So last night was fun. It was a little more challenging than the past few days. 15 burpees, 25 squats and 35 situps, 4 rounds. Again, I am always amazed at how beat I am after its done. This is the second time we have had to do these exercises. Day 1 it was only for 3 rounds. In the short amount of time that I have been doing this, it was only Day 7, I can see the difference. I can see the difference, I can feel the difference. I feel great. I really do, soreness aside of course. I can't believe a few short days can have such an impact. I was so out of shape, still am, but am a lot better than I've been in a while.
So today is another rest day. I am thinking about running on off days. I was also thinking of trying to get up and run in the mornings before work. I'm up early, or can be, anyway. its something I'd like to do, we'll see.
Moving forward.
Don't run on rest days! Remember to give your muscles a chance to recover (it takes even longer once you get old like me). Try active rest like a quality walk with Carla and the boys (you can hold hands even!) I have faith in you - you can do this!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jim!! Resting on the off days is probably best. We'll see how it goes. I'm surprised I haven't pulled anything yet... Hopefully I'll stay healthy in that regard.
