July 29th 2010 Daily Update

Weight measured in at 77.4kg and 20.0% body fat. Not concerned with the slight weight increase as that will just be a natural daily variation and I was up earlier this morning than normal. Good to see the body fat down to 20.0% for the 2nd day in a row however need to have 3 consecutive readings before I formally record it.

Morning

No morning exercise today. Left the house at 6:30am as was presenting at an early morning meetings at work. Should be back to normal for tomorrow for morning exercises.

Evening

I enjoy the Kenpo X session of P90X however I am very uncoordinated! My punches and kicks probably wouldn't harm a gnat! I'm told my co-ordination will improve, so patience young Jedi!

• P90X Kenpo X (448 kcal, 116/150bpm, 43:02, 07:33, 00:00)
• Sprint 8 elliptical = 255 kcal (294 kcal, 152/166bpm, 00:43, 05:41, 13:52)
• Sprint 8 elliptical alternating = 229 kcal (281 kcal, 149/164bpm, 00:41, 13:07, 06:40)

On the Sprint 8, the first session was in a forwards direction, the second session alternated between forwards and backwards every interval repeat. A number of my more recent Sprint 8 workouts have not pushed me as much as I would like, probably due to some level of tiredness, however this evening's first session was back to a good, hard workout.

Summary

Progressing well overall and I remain on target for 12,000 kcal this month of cardio on the machines (59kcal to go!).

484 kcal on the machines (11,941 month to date)
