Today is another reflection day for me. Lately this has been a regular thing. I've started to think alot about my entire past and where I want to ultimately end up. That has led me to do more and more reflection lately.
I've realized that in order to fully realize all my dreams I need to find a way to make a passive income. I started to read a book called Your Portable Empire: How to Make Money Anywhere While Doing What You Love and it seems to be just what I need. At the same time, it launched me into a long journal entry about my future plans. More on that in a future post.
Today was a measurement day and I was pleasantly surprised by the results that I got. I did 30 minutes of HIIT today. It was intense. I did intervals of 3.5 mph and 8.5 mph with 30 seconds each interval. I did a 5 minute warm up and 5 minute cool down and 20 intervals. My heart rate was soaring after about 5 intervals. I really had to push to make it through the entire workout.
Eating was good today. It was raining all day, so I made sure to just have my food with me. That helped me to stay on track for sure.
As mentioned, I spent some time planning in my journal. I also spent some time reading about bulking and nutrition during that time. I will spend a little time each day studying bulking nutrition so that I will be ready for my bulking phase in February.
Not much else to report on today. I am about to head off to bed.
