I've been encouraged to do extra workouts in between the sessions - with running and swimming preferred. I've been doing Body Combat as I find that the most fun workout - however I did do 20 minutes running before a combat class this week.
So, my week consisted of:
SUN - 60 min PT session
TUES - 60 min PT session
THUR - 20 min interval run + Body Combat (60 min)
SUN - 60 min Body Combat
So it's not a bad first week - but it's not as much as I want to do.
My other major improvement needed is my day to day diet. I'm not the most enthusiastic cook in the world, so I just need something simple and easy to follow with my erratic schedule (my job means that no week is ever the same).
I'm going to follow a 6 meal plan - little and often as that fits my appetite rhythm quite well I think. I tend to get full up at main meals very quickly and then snack a lot at other times. I probably won't get it properly going until I move as it just seems better to make a fresh start with that.
I'm going to have these meals
Breakfast - Blueberry Porridge
Bean snack - Beans, tomato & Spinach
Lunch - Turkey Sub
Fruit & Nut - Banana + Walnuts
Dinner - one of spag bol, chicken hotpot, beef stew
Soup - home made soup with barley
My main change would be cooking all my dinners (and the soup) at the beginning of the week so I don't have to do it during the week (always my downfall). I know I get into things and don't follow them through, but I'm hoping the money I'm spending on the PT will help keep me focused.
