Today's Challenge: Get both cardio and weight training in your life. You need both to truly move towards being physically fit. You've got this!
Going from nearly 300lbs, lacking energy, and motivation to where I am today is what's documented here. The highs, the lows and all experienced in between. This is my journey; as it continues.

Weight Lifting & Cardio
I have always focused on either lifting weights or doing cardio. I have never been able to do both within the same workout due to being just too tired. Well since I made the 50 miles in May commitment, I have been lifting weights first, then jogging; either outside or on the treadmill. I figure I should shred some pounds by incorporating both this month. I was reading that if you do both, weight lifting should be done first as cardio will negatively impact your weight lifting but weightlifting will not negatively impact your cardio. For me that's true but I know people that run several miles and them lift a rediculous amout of weight. So I guess it depends on the person. Either way, get it in!
