T - 40 smarter not harder

after two days of quality training working on shorter, faster, harder workouts, my body has completely lapped up the challenge & change. it was great to get some wise advice & feedback from a trainer friend of mine whom i respect and value his advice. week one of my blog you can see i was trying to test myself in every area & push my absolute limits to see where my fitness lies - strength & conditioning - 80 - 90% heavier weights workout, cardiovascular - road cycling & skipping, flexibility - practice high kicks 60 reps on each side & splits, boxing/kickboxing 2hours. i have always had an attitude of all or nothing and what that first week taught me was i was not able to sustain that type of training, also trying to fit it all in between work was testing and I was so sore & tired. therefore the conclusion is what i always talk about is training "smarter not harder" and actually listening to myself & taking my own advice.

T - 40

1. 1 hour chinese massage
2. light recovery swim in the surf

a great rest day and my mind, body & soul sits at ease after accepting the fact that my body has a chance to regenerate and not playing the guilty mind games with myself.
