Week 7

I forced myself to the gym this morning. For some reason the desire not to go and tiredness far out weighted my feelings last night. But I went. Why when I am exhausted, the elliptical machine is so much easier? I did a much higher pace than usual, and it felt as though i might have been able to get a 20min out of my body. Strange, but good :)

Discovery: Sometime at the gym, my calves felt a little harder. I figured it was because I was stretching and using them at the same time. When I was getting fuel after the workout, I reached down and ran my hands down my calves. They are as rock hard as they used to be when I used to do 250lbs. on leg presses back a few years!! This is so exciting and encouraging! When I was doing weights back in the day (maybe 3-4 years ago), it took me MONTHS to get my calves rock hard and solid. It has only taken going to the gym and switching things up with a PT to get this loveliness! **happy white girl dance**

Well, off to a nice, relaxing hot bath and then a short nap before I pick the hubby up for lunch. And, man, my stomach its growling. I think I'll grab some cheese on the way to the bathtub :)
