The biggest effect of only training 2 days this week is I've been one cranky mummy! I don't just exercise because I'm wanting to lose my baby weight, I exercise because it gives me more energy and makes me feel soooo much better. And once again by having a slack training week I've proved that to myself. I woke up yesterday morning in a bad mood for the second day in a row so within the first 2 hours of being awake I had already done my meal plan and training schedule for this week. I came across a great quote on a facebook page this week (and I can't for the life of me remember which page but I'll try to find it and share):
This quote just reminded me of why I get up early, even when I've had the worst night sleep, and why I put my LJ gear and joggers on, even when I feel like I have no energy. The feeling after a great workout is one I wish I could bottle up and sell because I know I would be a guaranteed millionaire :)
So I've scheduled lots of early morning workouts this week, which is going to be a struggle because I haven't been training early mornings in the last couple of weeks. But I have 2 motivations for getting up - the first is I know it makes me feel so much better all day after I train early, and the second is I am preparing to go back to work for a few hours a week very soon and they will be early shifts so I may as well start getting used to it now :) I'm sure my clients and class participants don't want a tired, grumpy trainer/instructor yelling at them lol. My other goal this week is to drink more water. With the weather turning cooler this week I know I've hardly been drinking any water and my skin is showing the effects.
I'll leave you with my training schedule for the week. I would love to know what you have planned, let me know :)
