5 things to think about on your journey to retirement

retire-richSometimes how you envision your retirement differs from how it actually plays out, and there may be periods of uncertainty. Another way to approach the discrepancy between your retirement dream and the reality is to adjust your expectations. If you have an appropriate long-term asset allocation plan that’s readjusted periodically and you live within your means, you can redefine your “ideal retirement” as you go.

My comments: Lots of food for thought here…

Narrative: (Duration – 66:40 mins) →  My Run Log
Getting back to business after a day off.  Pretty tough workout especially after round 3.  Had good sleep last night so that was helpful.  Specifics: Did Burn Baby Burn HIIT movements (essentially burpees) as indicated below and then  moved on to 30 mins on the elliptical.   I workout at level I for this series doing 5 rounds.  No particular muscle aches right now, body is starting to calm down some – hoorah!.  Music was on point as usual; today I rocked my Workout Madness 3 (HipHop MegaMix) – scroll down and take a look at its composition.  That’s it for today 25 more to go.  Good livin’…lean forward and keep on movin‘.

Narrative: (Duration – 56:19 mins) →  My Nike Link
Relatively good day.  Had to workout later than I planned due having to get a few tasks done and a late evening headache due to poor sleep last night.  I will definitely have to work a bit harder in the sleep department.  Generally an easier workout  today though; that’s cool, plus tomorrow is a down day – YaY!!!.  Specifics: Did Total Burn HIIT movements as indicated below and then  moved on to 30 mins on the elliptical.   I workout at level II for this series doing 15 rounds (10 before run and 5 afterwards).  Calves are calming down now, not as bad as a couple days ago.  Now it seems that the Glutes are kicking in, but then again – tomorrow they will get some rest.  Music was on point for this workout – I pulled out the RockMyRun – Super Twerk – scroll down and take a look at its composition.  It truly is one of my favorites; get the job done every time.     That’s it for today 26 more to go.  Good livin’…lean forward and keep on movin‘.

Narrative: (Duration – 67:00 mins) →  My Nike Link
I am not exactly on easy street but I am certainly warming up to this whole experience.  Specifics: Did 1×1 Workout HIIT movements as indicated below and then  moved on to 30 mins on the elliptical.  No iPOD issues today; much better prepared.   I ended up doing 3 rounds, but could have probably push out a couple more.  Calves were screaming after yesterday’s workout so I pulled back a bit, as the toe-tap hops and high knees were smashing them hard.  I hit the calves with some electro-stimulation later in the evening. For this workout I primarily listened to Workout Madness 7 (HipHop) .  I also switched to Jason Derulo for the Cardio, but I will share a bit more about that in subsequent posts.  That’s it for today 27 more to go.  Good livin’…lean forward and keep on movin‘.
