First of all let me tell you this, I'm sooooo not into fitness. It's just not something I'm passionate about. I'd rather read a book. Or fry my face. To me exercise is strongly related to pain, to people treating
My recent experience has been that exercise equals strength gain, better sleep and support, perhaps even admiration from my peers. Probably because I exercise alone. So strong is my fear of exercise that if I am working out and my husband comes in the room, I cannot continue. I stop then and there. I know it's silly, and I think it stings him a bit, but I just can't push forward with that at the moment. Just because it's not my passion now doesn't meant that it won't become something I enjoy doing if I make sure I feel good at the end of every workout.
I'm doing pretty well. I've been slow on the blog which has more to do with having one computer at home now instead of three with two children needing it for homework. But I am working out.
Convict Conditioning is going great guns. I've been doing the workouts twice per week and have noticed a big difference in my recovery. The first time I did a CC workout I was a mess for days. Now I do one and the next day my legs feel a little weak, and day two I'm fine again. Woo hoo!
I can see a difference in my body. In particular my lower legs and abdomen. I can feel the muscles are bigger in my upper arms. I like it!
Apart from the CC workouts, I've just been gently rebounding. Very little cardio. I'm feeling exhausted again, which leads to depression if I'm not careful and when I do a cardio workout I feel like crap afterwards. After either gentle rebounding, or CC workout, I feel good. Happy with myself and calm. I'm listening to that because in the past I haven't and the results have cost me thousands in therapy!
Anyhoo... it's Sunday. I'm going to make a big green juice, and kick back and watch about 6 Clint Eastwood movies if I don't nap!
Have a great day all. <3
