Something has got to give. I
can’t keep pushing things back,
especially when I cant afford it.
I’ve been pushing back the day
since
it arrived. I told myself that on
October 1 I would get back to it.
Even though i’m pretty limited on
time I don’t feel like that is
a good enough excuse. I should
forget about everything that’s
holding me back and “just do it.”

Before I begin, there are
some things I need to develop
first. I will need a few items
before I start to get back into
the
groove. Some would say these are
very important but others
probably think that i’m just
wasting time. When I start
something, I like
to make sure that I’m prepared.
Without the following items, I
don’t think that I will be able
to enjoy myself.
 

 

I have to find a way to come
up with:
 

 

• Decent pair of running shoes
• Earphones
• A workout plan

 

Up until last week, I thought
that I would be able to start
working out again but there was
so much stuff that I had to take
care
of. I got a new place, so I was
busy packing and moving. Just to
make sure I don’t allow myself to
get too much out of shape, I like
to go for a long run or a jog at
least on my days off. For about a
month now, I have been feeling a
weird pain in my knee and I
think it may be due to either
running on hard surfaces, or me
needing a new pair of running
shoes. I changed my running
surface but
I still felt pain, because of
that, I’m going to decide to buy
a new pair of Nikes
. Right now, I have
a pair of Air Max and before
those, I had a pair of Lunarlons.
Nike has a a variety of running
shoes and I usually can find a
nice
pair for a reasonable price at
the Tyler’s Outlet.

While adjusting the earpiece
on my earphones, I accidently
broke it off. The piece is meant
to be adjusted so that the
earphones fit comfortably. The
headphones that I have are not
cheaply made, or maybe they are.
But up until yesterday, I had
adjusted them before every
workout without them breaking.
The Powerbeats3 are the
perfect earphones for me. Even if
I forget to charge them the night
before, the earphones have a fast
charging feature that gives an
hour of listening time after only
5 minutes of charging.Since I am
no longer covered over the Apple
warranty, I’ll be charged a
repair service charge of $99. I
only paid $130 for the earphones
so I’m debating if I should buy a
new pair or just pay for the
repair. I’m not in too much of a
rush to decide because they
earphones still work. It’s just
annoying because one of the
earphones keeps falling out of my
ear, especially when I start to
sweat.

Once I get a new pair of
shoes and I replace my
headphones, I will start working
out regularly. Since May of this
year, I haven’t had any routine a
regimen. I took a class on weight
lifting earlier this year and it
taught me a lot of different
workouts rangning from common
exercises like dumbell curls to
olympic weight lifting exercises
such as power cleans. I just know that I have to make sure to incorporate both cardio and weight training to ensure optimal fitness. I’m excited to finally start.
