This morning was the first time I've woken up and didn't feel like working out. I think it may have been because I had some extra sleep than I'm use to. I went to bed around 5:00am and woke up around 2:00pm. I've heard and experienced for myself how getting too much sleep can be a bad thing. It might make you feel a little more groggy or lethargic. I think it has a lot to do with your body needing calories to continue sleeping and I didn't eat anything before going to bed like I should have.
Well I powered through my workout and feel a lot better. Afterward I played some soccer with my son Asher and then took him to the playground. I'm trying to get him a little more active as well, because I don't want him to turn out like his father when I was younger.
Since greasing the back weight bar on the smith machine I've noticed less resistance on the release of my exercises, causing more of a workout for me. A good thing yes, but I wasn't expecting it so I think I'll be feeling the extra affects tomorrow. I've noticed as I was doing my rowing exercise that my legs have really thinned out, become smaller. So I think I may start to incorporate some lower body exercises on the off days. Just 3 more days until my next weigh in. I can't wait!
