Goals

It's been around two-weeks now and,yes, I've noticed minimal changes. Based on these observations I have set the following SMART goals to be achieved by the end of August:

Endurance & speed
  • Bent knee sit-ups 40 in one minute
  • Push-ups 30 in one minute
  • Running 1.5 miles in 12:30
  • Swimming 500 meters (20 laps)
  • 100m in under 12min and tread water for 5-minutes

Physical

  • Loose 3 Kg of weight
  • Loose 3% body fat
  • Loose 3 cm off my waist
  • Increase arms, chest and thighs by 2 cm

Note the first set of goals are the minimal fitness requirements needed to graduate from the US Coast Guard's Cape May boot camp.
