New Phase

Yeah, I started working out again and I am starting a New Phase. This phase will last for the entire month of December and I will change things up a bit in January. I am going to focus on really working on my upper body, particularly my shoulders. I know it's going to be really difficult during this holiday season to eat clean. There are goodies everywhere. I am going to limit my cheats to twice a week. Wish me luck!
My workout today was plyometrics and cardio. I did 20 minutes of cardio and did stuff like box jumps, air squats, Turkish Getups, mountain climbers and some core work.
I did receive my book, New Rules of Lifting for Women and I am only on the third chapter but so far I like it. The author is entertaining and it's an easy read. The book begins with Rule #1 and I am only at Rule #10 which I really like. Rule #10 is "Endurance Exercise is an Option, not a Necessity for fat loss"! That's my favourite so far considering that I don't like doing lots of cardio.
Maybe when I am done, I'll do a book review!
