Excersise Log

Here I am recording my Exercise Log and sharing with you my exercise plan. I am going to start out with Couch to 5k and Strength Exercises by Tosca Reno (Author of: Your Best Body Now)

 How to Use the Plan

Using the Couch to 5k Training Plan is simple. Just start your training on week 1, and progress through the days normally. In the beginning, you will be doing lots of walking as warm ups and cool downs. Later on, when you’ve experienced long periods of running, you won’t need to walk as much. Around week 6, you’ll stop walking as a warm up. Around week 9, you’ll be done with walking altogether.

Tips

  • Stretch after every workout to avoid injuries.
  • If you start developing an injury, STOP running before it gets worse and take a few days off.
  • This is only a rough outline of the perfect plan for you. You can change it as you need to.
  • Don’t push yourself too hard when you jog. Go at a comfortable pace.
  • Hydrate properly and energize yourself at least an hour before you run.
  • Make sure you have the correct running shoes
Tosca Reno also has an equipment free strength training program in her book "Your Best Body Now" which I plan to start doing every other day.
