You may recall a while back I had an abortive attempt at counting calories for weight loss and all that. Then Christmas happened, so it all felt a bit pointless. But now it's the new year, which is the obligatory time to at least try and make things vaguely better for yourself, so from tomorrow I'm going to be trying the whole calorie-counting thing again. I'm also going to try and get some more regular exercise in because my back and knees are absolutely killing me and I suspect it's mostly from lack of activity during lockdown.
I'm going to start off exercising with Fitness Boxing I think, rather than Ring Fit Adventure. Ring Fit is good — and a genuinely fun game to boot — but I think the full-body thing is a bit much for me to jump right into with the state I'm in right now. Fitness Boxing, meanwhile, starts a bit more gently and also requires a lot less space, so in the early days of developing good habits that will help with motivation.
If anyone reading this has picked up Fitness Boxing 2 and knows if it has any worthwhile additions over the original, do please let me know; Misty already let me know that it's mostly an incremental upgrade that adds a very welcome ability to remove specific exercises from routines if you so desire, but if anyone has any detailed thoughts and experiences to share I'd love to hear them.
It's off to bed with me now. New podcast episode tomorrow — please look forward to it!
