Feeling like I have slacked off in my training, I attacked my strength training workout with greater intensity. I pushed harder than I have recently, and it felt good to surpass my previous workout level. This is helping mentally too, which is important as race day approaches. I need to have the right attitude as I run the race, to keep me moving when my body wants to stop.
I also weighed myself today. 172lbs and 8% body fat. I'm happy with my current progress, as I only weighed 160lbs when I started training. I don't want to stay at this weight at all, so I'm going to keep up the training after the race.
Today I did the following:
- 20, 25, and 30 reps of push-ups with feet elevated18"
- 20, 20, and 30 reps bicep curls with 20lb weights, at a slow pace
- 15 20 and 25 reps of lateral dumbbell raises with 20lb weights instead of overhead dumbbell press, I alternate between these
- 40, 60, and 100 reps of sit-ups
