I’ve been in a workout funk lately…

With recently taking a new job, working longer hours, stressing more easily, I have to confess that I haven’t quite been able to get my normal workout in and my eating habits have oh so slacked off lately… I feel best when I get to exercise at least 4 times a week and I’ve been averaging 2 crappy workouts a week   As a result, I realize that I have to get back into the swing of things and have a fresh start… I haven’t felt my greatest lately and have a streak of minor illnesses which I know is a direct result of my poor eating habits… So, as I sit here today, trapped in the midst of a blizzard, I have decided that today is the day that I’m going to refocus, redirect, and get back to my previous healthy ways!

I plan on drafting up a little bit of a plan today – after all, I am a huge obsessive planner, I can’t help it, so I am gonna do it right!  I hope to share with you my “return to health“, affectionately called RTH, plan later today, since after all, we are snowed in!  I hope if there is anyone reading this that feels the same “funk” I have been feeling lately, that maybe you will join me on my RTH!

As part of this plan, I’m trying to factor in convenience to my plan for practicality… I’m thinking about quitting my gym (gasp!) and buying a cardio machine for my house so that way I never have an excuse to slack off… I’m thinking this way I can workout before work OR spontaneously (get a quick workout in whenever I feel like it!)… I had tweeted last week that I was looking at buying the Nordic Track X5i Incline Trainer and I was wondering if anyone has had any experiences with it?  If so, please email me and let me know your thoughts

Hope wherever you are… you are safe & warm!
