Sticking With it This Time...I Hope

Well, it's been over a month and I'm still going strong.  X-biking is kicking my butt, and I love it.  Although my three-times-a-week classes have sometimes been cut back to twice weekly due to childcare availability, I'm still going.  I love that my endurance and strength increases exponentially after just a class or two.  It helps that the trainers are so friendly and great motivators.  I actually don't want to let them down!  We use Trixter X-bikes, X1000 I believe.  Love them.

Also, bodybuilding.com has been my trainer for weightlifting 5 nights a week.  I've been following Jamie Eason's 12 week weightlifting program.  I'm in the middle of the second phase and I am so impressed with myself!  I finally have muscle definition and my strength has increased so much!  After I complete Jamie's program, I will probably stick with the second phase for a little while to maintain my strength.  I might try Brendy Scheerer's program too, it looks like fun. 

By having programs to follow, I've been better about sticking with a program and pushing myself to improve.  When I just try to do it on my own, I find that I only do what I'm comfortable with and I don't improve.  I love that bodybuilding.com is free too!
