TweetWednesday and Saturday
So I had Wednesday and Friday off from work which was nice long weekend. I've had some technological difficulties this weekend with my cell phone going to crap and internet in my house being weird. Either way both days I had really good exercises and my strength is up across the boards which is awesome. I hit weight that I've handle in the past but it feels easier or I'm able to do more reps which I'm excited about.
I took the 5 days off from work to make sure my recovery was top notch as well. I did some extra stretching and foam rolling Thursday morning since I didn't go to the gym. I didn't set an alarm all weekend and slept as much as I could. And once a week I take an Epsom salt bath. I figured coupling all of that with the extra food for the holidays that my body would be ready to rebound and grow going into the depths of winter.
But I woke up yesterday with a bad sore throat which turned into a full on cold. I was hanging out with my g/f last night and shivering and then sweating. I was very uncomfortable and didn't sleep much at all last night. I'm going on like 3 hours of sleep as I type this and my head feels like it's 100lbs. My ears are blocked and I just feel blah. Today is supposed to be legs and back day but I'm still undecided on what I want to do. I may skip the gym and go home and relax or I might go and take it easy in hopes I just wear myself out and I pass out tonight.
