Yup, I took another Rest Day today!
Why? Well because I can do what I want, that's why! But a better reason is that my body feels so worn out from last week. Seriously, my arms were still sore this morning, so were my legs. I just couldn't bring myself to start today. So I rested up! This morning Lees and I dug around trees outside this morning so they can be watered. Dang just shoveling dirt really wore me out. My arms and legs were tired when we were done around noon. I was so tired, I couldn't bring myself to do anything else. I just stayed in the rest of the day and took it easy.
Finished my gallon of water today! The rest of the day was pretty mellow. Didn't do much, just hung around here at home. This is a good note I'd have for everyone who's really starting to get super serious in fitness. If you're body feels weak, tired, or if you just feel worn out, take a day to rest. Sometimes you might need two days. Whatever you feel your body needs! Don't get it in your head that if you miss one day, you'll fall so far you won't be able to catch up, or worse, don't think that just by missing one day or two days, you'll end up putting on a crapload of weight. Not true! You'll only put on weight if you give up completely. Your body is what you need to go thru life. You have to take care of it. Yes, it's great to exercise and keep healthy, but sometimes when you do that and really push yourself, like I'm doing now, it will really take it's toll on your bod, so Rest. Let your body recharge and build back up to Super Mario mode. You gotta refresh just like everything else. That's what I learned today. Simple but great message! I'm sure I'll be good to go tomorrow. I sure needed today though. Right now my arms are still pretty sore. I can really feel them. I can't wait to sleep tonight. We shall see tomorrow ;}
