August Challenge: Week 1 - Final thoughts.

I think that as I enter week two of my August challenge I need to keep a couple of things in mind. One, it is great to be enthused about working out, however I should not burn myself out. Two, while I want to act like things are all good the reality is that it seems I am in a down cycle as far as feeling good. I am dealing with more pain than I was at the beginning of the summer and if I want to be active I need to be realistic.
Yesterday was a push – a real and true push. I was hurting so bad by the time I got home. I have deep aches today and I need to be more aware. I also need to take the anything is better than nothing – just move approach. Finally, I have to make working out on Saturday and/or Sunday a priority. There is just too much during the week and I can’t go back to back to back. I burn out.
This evening – fish, baked asparagus and a shower. Curled up on the couch with Kenni (Kenneth Cole – handbags & shoes), Molly Grue, Prince Lir and Darrius Jane watching Project Runway & Jersey Shore with a little bit of channel surfing.
Tonight – rest. Lots of it. Sleep at ten with GoB.

See more progress on: Exercise three times a week for one month. (August 2010)
