I fell all the way off in the beginning of September as I took two months off from the gym due to a mixture of bicycle related knee pains, having to stay later than I wanted to at work, and over all laziness. At this point, I just want to achieve a measure of consistency where I don't get discouraged and just keep on plugging away.

My overall loss in cardio strength is very humbling as I am struggling to get to the speeds I was able to hit (no pun intended) while doing my HITT sprints of the treadmill. I just have to listen to my body and make my progress in that manner.
