WOO HOO EVERYBODY!
I am so excited about our group! I wish everybody could join us and have the comradery (ok, can't spell today!) we do.
You all are to be commended!
GOALS MADE:
FIVE
GOALS MISSED:
NONE
That's right! We were 100% this week! I made sure and got in my four days because of ya'll!
BUT it's okay if you don't make your goal. PLEASE don't let that stop you from checking in. That's what we're here for, encouraging!
Like last week when I didn't make it, seeing how everyone else did, made me want to try harder.
It also paid off weight wise. (see Weight Loss Group Check-in, if you're trying to shed some lbs.)
TIP FOR THE WEEK:
MIDDAY WORKOUT ROADBLOCK
Work (home or office) demands or hunger pangs trying to keep you from exercising. Melatonin, the chemical that makes you sleepy, is actually at its lowest production at noon. You may be alert, but physically your blood sugar is dropping and you're too hungry or weak to exercise.
Overcome it by scheduling your workout. Either eat some first, then exercise or just cut back on noon exercise and finish up time later. But always eat something before exercising (about 1/2 hr. before is best) even if it's a banana to give your body the carbs and sugar it needs to exercise.
One study showed that midday exercisers actually have increased productivity. So if you want to exercise middle of the day, go for it!
Again borrowed from Runners World website. Also modified for all exercising not just running. Thankfully some MSrs do still run, not me! It wouldn't be a very pretty sight!
Keep moving and stay healthy!
Take care & God bless ya!
