September 2, good resolutions in September

There is no better day than the first day of school to start with some new resolutions (I'm a teacher).

What are my new resolutions and how will I make them work?

1/ Eat better (eg healthier) and more regularly (easy with the fixed breaks at school). I will go to the farm market weekly and I will put those veggies that are about to spoil in the freezer or in a fresh homemade soup!

2/ Work out more regularly. I will start with working out on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. So, more or less every other day. If that goes well (no setbacks or injuries), I will add some more workouts and an endurance and/or yoga training.

3/ Lose weight but most importantly get a strong healthy body. I will work on my short and long term goals. These are:

- short term goals (before the end of 2014):

• 1 pull-up without a band
• consecutive double unders 
• front squat and back squat with bodyweight 

- long term goals:

• consecutive pull-ups
• 1 toe to bar -> consecutive toes to bar
• row 500 m under 1:50
• be faster
