Continuing Forward.......

My 24 Day Challenge is over, and I've had great results with it.  The "challenge" is over, but my journey to being the healthiest and fittest "I" can be isn't!  Being fit doesn't end after 24 days, it is a lifelong journey, a lifestyle.  In my prior blog I shared my Christmas goal.  The 24 Day Challenge helped jump start me toward that goal, but it's up to me to continue forward to reach it.  So what am I going to do to get there?  Below is my game plan:

Nutrition:
Eating 5-6 "clean" meals a day, to keep my metabolism increased.
Drinking 96 ounces of water a day, to replenish my muscles, keep me satisfied, and flush out toxins.

Advocare Supplements:
MNS-3 (Metabolic Nutrition System)
SPARK Energy Drink
Catalyst (Amino Acid)
10-Day Herbal Cleanse (after Thanksgiving)
Meal Replacement Shake (breakfast)

Exercise (in addition to the classes I teach, I don't usually count those as my workouts):
Day 1: Heavy biceps/triceps/shoulders
Day 2: Stair Climber 30 minutes & abs
Day 3: Heavy legs
Day 4: Heavy chest/back
Day 5: Stair Climber 30 minutes & abs
Day 6: Cycle (I do count this class since I'm on the bike for an hour!) After this current session ends I will replace this with Stair Climber.
I'm also doing the Squat Challenge.  125 squats 3x a week!

Why am I choosing the stair climber?  I'm starting my training for the Fight For Air 70 Floor Climb in March 2013.   March 2012 was my first time participating in this event.  I climbed 70 floors in 12:28.  I placed 28th in my division and 224th overall (out of 826 participants).  My goal for 2013 is to finish in 11:00 or less!  As time goes on, I will increase my stair climbing time, and days.


Yep!  I reached the top in 12:28!!  Here's looking at 11:00 in 2013!!
