quads are very sore but it feels good to work the muscles - it will not take long to build up strength. I'd like to build back up to 50 push ups! First goal: FIVE. :D
Today's strength training: upper body. Did 25 pushups in two sets (1 reg, at least 24 from knees); lots of triceps, shoulders and chest using 2.5kg weights (3 sets but not following specific plan). I should use pyramid system and follow specific exercises. For first week, anything I do will be an improvement however! Not sure how much to exercise/rest when sore.
Tips I've gleaned:
* drink water first thing
* drink protein shake after weights workout
* drink more water throughout the day
* more veggies
This week really is a 'record and review' week, to get used to journaling and to get a sense of what my nutrition is like (although I have cut my calories down to 1500 to spur the weight loss now, with an aim to increase lean protein and decrease booze/sugars).
I also need to set goals. According to FS I will lose 1 lb per week eating 1500 calories and doing no extra exercise. 1 1/2 lbs would be ideal but this might be too optimistic over the long haul.
Really not impressed that FS gave a warning when entering a weight that was one pound heavier than previous day (logged as 'dramatic weight gain - 7 lb per week' in the message, or something similar). My weight will fluctuate throughout the week so it is weird that I was encouraged to modify the number before saving it. Otherwise a very good website/programme.
