Day 3: Still Sore

Deep down inside I was hoping that I wouldn't be sore, but I was just lying to myself.  I knew I was going to be sore.  From a physical standpoint, day 3 and day 2 felt identical.  Except day three came with drowsiness.  All I wanted to do was take a little nap.  My intention is always to take a 10-15 minute cat nap, but they usually turn into 4 hours sleep sessions.  So I decided I would not nap because of that.

The theme of today was discipline.  It would have been very easy to use the soreness as an excuse not to get my second cardio session in this week, but I have committed myself to becoming a better version of myself...so the only option was to get 30 minutes of cardio in.  Most people know, I am not a fan of going past 20 minutes in any workout.  But I have learned that cardio helps me clear my mind and release any anxieties or worries that I have.  Sometimes you just have to do what feels good...and to be honest when I sweat for long periods of time...I feel awesome!
