frustration
I thought I was going to receive my P90X package yesterday. I was trackng it with the UPS tracking system and it stated that it was arriving today. I own a business and I order supplies all the time, so I know when my UPS driver is going to show up. He shows up during the time I usually lift. So, I didn’t lift yesterday because I was going to use that time to get introduced to the program. Well damnit, the package never came. They dropped it off at the post office to be delivered the next day. Hey, go Brown! I ended up missing out on my workout because I only so much time to exercise and I wasted it waiting for the package. I was upset. I’ve been exercising for 3 weeks now and it has become a important need for me. I can’t miss a day of exercising. I don’t like the way I feel when I haven’t worked out. Plus, since I have been working out I actually sleep more than 5 hours a night. The next morning I actually feel great. Last night, I only got 4 hours of sleep and none of it wa in a row. I don’t feel so great this morning. The reason I’m writing this blog is because I want to know if people feel the same way I do when they miss a work out? Is it healthy for me to think that working out is a vital success to my well being? I just wonder if I should have a better mental approach to this? Not be so negative if I miss a work out?Thanks for your time and stay strong.

Oh yeah I feel like a fat loser if I don’t work out. But, I have to tell myself that if something prevents me from working out then I just need to get over it and be okay with it. You are not always going to be able to get a good work out in everyday and thats ok…You aren’t going to lose motivation or muscle in just one day lol. Plus, its actually good if you are doing heavy weight training. The longer you give your muscles to relax and build the torn muscle the stronger you will be next time. I once went a week without training (I felt terrible but I went camping and other then swimming and hiking there was nothing to do) And when I went back my maxium weight I could life went up 15 pounds! Anyway, I hope this helps =)
