Oh Gosh

I was dead right. I seriously can't move today. I did so many lunges and squats yesterday my body is dying. All night I would wake up to roll onto my stomach or onto my back and every movement ached. I could hardly get out of bed this morning let alone get into the bathtub. Ugh...

I know it is my lactic acid trying to repair my muscles that is making me so stuff, but seriously. I've done personally training in the past (2 years ago) and I've NEVER felt this sore. Maybe I pushed myself too much yesterday. Good news is I lost the 1 pound I had gained over the course of the weekend. :)

I'm going to go for a walk later today around my subdivision. I know the best thing to do when you hurt is to break up the lactic acid and to exercise (even if it aches). I walk so funny right now, so I would prefer not to go to the gym, so I'll take a walk around my subdivision's walking path later this afternoon with my iPod.

I feel pretty good about it all though. You know you've had a good workout when you're a little sore from it. My trainer said we only target each muscle once a week! No more squats for a week. Yay! I guess next time we'll be doing arm work. Ugh, I have the worst upper body muscle...aka NONE!
