After my recovery week…s!
Since stopping for a recovery week after my 13 week Power to the People program, I’ve been utterly exhausted. Grossly tired, hardly any appetite and mentally fatigued. It’s taken all my effort to go to Kung Fu training. I really pushed it hard with the deadlift program and, while I made good gains, I think I may have pushed too hard, ran too much on adrenaline, and used up all my energy reserves, especially considering I was back at the weights the day after coming out of hospital…
As a result, I’ve needed two weeks to recover.
Oh well. I’ve got 6-7 weeks now until I’m off on a two week holiday, so I want to make the most of the time and still try and make my 13 stone / 182 Lbs target. I’m moving around at work again, so I definitely wont have time to go to the gym everyday and still get my martial arts training in as I had been doing.
I’m tempted to stick with home training for this next spell - back to Pavel’s Enter the Kettlebell, perhaps? If so, I’ll start the 3 day-a-week program tommorrow. I’d dearly love to have a keg / barrell to lift, Steve Justa style. Anyone got any clues on where to acquire / purchase one? Bear in mind, I live in tea-sippin’ blighty.
Bring me your energy - I need it!
