Monday:

after spending about 3 hours up last night coughing and generally feeling awful I opted out of morning workout. Ok, I just couldnt get out of bed is more the story.

5:00 pm. 40 minute workout (empty stomach kinda... lunch was at 1 p.m.)
10 minute cool down


Next few days will be different, travelling and this particular hotel doesnt have a gym (they do have a pool though, so if the opportunity arises I will take advantage). Planning on continuing with the resistance training though, maybe a bit more strenuously.

Nat...You are amazing!!

Thanks for posting your exercise log for me (us) to read and be inspired.

It's great to know that you are out there taking care of the wee hour exercise times so that I don't need to feel guilty about not using them. I'm hard pressed to be out of bed at 7AM though I'm practicing in hopes of getting a full time job soon.

*LOL* Marlaine, i've always been a morning person; LC just seems to have given me that boost.. I think it's cause i'm sleeping right through the nite now.. I used to be up every few hours (very light sleeper). Heck, it's even changed my boyfriend, the grumpiest least morning person I've ever known.. I was sure he was a pod person after his first four days of LC

well two days of no workout.... i must admit I thought about it at around 5 pm tonight but decided agains it. I'm too dizzy. It's a good thing there's no gym at this hotel Or i'd be down there regardless of my health.. obsessive

I did jump out of bed at 6:30 this morning and do a few squats and pushup to get my heart going and wake up. A hot shower and some coffee did the trick finally.

Beback at it saturday... I think I needed this break; I'll appreciated the workouts more when I get back to them.
