I'm Pooped!

I'm making this short and sweet, Mostly because I am SO tired. Today was day 5 in a row of workouts. And not dinky workouts. Hard workouts. Going into bootcamp tonight was death. I was already feeling tired, sluggish and sore and was totally afraid of what was to come. And, did I ever get my ass kicked.

Had I taken a rest day yesterday maybe my performance would have been better tonight. Granted, the class was difficult but I didn't even have the mental capacity to keep myself pumped and motivated. So that combined with tired muscles made for a long class.

When I walked in the door tonight I went face down, on the floor, jacket and backpack still on.

Lesson: take your rest days! You're not doing your body any good by pushing it to the max 7 days a week. That rest time is just as important as the workout time to recharge your batteries and give your body a chance to repair it's self. Plus, if you've been working hard you deserve a little break!

Tonight, after a nice shower I'm off to bed early!

zzzz!
