Lesson Learned

Lesson learned: Somtimes you just have to know when to stop, even if that means wasting $10.

You may be asking just how did I learn this lesson? Well a lot of bad decisions along the way really helped nail this home.

Well let me rewind about a month ago when I purchased another class package at the best gym in the world The Firm. When you purchase a package, you have so many days to use said classes.

Well between a very busy April, and training runs, I didn't use my classes at the same rate that I typically did this winter. Bad decision #1: Thinking I could get the classes done in the first place.

Which bring me to this week when I had to do 3 classes in about 4 days or risk leaving them on the table. Did I stick to the classes I am used to doing no. Of course not. Let's try Funk and let's try Core. Bad Decision #2: Trying new classes.

Oh yeah, and let's try them back to back with less than 9 hours passing. Bad decision #3: Taking Funk at 7:30PM Wednesday, and Core at 6:15 AM.

Oh, and don't forget your 6 mile run on Thursday night at 5PM.

And that brings me to last night, when the soreness started to settle in. And my soreness, I mean it feels like I have broken ribs. I can't turn my neck (because once the core muscles are shot, you do sit-ups with your neck you know). My back mucles feel like I I spent the last three days picking rock (or at least what I would imagine it would feel like to pick rock). I actually WOKE MYSELF up everytime I shifted last night because I am so sore.

Will I do Funk or Core again? Absolutely.

Will I do them back to back? Absolutely not.

I am just sitting on the couch working from home hoping my house doesn't catch fire, or nothing happens that requires sudden movement, because there is no sudden movement ability right now.
