I have received a e-newsletter addressing one of the questions that may enter our mind after weeks of starting a brand new workout regimen. Why am I not losing weight?
One of the things I had forgotten since the P90X days was the "plateau". Once our body finds a groove and is no longer "confused", it burns as if we executed the same amount of aerobic activity every day. A and I have been running 3 days a week, mainly on the same pace. What we haven't integrated into our regimen yet is sprinting. There's nothing like a quick shred of fat than short bursts of high intensity training. That isn't to say that we haven't been doing any of that during the week. With the introduction of "tabata", (normal protocol is performing this hour long mega-cycle 3 times a week) we can be sure that the metabolism will pick up and results will be visible in a few more weeks.
Nutri-dense veggies and colors all the way! Except for the occasional chocolate cake, of course...
Eat 3-4 meals a day, and watch portion control!
And that's all I have today, folks. Remember...
EXERCISE MAKES YOUR BRAIN FUNCTION BETTER AND HELPS YOUR EMOTIONAL STATE.
Thank you, Tony Horton.
