Hmmm...found it hard to get out of bed this morning. Still recovering from the weekend's festivities and lack of sleep. Sunday was very humid which made sleeping last night very tricky. Hot and then cold. Perhaps that's another reason I'm feeling so tired today.
I don't know if my metabolism is starting to get the hang of things or if today was just an unusual day. I actually managed to eat: breakfast, snack, lunch, snack and dinner! Amazing!! You would think that an over-weight person eats large portions at regular intervals. That might be true of some, but not me. I'm finding it very challenging to eat every 3-4 hrs.
Since we didn't get around to it on Friday, V suggested that we do the overhead squat assessment tonight. I think if I had known what it meant, I might have been a bit more prepared-and a bit more anxious. Essentially it involves raising my hands above my heads and doing squats until my muscles fatigue. Not my idea of a good time! Picture this: me in a long-sleeved button up work shirt, work pants rolled up above my knees, tacky socks and more humidity than a prairie girl can handle. Not ideal!
On the plus side, an overhead squat assessment is extremely good at pointing out where things are going wrong. It will give V & J a much better idea of how to tailor the workout to suit my individual needs.
Tonight, G and I did the bicep circuit, followed by a new series of stretches that V organised for me. OMG. I'm sure they will become faster and easier as I get more practised at them, but man, they sure took a long time tonight! Now I need to find an extra 40 mins in the morning in order to tack the stretches onto the end of my circuit routine. I think sleep is going to have to take a backseat for a while...sigh.
Well, on that note, I should prolly drag these tired bones to bed.
