My water and protein intake for yesterday were right where I wanted them, I got 3 sets of laps done at work and I did a harder workout on the treadmill. My strength training...well, remember how I said that I upped the weight I was doing? Well, when I went to duplicate that effort, my muscles failed to cooperate with the intention. I started at the higher weight and couldn't do it. I tried my regular workout weight. Couldn't do that either. I over worked those muscle groups and subsequently I will have to wait a couple of days to try again. That threw me off so badly that it didn't occur to me to work the other muscle groups, which I will do tonight.
Odd thing was, I had no pain or stiffness when I woke up yesterday and didn't feel any pain until I tried to do the exercises and my muscles just said, "We'll push this weight up when we damn well feel good and ready to and that's not right now, hero."
Ah well, that's what I get for not doing it slow and sure and increasing the weight a little at a time. Lesson learned.
Tschuss!
