August Review

Posted on the 02 September 2011 by Thesecretlifeofjen

August has come and gone so quickly! I should be doing an assignment right now, which is due tomorrow(!) but this is way more interesting  ;)

Here is what my August looked like (click to enlarge) -

August ReviewTime to re-visit my August Goals.  So here was an + overview of my plan, and = how I measured up.

+  Exercise 23 out of 31 days, to see an improvement of 15% from July.
=  I achieved this exactly… 23 out of 31 days with some sort of moderate-vigorous activity, without really trying(!)  Awesome  :)

+  Aim for walking 40km over the month of August, beginning to jog.
=  Bit of a fail here.  I walked 28.99km, but… I did start jogging.

+  Weekly yoga and step.
=  I missed 2 step and 2 yoga classes – I guess that is what happens when life gets in the way.

+  Complete 30 Day Shred level’s 2/3 once a week.
=  Excluding the week we moved, this is achieved(!)  And all level 3′s.  I am still doing modifications, but definitely seeing some improvements  :)

+  Track calories in and out – every single item of food will be recorded.
=  I tracked calories in and out 27 out of 31 days.  I am pleased with this, but some of my tracking was very much a guestimate ;)

+  An improvement in my average calories burned, anything above 2260 cals.
=  My average for the month of August was 2456 cals burned!  I think that has alot to do with the week of moving though…
