The Ultimate Challenge

Since I have started attending college I have not exercised with any sort of consistency.

My diet isn’t the best either. It’s full of fried foods and lots of carbs. I tend to blame this on the lack of tasty foodstuff in the caf, but in reality I’d pick fried foods over salads any day.

This laissez faire attitude towards being healthy and staying in shape will continue no more.  So after much research I have decided to take part in the following:

• 100 pushup challenge
  
• 200 situp challenge
  
• 200 squat challenge
  
• Couch-to-5K challenge
  

I am going to start the first 3 challenges today, and the running challenge when the weather clears enough for me to run without slipping on the ice. Each challenge is designed to be completed in 6 weeks, but since I’m doing them all at once I am going to make it 12 weeks, and repeat each week’s schedule twice.

The situps and squat challenge will take place on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

The Pushup challenge will take place on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.

The 5k challenge will take place on Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays (weather permitting)

I will update on my progress every week, or every other week. Fitness here I come!!!
