Hubby volunteered to take the kitten to the vet all by himself so I could make it to my 'Body Works' class, AND he packed a gym bag for me so I didn't have to run home and grab stuff.
I am loved :-)
So, I made it to class. And as the name implies, Body Works is a total body workout. I knew I needed some upper body work; that's the number one thing that gets ignored during my bike and run training. But Oh My Goodness! My butt hurts! Glutes, and also lower back and lower abdominals.
And the things I could really feel my body struggling/getting the most work from, were movements that I recognized from exercises my physical therapist was giving me last time I landed in her office. So it's the same problems threatening to come back if I don't keep working on. You'd think a girl would learn to listen to her doctors a little more often! But, at least I noticed before it became a problem again, and I still have my exercise cards from the physical therapist so I can get fix the problem on my own this time.
Thursdays are my day off, but I still plan to do a little yoga before bed - since I didn't have time to do it this morning before work. Mornings are getting easier, but I still wouldn't call myself a "Morning Person." There's some early morning short runs in my training schedule about two weeks from now. I anticipate the first half dozen of those workouts are going to STINK.
