Phase II

Starting Phase II is mostly about adding cardio. No matter how much I needed to prepare for this change I don't think I am ready. Weight lifting is super easy and fun for me, but cardio is the hardest part of this process. I would rather eat my food unseasoned, wake up at the earliest of time, well really I would rather do anything fitness related before I do cardio.

The purpose of doing the cardio has to do with burning more calories and tapping into my stored fat so  I recognize the benefits of cardio but that doesn't make it any easier. This is likely the part that I will need to tap into any motivation, plan harder, and really just figure out how to just get this done.

The good news is the recommendation for cardio is to do it after weight training so I get to do the fun part first. I know from experience that I will need to build up my stamina, try to incorporate things I enjoy doing like running at the track, maybe hiking a mountain, or some type of play to complete the cardio.

In Phase 2 my goal is to complete the weight training process and get 4 sessions of 30 minutes of cardio once weight training is over.
