Weekly goal setting #27
I was not here for a while, but now I’d like to go back to setting my fitness goals for each week. It seems like I have planned out more than half of the weeks this year anyway, which I think is quite awesome. I may need to restart the counter for next year again. Perhaps I should use 2022#1, etc.?
For a while now I have not been able to run (or leave the house for the most part). I was sick for over a month with what I hope did not develop into covid at any point. I think I may need to face the fact that I either make sure I can do my workouts at home, or I don’t do them at all most of the time.
Not being able to run is a huge bummer for me. I really learned to like it and depend on my running sessions to keep me happy. Now my ankle is busted after I fell of the ffing boulder, and during my first ever climbing lesson! I think climbing is an enjoyable activity, too, but I may be too heavy at the moment to do it safely. My ankle and foot have been swollen for a few weeks now, and when I start running, the pain comes back pretty quickly. I will go check it out, but it will take time to figure out what is up and even longer before I am well again. I thought a foot-ommitting home workout would be best in my situation, so I will try doing one three times a week (Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, with occassional changes).
This week I’ll do Wednesday (bc it’s Tuesday evening now), Thursday and Saturday. I came up with this sample routine for December:
It’s a beginner workout, with not much progression, but it’s regularity I’m after, not huge gainz. I will do pushups at an angle (a huge one). I also keep trying to eat according to my meal plan, but I will only weigh in at the end of this month. Weigh-ins do me no good when it comes to mental health.
Goals for this week: [o] complete workout 1 [o] complete workout 2 [o] complete workout 3 [o] eat according to plan (5/5 days left this week) Wish me luck! My weigh-in is at the end of December and I would like to stay sane thoughout the holidays, too.
