My body is uncooperative today....

Just as I was sitting down to write this blog, my sister called me and asked..."are you working out"? Seems every time she calls, I am working out and ask her if I could call back later. No, I said, I didn't mention I was thinking of writing about fitness. :-) God bless her. She thinks I am a fanatic.

This past weekend we had a mini holiday (my little family) which means I did indulge in tasty treats which I normally wouldn't. I also missed a workout  but I don't feel to bad about it, it just means that I have no other rest days this coming week.

There are those days that your body just doesn't cooperate with your workout. Today was one of those days. I was doing Insanity's max cardio circuit and I felt like my heart would pop out of my chest. I had to stop the workout a couple of times to catch my breath. I don't believe this is a sign of getting weaker. Even though it was a resting weekend, it is tiring for me, packing, unpacking, running after the little one when she decides to scoot off or taking care of her in the swimming pool.....She knows Mummy will always be there and I don't think caution will be any part of her vocabulary soon.

I took my protein shake and decided to do the insane abs workout in the evening. After all, I was lying to myself I was doing anything. Lifting my feet off the floor for those scissors was killing. But I want terrific abs, so it's just postponed a few hours, then I will work these abs off.

This is one of those days I appreciate rest. I was to wake up at 5 am to do my workout but chose not to. I would have done zero judging by my performance later. Sometimes, our bodies just need a little down time.

Have an active day!
