Today was rough. I did not want to get out of bed. I put in my DVD
and realized not only did I still have my glasses on, but I looked down
at my bare feet and sighed. I walked to the kitchen with a walk similar
to Frankenstein's monster, and I ate an apple. I put in the contacts,
put on my shoes, filled up the water bottle, and finally I was ready.
After
the warm up, I felt wide awake. I struggled through the work out, and
had to pause for a minute after my son woke up briefly. I went right
back to the workout. I didn't realize how much I struggle with crunches.
I am definitely the person who pulls on my neck with all my strength
until I hear "Don't pull on your neck". I know I have a short torso, but
that only hinders me with touching my toes, and you would think it
would help with crunches? As much as I struggled, I didn't even realize I
was down to the last excercise because I was so focused on how weak I
felt today. When I realized it was the last excercise, I realized it
wasn't so bad, AND I got my workout in for the day, so I didn't have to
struggle later or make excuses for not working out like I usually do.
I
think the best advice I have seen lately was, "Workout in the morning.
Get it out of the way!". Plus, you might be so tired you won't even
realizing how much work you're doing. Unless you aren't doing things to
your full potential, then yes, that could be bad.
Honestly, still - telling myself, "One minute at a time!" has been my savior. I hope everyone is having a great morning!
