Well, I would be lying if I said I wasn't worried about what today's workout was going to be like. In the first month, Pure Cardio always kicked my butt and there were no water breaks so I was worried this would be like that, only worse. It wasn't actually too bad, though. It was too tough for me to keep up with everything (just like every other workout I have done up until now) but there is a bit of a recovery period in the middle of it. The recovery period is a few exercises that help bring the heart rate down just enough so you can survive the 2nd half of the workout. I felt pretty good today, though! I even shoveled our driveway before working out. I will just assume that if I hadn't already used all my energy shoveling I would have been able to keep up with the whole workout today. :o)
After working out and feeling pretty good today, I am encouraged. I am a bit sore from the past couple of days, but I love to feel sore every once in awhile so I know I am really working hard. When I stop feeling sore, I worry that I am hitting a plateau and will stop seeing results. I love seeing results. So, the combination of feeling sore and being able to survive today's workout make me feel like I am ready to take on the rest of this month and hopefully see some awesome results!
Day 39....bring on the recovery day.
