Plyometrics last night was really tough to get through at about the 1/2 way point. I'm afraid that I am not getting adequate rest.
Evening workouts were worrying me, but then I remembered that when I was working out with Micah, I worked out from 6-7, so this is just an hour later. And I eventually adjusted to it just fine. So that's a relief.
It was my 3rd time doing plyo, since I tried it the week before our official start day. Exhausting, but exciting to see some of our results.
I noticed that my quads tightened immediately, and I could feel my strength improved during lunges and some of the jumping. The jumping really exhausts your muscles, and I was drained yesterday. I am looking forward to doing weights again tonight.
It is difficult to describe how I can feel an overall body change already. I did not get on a scale, primarily because I am anti scale. I was ruled in my life once by portions, anorexia, even fought off being bulimic. I do not ever want my quest for strength, muscle tone and a beautiful strong body to become about a pound or two.
It does not mean I will never get on a scale, it just means for now I choose not too. Instead, I took photos, and know the current size I fit into after the baby. I will measure results by my muscle definition and how baggy my clothing becomes. For now at least....
I woke up a few times in the middle of the night sore and my mind was actively alert.
The only supplements that we are doing is Vitamineral Green in the morning, we may look into other options going forward.
