I am feeling pretty proud at the moment...
I am entering my 4th week of the 12WBT which is the week to do a second fitness test.
In the very first week we needed to not only weigh in, but take our measurements and complete a fitness test that consisted of:
seeing how quickly I could run 1km
seeing how many push-ups I can do in 1min
seeing which level I could do a full sit-up at (ranging from arms straigh out front to arms straight above head with 3 other options in between)
seeing how long I can do a wall-sit for
seeing how far past my toes I can reach.
Well I did my fitness test today. I have a feeling I could do the run slightly quicker, however it had been raining outside, the ground was soooooo sloppy I was really worried I would slip, fall and twist my knee (it wouldt be the first time that had happened!)
despite not going full pelt I still shaved 1 1/2 mins off my run time from the first fitness test!
I also added an extra 7 push-ups to the amount I can do in 1 min, went from not being able to even do a level 1 sit-up to being able to do level 3, went from a 57 second wall sit to a 1min30sec wall sit and increased my sit and reach from 7cm to 12.5cm!
I was feeling proud enough about that but then when I did my measurements I found I have lost a total of 27.5cm from my body in the past 3 weeks!
So I am definately feeling very proud of myself, I am seeing results in both my body and my fitness which is really exciting! It really helps with my motivation to keep going and see how much more I can improve.
