Nutrition
Still a work in progress. Was not terribly good for sticking to nutrition especially as evidenced in my September 29th post but those days are much, much fewer than they once were. Thinking of getting back to more protein and less carbs so I don’t eel as hungry between meals during weekdays. I still have healthy snacks in between meals but still feel hungry afterwards.
The Week Ahead
Managed to stick to 5+ workouts each week the last 2 weeks. Looking to continue the trend the upcoming week. Will need to have to come in early one day of the week for a client call so I will need to plan ahead and do a shorter workout that day.
Have now tried Eoin Finn’s Blissology DVD yoga set. The yoga is vinyasa-based so there is a lot of overlap with the moves as seen in the P90X and P90X2 yoga workouts, obviously presented with a slightly different flow. There is also modified moves but the advanced moves are crazy hard. Something to aspire to and improve on every week. The toughest workouts in my mind were the Monday (All Around) and especially the Friday (Strength and Stretch). The vibe that Eoin Finn exudes is a laid back, west-coast surfer dude spiritual style. Me, the one thing I like is the Indonesian scenery in the background. Very beautiful and peaceful.
Post is now done…just now need to remind myself to carve out about 15 minutes every Sunday to keep doing this!
