Overweight and doing something about it

Started week 2 of the 12 Fat Blasting Program.

On Monday, I did the strength training routine, I need to up my weights.

Today at lunch, I completed a 20-min intermediate HIIT routine. I just have to say, I love the feeling I get after I complete an HIIT, I love me some endorphins.

I’m sure by now you’ve heard of the new weight loss drug Alli and the awful side-effects it causes especially the one about anal-leakage. Now, I’m curious, have you been witness to someone purchasing Alli? Well, I was in CVS the other day and the dude right in front of my bought some and all I kept thinking about was manpons. Thanks Big Black!

I tried my first HIIT workout* today. Man ol’ man. I could only do 20 minutes of it before I began to gasp for air and repent for my sins. No joke. My routine was:

5 minutes warm-up

1 minute of 14-level resistances going as fast I could.

30 seconds at the 2 resistance level

Repeat for 20 minutes.

5 minute cool down

I don’t know if it works, but it is first time my t-shirt was drenched after a workout on the ellipitical. I mean soaking-wet. I’ll stick with it as my lunch time workout for about a month, because its quick and effective (hopefully).

*Spinning is a HIIT workout as well and since I take a class at least twice a week, technically it isn’t my first HIIT workout.
