I’m giving up on my ladies team.
I tried to take on more than I can handle. I knew this back in July when I said I would try, but I made it very clear that I would not tolerate any extra anything. The extra something happened last weekend and after pondering if I could do it for the girls still or just had to keep my own sanity, my sanity won. My ear, nose, and thoat are sore or filled with ugly byproduct of drainage. My body knows what’s best for me so when the stress of the extra stuff related to my girls team hit, my body decided to put me in slowdown mode! To make things worse I ended up going up another 2 lbs due to issues with being able to control my food between practices and games last week.
Anyhow with one less hour of soccer two nights a week that will give me time to get my own cardio in or find that extra hour for sleep. I’m not being selfish, it’s just I love to teach the game, but when it comes to breaking bad habits I’m extrememly inflexible. I’ve seen too many kids and parents ruin good teams because they think they know what’s best.
OK enough with the venting. I need to rewrite my workouts so I get my heavy leg day in on Friday. I’ve been sprinting a lot more while playing on the field with my boy’s team. I’ve learned that without pushing the game they will never be ready for the next level. I also need to get back to planning meals. I’m off to the store to pick up boneless chicken breasts for dinner tomorrow. I’d rather grill those than the hot dogs.
