Trying something new

In my effort to get motivated again and introduce some variety into my workouts (and most importantly, to burn that last bit of stubborn fat!), I've decided to try something new: more lifting and less running. That is, I'm going to try to lift weights 6 days this week, with short bursts of running every day. Ideally, I should run after lifting to burn more fat (see www.philkaplan.com), but today I wasn't sure what I wanted to do. After running for about 10 mins, my watch died and I decided to head back after my turnaround. I run this route every day, so I know I ran about 2.5 miles in about 25 minutes. Then I did my weights: 2 sets of 12-15 reps of 5 different shoulder exercises, with lunges and crunches in between. It felt great. Tomorrow, I'll do my weights first, maybe work on my back, and then do another short 20 minute run. We'll see what happens...
