ROBBO REVERSE. WEEK 6 - DAY 7 - SUMMARY

Not a good workout week. Started it by sneezing, spitting out phlem and blowing my nose a 1000 times. I was even banished to sleep by myself, possibly due the blocked and runny nose (at the same time), and mucho snoring.
Could not workout Mon, Tue or Weds, but worked out Thur and today.

Due to the cold - I didnt eat as well as I could have - plus worked out less than I should have = first time since I joined the Gym that I lost Lean Body Weight. Pretty pissed off.

So need to work harder in the next two weeks, as I ll have to put on 5 pounds of lean muscle.

I was tempted to up my Gym sessions over the next two weeks, however I am just going to stick to my original schedule but make sure I work hard to achieve my 4 week goal.

2 days of rest then back on it on Monday.

Tomorrow should be a good day, eating out for breakfast, talk-in at Mood with John Anderson, Newcastle United home match, then going to see Warrior on the night at the cinema, with a bite to eat.

Completed Goals -___________________________________________________________________________________

Mind - Read The Inner Game by W Timothy Gallwey. Good book, useful tips for golf. Also used some of concentration techniques for running. Plus in general life terms it makes a lot of sense.

APPENDIX -

To understand why I am blogging, you will need to read the "4 Hour Body" by Tim Ferris. However if you cant be bothered, then here is the jist.

Most people who set fitness goals...Fail. The main reason is they have little motivation. After a long day at work it is easy to sit on the couch and not get up. If no one els knows what your goals are then it is easy to make excuses on why you didnt achieve them "ohh I ll start next week!!"

Tim Ferris says you need to A) Make specific short and long term goals B) make these goals know to as many people as possible.

Hence my blog, which I also post to Twitter and Facebook. The theory being you are more likely to put in the work to achieve your goals -  if people you know that people will know if you have failed.
