Hi everyone,
I am back and exercising again after a 5 day layoff. I hit the wall last Thursday night-I was really too exhausted to lift anything or walk anywhere. I really did try, and I was very discouraged, but decided my body was looking for a rest. So I didn't do my regular routine at all, although I parked further away in lots and used stairs to keep a bit active, as the weather is improving here in Massachusetts.
Anyway, today is the day to start in again after my rest, so I did 50 minutes on the treadmill at an incline of 3, alternating walking at 3.5 and jogging at 4.5-5. I also have divided up my weight training so it doesn't use up as much time each session, and I started that up again too.
It was tiring, but I really was glad to do it. Not exercising these past few days had had a negative impact on my sleep, surprisingly. So I am sure I'll sleep well tonight.
Kathy
