Hi people
I am long overdue for an update, and I was feeling myself this morning
so I decided to share some pics and get y'all up to speed with what I'm doing.
I have a workout routine I've been doing for the past month or so that I like. To me, it's borderline lazy so it doesn't drain me mentally lol but it gets the job done.
I do hill intervals 2-3 times per week on the treadmill--15% incline, sprint 8.5mph for 20 seconds, walk 1.0mph for 40 seconds, for 15 minutes..I warm up with a walk 2.0mph for 5 minutes before I start and end walking 2.0-2.5mph for 25 minutes, all on the 15% incline.
Twice per week I run outside about 4 miles at a 8something minute/mile pace.
On the interval days, my strength training consists of 5x5 renegade rows with a pair of 30lb dumbbells and 5x20 leg lifts. If I remember to plank, I'll throw that in there. On outside running days I do 5x5 steps ups with a pair of 30 lbs dumbbells and 5x30 glute bridges with a 30lb dumbbell on my hips. I finish with dumbbell swing intervals--20sec work, 10sec rest for 4 minutes.
Diet wise, it's basically low carb/high fat and protein. My macros on are like 1500cal, 65% fat, 30% protein, and 5% carbs on a good day. I mostly eat eggs, chicken, broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, cottage cheese, baby carrots, pistachios, whatever cheese I feel like eating at the moment, 2% greek yogurt, butter, olive oil, green tea, lemons/limes and an assortment of other veggies..I change it up occasionally when I get bored, but I just make sure it fits in my macros.
