Another week of solid workouts in the books.
I am careful to train intensely, but since I'm hitting each muscle group 2 times a week, I push things without taking it too far and risking injury or overtraining. It has been a challenge, but so far I've been able to manage it quite well.
There have been times where I've felt sleepy or low energy, or had my schedule thrown off by something, or had some sort of a minor ache or pain; each time, the events in question seemed like valid reason enough to blow off a workout. But each time I ignored the negative thoughts and went harder in my workout than I thought myself capable of being able to do just a few minutes prior.
That is something that has become a great source of inspiration and strength.
Today has been possibly the most physically taxing day in weeks, as I did several hours of yardwork in the full sun, on possibly the hottest day of the year so far.
So much for rest. But that calorie burn tho!
