March 2021

 OK, like the previous month, I have increased the daily target steps to be achieved in addition to going to the gym.

Target:    Mon - Sat (27days):   7,500 steps daily

Target:   Sunday (4days):         5,000 steps daily

so going by the above target, this will get me to 2,22,500 steps for the month.

In addition to the no of steps to cover, I have also kept a target of 1,240 heart points (40 a day). WHO recommends a person to achieve 150 heart points in a week.


So, going by what I have achieved in the month, 

Walking:  2,48,436 steps   (exceeded the target by 25,936 steps

Heart Points:   1,240   (exceeded the target by 35 points)

So, I started to go to the gym within our community from 2nd March, under the guidance of Varun. So, I  used to do the below 

- Warmups:   Breathing, Neck, 2 leg squats, shoulder rotation.

- Elliptical Trainer (started with .3kms in 5mins and progressed to .8kms in 9m 30s)

- Hip Twists (50 x 3 sets = 150 sets)

- Push-ups (from an abysmal 3 per set, progressed to 8, 7 and 7 - 23 in all)

- Weights exercise for Shoulder, chest, arms.

So, in all March was very good and had enjoyed it so well,


February 2021

February2021 had 28days and I had increased the target of steps to be achieved but then I ended up not achieving the target.

Target:    1st - 19th Feb'21  -  6,000 steps perday
.             20th - 28th Feb'21 -  7,500 steps per day

Target for the month:    1,81,500 steps
Achieved:                      1,63,143 steps
Shortfall:                          18,357 steps

Looking at how I was going about my walking routine, I then decided that I will also get into some gym activity to achieve my desire to get fit under proper guidance.


   

Walking - January 2021

 This is how much I had walked in the month of January 2021.
