Before I began the pr

DIET
This is my average day of food intake this will be taken into consideration when planning my pep

Breakfast : Bacon sandwich with tomato sauce Glass of orange juice

Morning Snack : Small chocolate bar

Lunch : Peanut butter sandwich Bag of crisps Carton of orange juice Cookie Dinner: A cooked meal with usually meat, potatoes and vegetables

Evening Snack : Usually a bag of crisps or a chocolate bar and a glass of coke.

To help with my pep I am going to be adjusting my diet as I will be burning more calories.I will swap things out with healthier options

Breakfast -Bowl of cereal Orange juice

Morning Snack – Piece of Fruit

PLAN
Frequency - I will train twice a week Mondays and Thursdays,giving myself time to recover.
Intensity - By the end of the program I want to be working at about 65% of my maximum heart rate (220-age=205) which is 133 to begin I will start at 60% of my maximum heart rate which is 123 I will then gradually increase my intensity.

Time – My sessions will last for about 45 minutes if the activity’s are finished early they will be repeated.

Type – I will use endurance, circuit and fartlek training

I will also take into account:

Variance – I will vary my training sessions to avoid boredom,I will do this by using a variety of machines.Variance is important to maintain motivation.
Reversibility – I will be aware that when training is interrupted,the muscles will begin to return to their pre exercise state

Warm Up
Warming up is very important prior to exercise ,the increased heart rate will release more oxygen to the muscles.I will start the warm up shuttle runs of 25m each to increase the heart rate, followed by a series of dynamic stretches to stretch the muscles in use during the training session.
Cool Down
A cool down is also very important, it helps your heart rate and breathing return to resting rates,it also aids the removal of lactic acid to prevent muscles soreness.I will start by doing a slow paced jog which slowly changes into a walk followed by a series of static stretches.
Training Session 1
Warm Up­ - Shuttle Runs 2x25m Sprints 4x25m Jog 2x25m Sprints(Pulse Raiser)
