No Shame

As Ms. Jillian likes to say there is no shame in doing what you need to in order to complete the exercise. Modifications can literally become your best friend. They have become mine - a means of survival and helping my body understand what it needs to do in order to survive my lovely trial. Last night I slept on a chair, so I didn't give my body the best chance to rest properly, but it definitely surprised me today ... no rubber, no massive shakes ... survival.

Well, as day 4 comes to a close I find my body feeling a little better about all of this. I think it is starting to realize that this wasn't just a day or two phase, but is going to keep on going; so, it might as well jump and the bandwagon and stop fighting me every step of the way.

My aches from yesterday have not subsided, but at least I think they are good aches. My quads are still screaming, but I am starting to put them on mute and I think they are starting to understand. How weird is it that I talk about my body parts like they are sentient beings?

Anyway, I feel better after today - and even after my walk. I think I am starting to, well at least I hope that I am starting to get the hang of this.

I have noticed one thing, my endurance level is beginning to increase, and that is a definite positive.
