One of my struggles with my job is maintaining a health lifestyle. I feel so much happier when I exercise and eat healthfully, but sadly they are the first things to go when things get busy. It's really no wonder that so many new attorneys gain weight their first few years on the job! I did pretty well my first year at the firm. Part of my success was due to the fact that I ran my first marathon this November. But since finishing it, I've felt so burnt out on exercise! And, as a result, I haven't been feeling as happy and healthy as I'd like. This week I've been focusing on exercising, even if just a little.
Monday: run two miles, legwork at gym
Tuesday: bike 15 minutes on trainer
Wednesday: lift weights for chest, arms, and shoulders
Thursday: legwork
Friday: nada
Saturday: short weighlifting
Sunday: full-body toning workout (abs, legs, chest, shoulders, arms, back)
You can tell that I hit a slump mid-week, but I'm proud of myself for doing at least something on most days. This week I'm going to focus on lengthening my workouts a bit and adding more cardio to my routine. Slowly but surely I will get healthy again!!
