Week 5

 I feel as though I have slowed down. I had a lot of motivation for the first week or two but then it kind of died out. I have still been working out, but not as much at home. I find it a lot easier to work out with my friends during PE than by myself at home. So if you ever end up working out make sure you find yourself a workout buddy or group. I have also joined basketball recently so it makes finding time and energy to workout outside of PE a little more difficult but basketball is a form of exercise so it works out in the end. I am still getting in the two days of weight lifting I have in PE and on top of that all the cardio and exercise that comes with basketball, so it's just a different type of working out in the end. 

On a completely unrelated note, go check out Hozaifa's blog/quora posts, he talks about a lot of really interesting Marvel stuff there so yeah make sure to check his posts out.

Week 1

I have always wanted to get myself into shape. I have always thought it would be a good way to look better, feel better, and in the case of soccer, play better. So, I have decided that this 8 week blog challenge will be a great way to keep myself accountable and make sure I actually do my workouts when I am supposed to. I am planning on doing a 4-day leg/upper body split. I will be documenting everything that goes right, everything that goes wrong, and everything in between here, on this blog.

Week 2

 Last week went really well. I was able to complete all the workouts while also avoiding injury. I have realized that it is much easier to get started than it is to continue. I mean this in the sense that, when you think about working out you think about it being difficult and energy consuming but it isn't as bad as you think so all you have to do is give yourself that little initial push and then the rest will be much easier.  As I said last week went really well, but this week is not going to go as well. I did one portion of the workout on Monday in PE but I decided to play basketball instead of workout for the second PE of the week. I also have the problem that I will have tryouts for IFC on Thursday and Friday so I don't want to tire myself out before those. I will try to get a workout in at least on Saturday, to minimize the amount I am missing.

Week 6

 For the most part everything has gone the same. There has been some steady growth but it has slowed down a bit since I joined basketball and only started doing twice a week weight lifting. I have still been doing a lot of exercise (other than the PE weight lifting), such as basketball practice and games, soccer open gym, and individual soccer training.  I mostly joined basketball because I found it difficult to workout on my own at home and I had way too much time on my hands with nothing to do. I mean I enjoy the sport, and being with my friends, and I also do want to help the team (if I can). But I mention the working out reason because it is most relevant here.
