So I only went to the gym once last month. That's frankly a bit embarrasing. Admittedly there were epic bike rides and gardening activities happening, but I just couldn't haul my ass out of bed to get there.
I just don't get it. When I'm there I enjoy it, but I just can't be bothered when the alarm goes off. I find myself making excuses - I slept badly, I was too busy, I had a dodgy tummy etc.
Needless to say, no matter how tired I am the gym always does me some good.
I went yesterday morning and did a pretty good work out. Although... I managed to fall off the treadmill in a totally laughable manner. Somoene in the ladies gym had reset the basic profile so that it started at running pace. I was expecting walking pace so went for a burton. The 2 ladies in the gym with me didn't even ask if I was ok.
So, once my dignity was restored I walked uphill for 15 minutes, then did a weights session. I certaninly did more weights than normal, but at the time it felt fine.
For a long time now I've been doing work outs and not being able to feel it the next day. I was beginning to miss that twingy feeling - it's like a badge of honour, and I was starting to fear that my workouts quite simply weren't 'working out' !
Anyways, the morning after I felt like I'd been hit by a truck. Literally. I don't think it was all gym related, but I spent the morning looking like I'd got a serious spinal issue and behaving like my brain had been replaced by gravy. Not good.
And for some reason, I'd managed to workout so hard on my left arm that rather than have that sort of yummy twinge going on, my arm simply didn't work! I found this out when trying to scratch my ear driving to work! My hand stopped around mid chest!
I wouldn't mind but I spent ages stretching out after my workout.
Anyways . I can't get motivated to go to the gym. I like being there. It makes me feel good all day.
What the funk is wrong?
