Focus T25 Day 7 (Total Body)<\/p>\n

311 calories<\/p>\n

Barely made it.<\/p>\n

I’d like to blame today’s subpar performance to this morning’s (unrelated) workout. This morning was also a total body workout, and I know what you’ll say about giving the muscles 48 hours to rest. Well, that may be true, but I fit in what I can.<\/p>\n

That said, I’m still having trouble on the pushup and plank exercises. I start out fine, but my arms quickly turn to jello. I had to get up a few times to rest. Of course, a few seconds later, I’d convince myself to get down and continue. I’d like to say that I’m making progress, but it’s tough to see when I’m taking breaks.<\/p>\n

However, by comparing the calories burned to days 2\/3, (I knew that Fitbit data would come in handy), I see that I burned more calories today (311 vs. 275\/290) and my cardio minutes have gone up (19 vs. 12\/12). So maybe I was pushing myself a little harder.<\/p>\n

And that is not surprising. In fact, my unrelated workout have been improving since I started the Focus T25 program. I find myself pushing myself just a little harder, and that’s a good feeling. Inspiration to do better can come from all different places.<\/p>\n

There is a famous picture of NFL player Kellen Winslow<\/a>\u00a0taken after the 1982 AFC divisional playoff game between the Chargers and Dolphins – the Epic in Miami, arguably the greatest football game ever played. After giving everything he had, Winslow\u00a0needed help off the field by his teammates. I use that image as inspiration for me to push just a little bit harder. If he could bring himself to the brink of dehydration and collapse after a grueling 73 minute playoff game, well\u00a0then I at least can get in 1-2 extra curls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
