Right now is not a good time. Unfortunately, there is a confluence of events that is making me feel unbelievably crappy today.
First- I have a cold (and have had the cold for a couple of days.) It is giving me a cough and a stuffy nose. The cold is also making it somewhat difficult for me to sleep.
Second- two days removed from my first real crossfit workout, I am incredibly sore. Mostly I'm sore in my legs for the airsquats they had me do. That said, sore in the legs is enough to make it painful when you sit down or get up. It also makes me walk in a completely ridiculous and duck like manner.
Third- On day three of my diet, my body is starting to turn against me for not feeding it bread and pizza. The lack of easily broken down carbohydrates if making me lack energy and giving me a headache. Boy is this rough.
Still, I know that soon I will have a break through and start feeling great. I'm using all of the intense desires that I have to eat breads and candy as things to put on my wishlist for my cheat day on Saturday. For now, I will remain virtuous. On Saturday, however, I will celebrate gluttony to such an extent that God will reign down upon me like Sodom and Gomorrah. Fortunately, by this point my powers will be many and I will defeat this divine judgment.
Yes, I'm getting a little loopy.
Hang in there, Double Nickels. In a day or two you're going to feel great. You're going through withdrawal now. Remember this feeling in case, down the road, you feel like you need to carbo load again.
ReplyDeleteIf you don't have a foam roller, get one... it really help with the soreness, especially in the legs. Don't let the soreness keep you away from workouts (unless there is pain). Once you get warmed up, it goes away and you can usually get through a WOD unemcumbered.
