Killer Bs, what kind of week are you PLANNING on having? A good one? A great one? A flying-by-the-seat-of-your-pants-and-see-what-happens one?
They’re all decent choices!
I usually prefer the middle one (a great week), personally, and I’ll tell you exactly how I can almost always manage to achieve it:
By PLANNING ahead!
Over the weekend, I sit down with my paper calendar, my digital calendar, my trusty white board, a bunch of colorful pens, and (in no particular order):
- I PLAN my work week
- I PLAN my workout outfits
- I PLAN my free time
- I PLAN my meals
- I PLAN my appointments
- I PLAN my grocery list, and (most importantly!)
- I PLAN my WORKOUTS
It can’t help you with your job or your groceries, but the always-free Mini Challenge is here to help with a PLAN for your week of workouts!
Here’s how the Mini Challenge works:
- Choose a GOAL – weight loss (for weight loss) or body shaping (for maintaining your weight and improving your fitness)
- Follow the WORKOUTS for your goal – if you’re losing weight, each day’s effort should feel very moderate and consistent (because weight loss over 50 is driven by eating the right number of calories consistently); if you’re shaping your body, one day should be an intense push (you choose which workout, any of them can be intense!), one or two days should be very relaxed and the rest of the days should feel mild to moderate. Changing your intensity is what changes your body.
- FITNESS MATTERS is a weekly podcast that you can enjoy any time – during a workout, on your commute, while grocery shopping, etc.
