PUSH!

Lesson of the day: push through the tough stuff, you'll feel better after.

I worked out today for the first time in a couple of minutes. The first 10 minutes were easy and then they each minute after got harder and harder. I planned on working out for 45 minutes so I was going to. At about the 17th minute I thought to myself that 25 minutes would be good enough. So, at about the 24th minute I decided to go for 30 minutes and 30 minutes magically turned into 45 minutes. I felt pretty good about it. I know that once I get used to my regular workout routine that it will get easier and then I will have to challenge myself again and again.

Last week I decided that since I have so much extra time in my hand that I would work out everyday after class - that is if I am not working or don't have prior plans. I am starting with cardio this week and will add in some strength and core training next week.

Working out was really a pick-me-up today. I knew I would be lazy once I got home so know that I had already worked out made me feel like less of a bum.
