Thought I would keep my word and post progress as I go....ten months on. Start of this year on Jan 1 did 75hard again (did it ages ago). Was more for the mental side and get discipline in check. First three weeks was basically on the road looking after a six month old while my misses was working at Adelaide open/aus open as a physio. Forced me to be really disciplined and managed to have have those two trips and another work trip away and came back with lower reading on the scales. Am doing the year long 75 hard thing so three phases of thirty days throughout the year. Have done the first thirty as well. Am down around 10kg so far aiming for another ten by end of the year.
Haven't drunk this year or since mid dec actually so nearly six months. Had drunk less and less over last couple of years as in benders so wasn't much of a change but will probably aim to go for the whole year then maybe ongoing or one blow out a year with the boys. Not really a wagon to fall off.
Aim is to do things outside my comfort zone this year. Started doing five minute rows as part of last thirty day challenge. Near the end I looked for indoor rowing competitions. Saw state champs are coming up saw I could be potentially competitive so just entered. It's in three weeks so now have to learn to row properly and get fitter in that time. Aiming to do the 1min max distance, 500m,1000m and 2000m.
Currently
1min:355m
500m: 1:27
1000m: 3:16
2000m: still got to test that far haha
Also doing some running training to try do 10km fun run in July. Ran 5km on the weekend which was furthest I've ran since 2021 when I broke my ankle.
Hopefully can tick both of those events off and continue on some consistent weight loss.
