Weigh-in Wednesday
I tipped the scales at 191.4 lbs yesterday, but this morning I weighed 189.0 lbs. Guess its going to be hard to tell what my weight will be consistently for a while.
Thursday Thanks
I’m giving thanks for sleep last night. With a little help, I got to sleep and stayed to sleep for quite a while last night. Almost 7 hours! Throughout this whole process, sleep has proven to be invaluable. The strength of my workouts and my performance depends greatly on how well I sleep.
Yesterday I had to skip my Wednesday swim. I hadn’t slept well for 3 nights. My coach told me to listen to my body and adjust my plans accordingly. Well, last night my body was screaming for rest. Not just in the way of soreness or physical fatigue. Mental and emotional fatigue as well as a great need for sleep lead to my decision to skip my swim. I can work through the physical issues but when I’m with down mentally, emotionally and physically, its time to take a rest. I was reassured by my coach that I did the right thing and he adjusted the rest of my training plan accordingly.
