MAY FITNESS CHALLENGE RESULTS
For the month of May I decided to challenge myself and hit the gym every 31 days of the month. Obviously, rest is important for muscle growth so I integrated 1-2 active “rest days” each week, where I’d still go to the gym, I just did light cardio (walking on the treadmill) and/or some ab work. This help my muscles to rest and avoid being strained, but still held me accountable for getting to the gym every day and form positive habits in the gym!! Excited to start a new fitness challenge in June and track my progress :)
In my May fitness challenge, I focused on a workout regimen that pushed my limits while emphasizing recovery. The challenge included daily workouts coupled with at least 10,000 steps each day, and active rest days that featured light cardio and ab exercises. It was essential to sustain proper hydration, hitting 64 oz of water daily, and ensuring a good night's sleep for optimal recovery – about 8 hours. By the end of the month, the results were tangible! I lost ten pounds of stubborn fat, felt more energized throughout the day, and noticed a significant toning in my body. Most notably, my abs were more defined, and I experienced much less bloating. This challenge not only helped me physically but also sparked a motivation to remain consistent with my fitness journey. With June on the horizon, I'm thrilled to start a new chapter in my fitness regimen and continue tracking my progress!
