I'll be updating regularly over the coming weeks as I participate in bootcamp.

Bootcamp is being run by my partners personal trainer through a different school group. I got to attend cause I have wanted to do sessions but couldnt afford individual ones just yet.

Today was our first 'real' session and boy was it HARD!!!
There was a LOT of running involved and I did at least 200 sit ups! Lots of lunges, squats etc. Our legs got a real workout today can only assume Mondays session will be an attack on our upper body/arms!

I'm not drinking either for the duration of the bootcamp to get the most weight loss I can get from it. I'm not strictly dieting but am being more aware of what I eat, cutting back take aways and fattier foods. I cant diet though, I dont think I'll ever be a successful dieter. I instead want to make changes I can stick to in the long term.

There are 2 prizes for the bootcamp. one for the most improved fitness and one for the most weight lost. There are a few bigger girls in the group so the weight loss one will be difficult and there is such a variety of fitness levels so wh knows who is in for a chance at that.

It has let me draw on my competitive side though and get motivated more tobe in the running to win either or hey even BOTH! LOL.

My personal goal for the challenge/bootcamp is to finally break under 90 kilos. Preferably be under 89 so that I am more comfortably under 90. That would make me super happy!

Wish me luck and feel free to leave comments, I love them for motivation!

I started bootcamp on Monday, and I am sore today!
We didnt even do all that much really! We did more assessing etc. I weighed in on his scales at 94.8 kilos (though it was late morning and I was fully clothed including a jacket) so will be interesting to see what I am at the end of the challenge on his cales.

I feel super motivated and good (after a week or two of health issues this is good!)

I'm challenging myself to 1000 minutes min excercise for May also. Its getting heaps colder at the oment so motivation is sure to wane at times and I have no gym membership anymore so I am left to excercise in the cold! LOL. I will do it though!

Dumb bell bicep curls
dumb bell tricep kick backs

I did all that today except the 5 km on the rower as I didnt have time so instead just did 10 minutes.
