So we just got back from the gym and I still have not managed to complete that beginners bloody workout, like why can't my legs just act normally and not want to run away and hide in a corner, jeez should it even be this tough?
The one change I made tonight was that I stupidly increased the incline to 5% and also the speed, to something I could manage for a few minutes, this instantly killed my legs and when I stepped off the Treadmill I literally thought I was going to faint, there's a fine line between being determined and doing too much, I'd love to be in a position where I can run for 5 minutes straight without getting out of breath, but that seems like a long way away, it will get better though.
I then moved back onto the bike, took a leisurely ride to the land of Gym (how exciting right), and then sat down for about 10 minutes before moving onto the Cross Trainer, hey I managed an extra minute this time, and even went back on the treadmill for a couple of minutes, I mean they had virtually no resistance, but it made my heart rate go to the maximum, made me sweat several hundred gallons and naturally made my legs as always feel like they're about to fall off.
I didn't feel too great this time, in all honesty, I felt really weak, I'm not sure if it's because we went a few hours after food, or I pushed myself a bit harder, or a combination of everything but it didn't feel great, I felt like shakey, weird considering I kept myself hydrated throughout because I know how important that is. Gonna have a Tuna Salad sandwich to perk me up.
I ache from head to toe, might have to have a rest day tomorrow, but will, of course, keep you all updated.
Flabs Away!
