March

Here’s to completing my second month of my workout plan! I can’t believe this is already the 8th week. It’s crazy to see where and I started, where I am currently at, and the goals I am still working towards.

I originally started this journey to stay in shape both physically and mentally. There is something to be said about the confidence booster I feel every time I walk out of the gym. I have noticed a difference in my confidence since getting on a regular gym schedule. I am more confident about my body, but I have also gained confidence in meeting new people and putting myself out there. I think a lot of this confidence has to do with feeling less stressed out with projects and school work. I am able to better prioritize what’s important and what’s not by having to divide my time up between classes, the gym, and hanging out with people.

It is also rewarding to start seeing results in my arms in legs. My muscles are more defined and are starting to look fairly toned. It is very motivating to see these changes and helps push me to keep going to the gym to continue to improve what I’ve started. Overall, I am very happy I have stuck to this routine. It is a positive change I have made in my life and it has more of an impact on my health than I thought it would.

With this being said, I feel like I have developed a good routine for myself and want to continue to do the same things I have been doing. I have decided to not make a calendar for this month. I am happy with running between 3.5 and 4 miles two days out of the week, biking one day, and the other three days are dedicated to weight lifting. This routine has worked for me and I want to continue with what I am doing. I am happy with the results I have gotten so far, and can’t wait to see what I will look like within the next two months!

Monthly Stats

March was full of weeks that were mostly made up of rest days. But I’m sure this won’t be the case for April, especially as the weather starts to get sunnier and warmer!
