As most people return to work this week, it is important to keep fit while working. I return to work next Thursday.
HOW AM I KEEPING FIT WHILE WORKING?
AT HOME:
I am renovating my house, so I am lifting gyprock, debris, tiles, concrete, sweeping and vacuuming for hours on end. Yesterday I spent 4-5 hours sanding beams for our patio. When I return to work on next Thursday I will be doing a morning workout and perhaps an afternoon walk/run if work and time permits. I also have a cycle trainer I can use with my mountain bike. I have ordered two workout DVD's from JB Hi Fi which I am waiting on delivery.
AT WORK:
I am a High School Teacher in a State School which is pretty big in area. I run up and down the stairs to and from my staffroom and the office (in heels too). I constantly walk around my classroom and have between 400 and 600m from my staffroom to the classrooms I teach in. I easily get up to 5-9km worth of steps each day.
WHAT I DID LAST WEEK:
- Helped demolish walls more at my house - removed old laundry tiles and tile bedding. Sanding beams for 4-5 hours on Thursday.
- Eating more vegetables in dinner and lunches
CHANGES I'M MAKING THIS WEEK:
- Plan weekly meals
- Only 2 days of drinking, Saturday and Thursday - Limit 2 drinks.
- Eat all allocated ProPoints, try not to use Weekly Allocated ProPoints.
- Do more exercise, even though I am only working at my house doing renovations.
- Eat more whole foods instead of processed foods, eating every morning my mixmymuesli.
- Watch portion sizing - weigh and track everything.
- Eating fruit and vegetables instead of processed snack foods
- Doing a morning workout with My Workout on Lifestyle You channel or afternoon workout with Zuzana on www.bodyrock.tv - I must do these!!!! NO EXCUSES!
MY AIM THIS WEEK:
- Is to drink less and exercise more.
- Do more work on the house
- Do more free weight training
- 200 squats app
- 200 sit ups app
- Start running
- Walk the dog
- Ride more

We recently renovated a house so I know how hard it is physically. Good luck with the house and your fitness.

You really sound dedicated Im sure you'll achieve your goals. I know what its like to renovate and work at the same time Im going through that as well and to be honest its hard to find a balance and exercise as well as Im pretty exhausted when I get home. But this yr Ive decided to push myself to work out 3 times a week, alternating situps and stretches, pilates dvd, walk/jog. Meatless meal once a week and more salads and veggies. Mon-Wed is alcohol free. Good luck with everything I'll be following along to give you encouragement!
