Hopefully your chiropractor has a massage therapist. Ask her/him tif you have a rotated hip. if so they need to work the muscle loose so the chrio can pop it back into place. Sometimes takes a bit. If your toes point a bit outward when you stamnd that very well may be it. I had this problem and 2 years of pain before we figured it out. Takes time to retrain the muscle memory but I walk straight and pain free. My toes always face due north

Week 6 is done! 22 minutes was not so bad but it was a rough day. Low 30s. Windchill galore. Second half was running into a brisk headwind rolling off the Ohio. UGH. But we did it because i FIGHT!! 12 minute pace but we will shore up the numbers after I finish the program Very easy lifting day. 3 sets of 5 @135lb Deadlifts 3 sets of reverse crunches x10

Week 6 Day 3 Deadlift 3x5 @135 ( easing back into it with the shoulder ) Reverse crunches: 3x10 15k Steps

GO GO GO!!

Yes mom <giggle>

Chamge NEED to WANT and lets get rockin <G>

Rock on. You're gonna do it!!

I think the goal of this program is to teach endurance not so much pace. That will build after the program if you continue to practice

3 weeks isn't that much. Not enough time for atrophy. Welcome back.

Almost. It's W6D3 today!

My best suggestions... 1) get some awesome music loaded on your phone! 2) RUN! 3) Have fun! Number 3 is really important.

Way to go. Leveling up your life is awlays a win!!

Some days you're the windshield and some days you're the bug. Unfortunately, I was the bug today. Shoulder has been botherring me for weeks. It's getting worse. Doctor said I injured something up around my traps. Most upper body stuff is now a now a no for possibly up to a month. Also on prescription NSAIDS. This throws a serious monkey wrench in my learning to perform the clean and jerk I'm down but I'm not out. I can still run, squat, push ups, planks, lunges and possibly deadlift. FIGHT!!

HAHA no. They had a pre release and haven't began mass shipping so people who got them early are trying to resell and gouge. They are 249.95 on their website and it's likely to be awhile before I fund one. I agree the steps are high but I do 13k steps a day + to make sure I've done 10k. They say it's an activity tracker. I think moving around counts as a step in their book because it has the same benefits. I also wear it because my insurance company gives me 15 points a day for 10k steps and they sync with Fitbit. 1500 points ( and I get points for other health things ) = 25 dollar Amazon gift card!

As you already know, I'm essenmtially Paleo. Technically Paleo + Dairy(possibly plus a small amount of occasional bourbon). I eat an Activia each day + cottage cheese. Much protein for building stronger muscles!!

Just answered that for you here ---> http://forums.zenlabsfitness.com/topic/1480-how-the-c25k-works/

Way to go Shaa!! But make sure to take tomorrow off. Nothing high intensity. Walking is cool but no running! Your body needs time to heal and it's the rest day when you build strength.

It keeps the time and tells you when to run and when to walk and when your done. It has a built in music app. it will mute the music when it has to prompot you for something. You can actually start day 1 and check it out and then do it again when you actually run. You wont hurt anything.

Welcome and good luck with the program!!

SCORE!!! Way-2-Go!!

Hang in there Missy, It doesn't actually matter if you do 60 seconds of jogging. All that matters is you jogged a second or two more than last time. If not, it was a bad day. We all have them but withoiut the bad day to set a baseline you wouldn't know how to feel so awesome on a good day. It's just about doing a tiny bit better than yesterday. You can do W1 D2 as many times as you need until you nail it and again, each time you repeat it, just increases the joy you will feel when you nail it. You CAN do this if you want it bad enough. I think you've got fight in ya!

Sounds like you have some good reaosns to do this. Welcome to the party!!

Welcome back!!

That's my story exactly Sharon!!

I wish my attitude were actually that great but it's not. I don't need to run. I gain all I need from diet and lifting. Running is pure entertainment for me. It's like looking forward to going bowling or playing volyball or Forza 4 on Xbox 360. I'm just excited for my entertainment <G>
