As I mentioned on the other blog, I got a 80 minute massage on Saturday. It left me quite achy that night from all the hard work the masseuse put in on my back. So I woke up on Sunday feeling pretty stiff, but I wanted to work out nonetheless.
Luckily (haha, a funny thing in hindsight), I saw our downstairs neighbor leave for church, so I knew I had a window of time to do a workout video. I've only done the videos a few times since I moved to Alabama because it's just too loud for the folks downstairs so I have to wait until I know they're gone.
For some twisted reason, I decided to do Level 2 of the 6 week 6 pack cold turkey. In retrospect, I don't know why I thought I could handle it. I haven't done any upper body training in months, no planks, no squats, no lunges, NOTHING. Just because I've lost 19 lbs can kinda run 2 miles does not make me ready for some JM pain.
18 minutes in, I gave up, took the 3 activity points, and went on my merry way. The one perk was that my body got some needed relief from the stiffness because the workout stretched everything out.
But of course, this morning, I couldn't put weight on my left leg - it was so tight. I guess I got what I deserved.
