Day 357 - Fit AF goal https://golifelog.com/posts/fit-af-goal-1640219744599

So I created a new goal for 2022 – Fit AF.

What
It’s me voting for my health by committing to workouts and runs that I used to do with ease.

Present state: Run 20m, walk 100m. Can’t even do a few pull-ups.
Future state at end of 2022: Run 2km without rest. Deadlift at least body weight.

Why
• Since the baby and pandemic arrived, I stopped stopped exercising
• Keto diet helped me keep weight off, but just diet alone is not enough
• Go beyond simply maintaining to thriving, from physical health to physical wellness.
• Cardio for overall health, and strength training for building muscle mass, increasing insulin sensitivity.
• Exercise better, not longer.

How
• Start laughably small, and progress incrementally
• I got the whole year to make progress
• No milestone targets, just increase load as I feel

Running
Every Monday at 5am, go for a 10min walk and return. Lay out my workout clothes on Sunday night to reduce barrier.

Lifting
Front-carry my son for his daily walks (~10kg) as a start
