let my body recover to 105 BPM.  I repeated this process for 30 minutes.  This method of doing intervals is supposed to raise my fat burning target heart rate.  We shall see what happens when I go back for more testing.
