Today was good, I got to sleep in this morning a little and catch up on some much needed sleep and I got a good workout in on top of that. I set the alarm for 9am but was up shortly before that. Janessa and Jamison had bowling league at 10am. I dropped them off then I made my way to the gym.
Boy I was exhausted before I ever started today. My body was feeling the effects of working out three previous days in a row. I almost decided to skip the workout and watch the kids bowl but I knew if I started that it would become a habit. I stuck to my guns and di the workout. I did decide because of that muscle in my calf being irritated that I would take it easier than usual; and stay away from the elliptical for today. Here is what I did:
Treadmill - 30 minutes
Ergo-meter - 20 minutes
Recumbent Cross-trainer - 40 minutes
Recumbent Bike - 15 minutes
I'm glad I chose to go to the gym. Although I've been tired all day I feel good. I really hope to see some change on the scales... if I don't I think I can safely chalk it up to muscle gain instead of weight loss. I feel like I am finally starting to get back into my routine and I hope I can just stick to it. It's a daily battle still but I'm sure it will get easier again. I want this to work, I want to be healthier, I want to look and feel better about myself. Well it's getting late and I have had a long day... have a great evening!
