couch to 5k

caroline. college student. learning to run, one step at a time

I only did 12 minutes of the 30ds today because I’m so tired from work. It wasn’t even a very good 12 minutes because I stopped a lot. Meh.

Day 5: My endurance is getting better. I was able to power through most of the cardio circuits without stopping. Abs are also improving, although those bicycle crunches at the end are soooo hard for me. Strength is where I stop a lot, but I am improving in my technique, and I can do more consecutive pushups now than I could on Day 1 So far, so good.

Day 4: This sucks and I hate it. No I don’t it’s fine, I’ll keep on. I did stop A LOT today, but I powered through the last cardio unit without stopping. It wasn’t a great workout day, but I’m so sore and tired from work + the other days I think I’m doing alright.

Day 3: I skipped yesterday because I was on my feet at work for 7.5 hours and I was exhausted by the time I got home. Today was still hard, but I already feel more flexible and I’m better at completing the crunches than I was three days ago.

Day 2: So hard but I tried to push through as much as I could with how sore I was from yesterday.

Day 1. It’s only 20 minutes and it kicked my ass. Just walking up stairs immediately after was hard.

considering the 30 day shred to kick-start fitness. i’ve heard it’s a pita the first week, but i’ve been basically sedentary for months and now i work at a hamburger joint which isn’t helping my couch-potato life.

after 30ds, once i’ve built up some muscle, I think I’m gonna try the insanity work-outs
