All the experimenting for the last couple of years has come back to this. I *need* to get into top shape in the next two months so it's going to be an all out blitz similar to what I was doing when I started P90X. I won't be doing P90X but here's what I will be doing, starting Saturday:
Saturdays: I'm going to sprint up a hill, walk down, and repeat until I break down in tears.
Sundays: Nice easy run, anywhere from 4 to 8 miles depending on how I feel after the hill-tearfest.
Mondays: My morning class in the . . . morning (natch) and then a session of One-on-One with Tony Horton in the afternoon and then karate. Triples. Talk about crazy. The next two months are going to be brutal.
Tuesdays: Morning class followed by interval sprints at the track. As many as I can before it looks like I'm no longer sprinting. That might be two in the beginning. =)
Wednesdays: Morning class, afternoon with Tony Horton, and then karate. Triples again. Yikes!
Thursday: Morning class and an afternoon with Tony Horton.
Friday: Morning class and an easy run, whatever distance my legs and stamina will carry me (hoping for that 4-8 mile range again).
I will quickly restate my disclaimer from a while back: I do not advocate this kind of program for anyone that doesn't have mental problems.
To fuel this, I'll be going back to my effective but boring routine of eating with a minor twist. I'll be eating lean protein and lots of vegetables. I'll be limiting the starches and pretty much eliminating sugar (like I eat much sugar anyway). I'm going to start at about 2100 calories a day, which is probably going to be way too low but I'm just using it as a starting point.
Have to run do an errand for my mom so I'll continue with the nutrition portion of this program tomorrow.
