Les Mills Combat: Week 5

Week 5 of Les Mills Combat was great. I'm not getting tired of this program, at all. I still look forward to each workout (but I have my days, you know we all do!!). This week, my motivation level was HIGH! I really wanted to kick butt in my combat workouts and I did. But honestly, I could've done better with my weight-lifting. My mini goal for the coming week is to push hard with the weights. I wanna have sore muscles all week ;)

Results: -3lbs. Current Weight: 160
Monday, 3/4: Combat 30
Tuesday, 3/5: Combat 60-Extreme Cardio Fighter & Bis/Tris
Wednesday, 3/6: Combat 45-Power Kata
Thursday, 3/7: Combat 30 & Legs
Friday, 3/8: Combat 45-Power Kata
Saturday, 3/9: REST DAY
Sunday, 3/10: Combat 60-Extreme Cardio Fighter & "Mahe's Lightnight Leg Workout"

And now a special "treat" for the 2 of you who actually read this... embarrassing workout footage for your viewing pleasure!!! I uploaded my very first youtube video to my channel (which I've had, but never used, for like a year?). The quality is really crappy... but I was still figuring it all out. I'll get the quality better next time. If there is a next time!!! This is just a few short clips of Power HIIT 1 (which is from the current week I'm in, Week 6).

Les Mills Combat: Weeks 2-4

Okay, so obviously I have been a little behind on keeping up with blogging. But here goes! I apologize to the 2 of you who actually read this. Haha. 

Combat has been going great!!! I seriously am still LOVING this program. It's kick @$$! 

I have been doing pretty well with my working out and eating with the exception of week 4. That was kind of a bad eating week for me. Also, I have cut down the amount of calories I burn daily pretty drastically. I used to burn 1,000+ calories each day I worked out and that rarely ever happens now. However, I'm still losing weight! I think this probably has a lot to do with adding Shakeology to the mix because it curbs a lot of my sweet tooth cravings and also starts my day off on the right track. I'll drink it in the morning and then think, "well, I better not waste that healthy shake by eating this _____." 

Here are my results for weeks 2-4. 

I have also created a fit oriented instagram. SN: fit_mahe ... If you're on IG, come check me out!

Week 2: -1.5 lbs.

Week 3: -2.5 lbs (surprisingly, since as you can see, hardly worked out)

Week 4: +0.5 (not surprised... eating was pretty bad)
