Training for Fat Loss
I am currently training for a sprint triathalon, the danskin. It is 1/3mile swim, 15mile bike, and 3.1 mile run. My main goal is to finish, buuuuut....... I really want to lose more bodyfat. I was sick of just having the "lose bodyfat" goal. I got bored, so I signed myself up for something that was TOTALLY out of my comfort zone!
I dont know how to swim very good. So I took a few lessons and now I am practicing at least 3x a week. I hate to jog...booooooooooooring!!!!!! But I have been jogging at least 4x a week. I do love to ride bikes! woohooo!
To keep my strength and definition I am doing weight training at least 3x a week.
This training schedule is not something I would recommend to someone who want to lose some bodyfat. I am not saying this is what you have to do. As a matter of you should do MUCH less than this! Just to let you in on my workouts this summer I will post them here.
