Day 57: Chest & Back; Ab Ripper X
4Today was THE worst workout I’ve had thus far. My body felt so tired and weak. It might be because I did it earlier in the morning than I normally would. I’m not sure. I also think I was a little more dehydrated than usual as well which I think might have been a factor. Mentally I was all psyched and ready to get going today but my body apparently wasn’t. I thought I would have been able to do a lot more pushups and pullups but in some cases I did the same or less. I also had to take a few more breaks than usual. I’m hoping that maybe it is just a transition from recovery week and that tomorrow will be better.
On a positive note, I CRUSHED the ab workout! I waited about an hour and a half after doing Chest & Back and drank a lot of water. I felt much more full of energy and had the best ab workout yet. I’m thinking that I just needed to wake up and get some water and fuel in me to get going.
Day 56: X Stretch; Training Block 3 Here I Come!
3The final recovery phase is now done after this morning’s stretch routine. Tomorrow I start the third and final training block for the remaining 34 days. I’d like to think I’m at the home stretch but 34 days is a long time and there are no recovery weeks left. I’m proud that I haven’t missed a day since I started (knock on wood). Hopefully I will be able to keep that up for the next 5 weeks. Later in the week I’ll take my 60 day photos, probably next Saturday when I have time. Chest, back and abs tomorrow. BRING IT!
