Puffin and Huffin Training Journal

I'm on the road to recovery after a neck/shoulder/bicep injury so want to track my progress and remember not to push it too fast.

Goals and reminders:
- to re-establish my workout routine in my daily schedule
- to monitor how my body feels and not push too hard, too quickly
- to remember I can't start where I left off
- to take a week at a time, review and build up gradually
- nutrition, 2L water daily, limit to 2 coffees daily

This coming week: Sun / Tue / Thur / Sat
- 30mins treadmill (walk/jog intervals)
- stretches

Not flash, but it's a start. Again.
I've noticed my weight hasn't changed much (+1kg) but I feel quite a bit 'softer' all over. Hopefully, if I'm not doing weights yet, the cardio will help me maintain and/or lose fat.

Hey way to go Puffin! Sounds like this will be an inspiring read. Good to see some sensible goals.

Eeek!! I've fallen off the wagon. Haven't done a thing. It's dark when I get up, when I leave for work and when I get home so I'm not motivated to go out to the garage and workout alone. I know it would be easier to do if I was doing weights because I like that WAY more than the cardio grind, but not so. It's cold and I feel like hibernating.

I've cut down my coffee, which is one good thing and upped my water intake. I've also started taking Spirulina and Flaxseed Oil (not fishoil - blahhh) so I'll see if that makes any difference to how I feel, energy wise.

SO, let's start AGAIN, again.
This coming week: Tue / Thur / Sat
- 30mins treadmill (walk/jog intervals)
- stretches

Bring some dumb bells from the garage into the home and this may inspire you to do a little something which is way better than a lot of nothing.
