Today is the first night in a month that I feel like I am starting to wear down. I have been pushing myself a lot these last few months. Trying to make up for the lack of work and the ever impending March 5th date that looms in the distance. I have put a lot of work in on myself that I am starting to feel my body ache and my heart beat just a little quicker than normal. It's nothing to worry about and in truth I will probably not slow down at all. There is that inkling in the back of my mind that has harbored a bit of doubt.
First of all I work out at least two times a day. For five days a week I am at the gym in the morning at 5:30 pushing myself to lift more and more. That wouldn't be an issue if it wasn't so damned early in the day. Then on Tuesdays and Thursdays I go to an hour long workout with all of the recruits in the cold since we haven't been able to find a gymnasium to work out in. On the days that I don't have that I run 3+ miles depending how I feel on the day. Lastly before bed I workout my core every not trying my best to get my crunch numbers up.
All of this is start to wear my down but I can see and feel the results. When I used to not be able to do a pull up at all I can now lug my 205 pound frame up twice. I was able to run a 10:58 on my mile and a half run. Finally, I can see muscle starting to form very well. This might be wearing me down but I can see and feel the results. I just hope that this feeling goes away soon and eventually this all becomes habit.
Just some music for all of you to enjoy while you read this. The Head and the Heart are an amazing band.
