Ok binge is a strong word but I have been in the worst shape of my life for around three years now, mostly due to starting to smoke...
I am currently in Africa related to work. My wife called me three days after I got here and told me that she is pregnant with my first child.
That was about three weeks ago. Since then I have given up smoking and purchased a heavy bag and some gloves and eased my way into a program.
I wanted to post todays workout and coninue to do so for a little encouragement and input from the experts here.
I am currently 178 lbs and my goal is to get down to a lean and fit 165 so that I can fight again at 155.
Enough of the set up, here is todays workout.
8 Minute rounds x 3 no rest between
5 minutes on spinner bike, 3 minutes jump rope = 1 round/24 mins
5 laps around our house which includes inclines and steps = 8 minutes
3 rounds of 3 minutes of sloppy punches on the bag =
9 minutes
1 last 3 min round of jump rope = 3 mins
So that was about a 45 minute cardio workout... I had to work to get to this point and I hope to continue to improve.
Thanks for reading!
Just wanted to post to say congrats on the kid!
Good luck with your goal!
It was a bitter time in my life. So I started smoking.
