I couldn’t do my workout yesterday do to my knee hurting.  It had been bugging me for about three days but I could walk fine on it and whatever. But then on Friday when I got out of bed I could hardly walk. When I would sit in my vehicle in between jobs then get back out it hurt real bad again to walk. No matter what I did, I couldn’t bend my knee. It was really annoying. The worst thing is that it was leg day (how convenient). Not only that, at one of my jobs I turned around and accidentally kicked the corner of a wall with my other leg and stubbed the last two toes so that made it hard to walk on that foot for a while. Friday was just not my day this week. But it’s feeling better today, still hurts a little so I’m not going to force it. Don’t want to make it worse than it already is.

Okay, i worked out yesterday and did chest, bi’s and abs. Not too bad of a combo to do. The bad feeling was the ridiculous amount of weight i had to use since I’m just getting back to working out after a year.  It made me feel so horrible.  I had to start at the very bottom again.  The weight for my chest was the worst, granted I was doing sets of 20 but still.  I only did 65-75 lbs. for incline bb bench.  My incline was never much but this chest workout was just pathetic.  My biceps workout was a little better ’cause I use my arms a lot more than my chest on a daily basis.  I’m just hoping after a couple more crappy chest workouts I’ll be able to start using heavier weight.

i’ve only exercised for two straight days now, the last time was last week sometime, and i seem to be more energetic now.  i’m pretty happy about it.  my wife too. have had some extra energy she likes. because of not working out for quite a while i was  always tired and didn’t want to do anything. now i can keep up better with my dog (somewhat) when playing outside.  i don’t get winded now after just 2 minutes of running around. now it’s 3. no just kidding. but i can run around with playing with him for about 5 minutes or so before i get really winded and i’m loving it.
