Well it’s week 7 of the #OneSmallChange challenge! I’m happy to say that my week 6 change to regain control of my day and ever-growing to do list went very well. My planner is my new BFF and I’m feeling less stressed.
So what’s the change for this week?
I’m sticking with the theme of planning – planning my strength workouts.
I’ve been reflecting on the good and not so good of my training and racing this year, and one thing that sticks out for me is my inconsistency in strength-training and cross-training. While I had days ear-marked for strength work, I didn’t have a concrete plan for what to do during each specific workout. If I’m being totally honest, in the absence of a workout to follow, my approach was sometimes willy-nilly.
Going forward I’m going to detail my strength workouts, mapping them out each Sunday for the week (and tracking them along with my runs). Hopefully this will help me to build the consistency and strength I want.
Tell me do you follow a strength/cross training plan or do you tend to wing it?
