This morning I got up extra early to jog and ride the stationary bike. I wasn’t sure how I’d feel the rest of the day. I had plenty of energy and my fear of hitting a “wall” later in the day was unwarranted.
In fact, when I got home at 5pm I felt good enough to go to the gym like I normally do for a strength training session. I put in 1 hour this evening at the gym. I worked my legs, back and biceps.
For my legs I performed leg presses and hack squats followed by leg curls and calf raises. For my back I did two types of pull downs, and for my biceps I did dumbbell alternating curls and preacher curls. It was a good workout.
Now it’s 10pm and I need to get to sleep. I’ve got to be up at 4:15am. I will not be doing 2 workouts tomorrow, however, so I should get some quality recovery time in on Wednesday.
Tomorrow I’m going do some more strength training. I’ll be working on my chest, shoulders and triceps. I may do some cardio cross-training on the stationary bike as well. I plan to have a hard workout tomorrow - like every other day.
On Thursday I have the Race Judicata 5K charity race after work in downtown Chicago. The race starts at 6:30pm. I should be very well rested by the time the race starts since my last run will have been about 36 hours earlier (this morning).
