Didn't want to forget an update! Today was especially rough. I have been weening myself off of caffeine and that means no coffee for opening shifts. I usually buy a cup from Starbucks to reward myself for getting up in the morning for opening shifts so not only was I caffeine deprived but I was completely sore from the following day.
I knew I still had to do my workout after work (which has to be one of the hardest things if you don't wake up early and do it). All I could think about as I am driving home is, "nopenopenopenope nope. nope. NOPE nope. don't want to do it. Nope. I'm tired. Nope." At one point I got home and plopped on my bed (like I normally do after I get home from opening shifts) and said, "I don't wanna. I want a nap. This bed is comfortable. Nope. NO." At one point Daniel came by to lay next to me...taunting me. (We usually nap together) But he knew I wanted to do my work out even if I didn't want to at all. So...he started poking me and shaking me, "GIT UP". So I flopped out of bed and stomped down stairs to do my Insanity. And what do you know, it was my lucky day: CARDIO RECOVERY! The timing was perfect. It was enough exercise to keep my movin but it didn't burn me out and make me hate my life.
As a side note during Cardio Recovery when we'd be doing serious quad work I would put my hand on my thigh and FEEL heat radiating off of it. It was crazy!
That's the thing about Insanity...even if you really, REALLY don't want to do it. You just have to.
