Dude, I didn’t post yesterday! 😮
My gym trainee forgot her workout clothes yesterday, so we didn’t go to the gym. She had some small purchases to make at WalMart about a mile away from work, so I suggested we walk there for exercise instead. To make up for the lack of weight-lifting, however, I did hit the gym with Mr. W, his son and nephew after work. After trudging through a 3-set circuit of decline dumbbell flies, dumbbell lunges and one-legged bent-over dumbbell rows, I got so nauseated that I didn’t even finish the last set of Romanian barbell deadlifts that I was doing and went downstairs to sit on the stationary bike instead. I pedaled pathetically slow and wondered if everyone on the elliptical trainers behind me were judging my back. I think it never turns out well if I take a nap before hitting the gym. The body’s just not turned on or something. I woke up this morning a sharp pain on my back vertebrae if I turn or tilt my head to the left. It was not easy driving to work this morning. *sigh*
The good thing is, long weekend coming up ahead to recuperate! Whoohoo!! I’m just picturing myself laying face-down on the floor for about 2 days. I can’t wait!
seems like you are too exhausted with your routine. get yourself a break.
I’ve recently changed up the routine and stepped up the gym intensity, but I did take yesterday off and had lunch instead. I feel lazy, but my body seems 100% now. I think you’re right, I should do breaks more often. Maybe once every other week or something. 🙂
