This has to be Pete's fault, I'm not lazy
Been a tough 5 days. The Sunday long paddle really upset my week and I felt I only really recovered on Wednesday evening. I tried to do a hard weights session on Monday and my body just said no. Did some cardio but I just didn’t let my body recover. I just sat out Wednesday morning after Tuesday was a bit of a waste too.
Went for a paddle on Wednesday evening, which felt great. But was about 40 minutes short of the session I should have paddled because I lost the group and thought they had gone back in. Thursday was a good weights session but this morning again it felt like someone had pulled the energy plug.
I have a session with a trainer on Tuesday and I’m hoping he can help me balance the weights, cardio and water sessions better so I can train at a consistent rate.
Tonight’s session should be fun as the weather is so much warmer. Lessons this week.
- Train to the schedule, when it says 1 hour on the water do an hour on the water. Working too long one day, means subsequent days get out of sync.
- I need my schedule to be rigid, changes upset my discipline.
- “I’m tired” is not a valid excuse to not go to the gym. It will not happen next week.
- Pete also gets grumpy when he’s physically tired (very pleased at this, as I thought it was only me)
- I have to sort out my food. Late nites mean I just don’t have time for an evening meal. I’m going to have to make up Pasta for Tuesday and Wednesday nite.
