Oh NO!! I got the flu!!!
Aagghhhh! I have the flu and my sinuses are shot. The weather has changed very quickly here and not to my benefit! We usually have lovely weather but a big cold front has come across and whipped up the winds -drying the air out and drying my sinuses too. Although I live in tropical Queensland (Australia - aka paradise!) the dry winter wind has begun. Its been lovely weather but the temp has dropped from 24 degrees (celcius) to 10 degrees (celcius) this morning and yesterday. Not good when you ride a motorbike to training early in the morning too…… it would be ok but I have bad sinuses and ended up with a big nose bleed yesterday and sinus headaches. The flu has been going around so now I feel like CR*P! Still training tho although at a lower intensity, just need to sweat it out and I refuse to drop a session unless I am dying in bed. My trainer had me do the beep test this morning before my back/bi’s session and i could only get up to level 9 so 2 levels of my usual performance. I just couldn’t breathe. So I am off sick today from work to help myself recover so I can take out Fit Camp this afternoon.
My forearms hurt so much in our lift session and they were hard as rock….not the pump I was looking for - Dean just laughed and couldn’t believe how pumped they were.
Anyway…..bring on the chicken soup, vitamin C, blanket, internet and television - I’m resting up for the day.
