best swim work out so far... I think

Had a little time before outreach this afternoon and took the chance to get a swim in. 13 laps in about 30 minutes. I swam the last two laps with out the foam supports between my legs and actually started to cramp up a little probably not the best idea. The 13 laps felt pretty good, but now as I type my Achilles hurts and my right shoulder still aches more than the rest of my sore muscles. Still plugging away at it ... or at least trying

the pool seems forever busy, but I am still trying to persevere...

I did manageto get in a couple of 500 yard swims this week. Still hitting the 26 - 27 minute mark for swimming the 500 yards.

 

I also did some stationary bike work a couple times this week about 30 minutes each time. I have worked in a few sets on the dumbells as well.

 

I am praying for some motivation to start making the hard choices on the nutrition side of the equation I know this is the only way I am going to start to see any progress.

How do you get this fat and out of shape with out it bothering you all along the way?

incremental apathy leads to grand destruction. At least it has for me.

In an effort to start paying a little more attention to what is going on in my life, I made my first real attempt to swim a bit after a number of trips to acclimate to the pool (read - try not to drown). My first effort at 500 yards on Wednesday 1-31-07 was finally completed in about 26 minutes - sad, very very sad.

 

At least there were no harpoon's thrown while I flailed miserably. I am not looking for more speed or even a greater distance at this time, just consistency.

 

until next time,
