I never thought I would say this...
But it was nice being able to workout again today. I seriously missed it, even the muscle fatigue and massive amount of sweat. It honestly felt like an accomplishment to me. I could have easily said that I needed another week off because of my back and that there was still some soreness but I knew I was ready. Instead of making it an excuse, I made it the reason to keep pushing through...to prove to myself that I could do it.
I decided to pick up where I left off and do the Max Interval Circuit tonight. There were a couple of workouts that I modified or completed at a slower rate...side suicide jumps, most definitely slower at those than before. To get back on track with my workouts (since I'm a day behind), I plan to double up on Wednesday and Thursday. Luckily, I have Wednesday off (HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!) I also need to get back on track with my nutrition. Having a week of no workouts was great but I definitely attribute no need to follow nutrition all the time to no workouts. Hopefully this week goes more smoothly.
Wish me luck! And to everyone that's doing Insanity or just working out, keep pushing yourself and digging deep. You can do it!
Yayyy! Your back!! Congrats on getting back into it so quickly! We both had out speed bumps! Where are you within month 2 now? (Today - Monday the 9th, I'm on Week 3 Day 3). Its getting easier, but with work, grad school, life, travel ect, its crazy! Only a week & half left... now i need to figure out whats next!
ReplyDeleteThanks!!! I am seriously behind right now. I'm on Week 2, Day 5. Last week was a tough week with work and then my boyfriend came to visit over the weekend. I'm hoping to get back on track this week. *crosses fingers!*
