It's No Surprise To Me I Am My Own Worst Enemy*

Workout
45 minutes of Level 3 Rock Climb on the elliptical

*The song that got me moving today: My Own Worst Enemy by Lit.

And it's true. I am. After doing The Shred yesterday, my legs were so sore, I contemplated taking a day off. But the trainer I worked with during my biggest loser contest told me things that sunk in. Things like, "You're sore? Aw, poor Leslie. You worked hard yesterday, huh? THAT'S NO EXCUSE TO QUIT! IF IT DOESN'T HURT IT DOESN'T COUNT!!!!"

There is a difference between soreness and injury. If you're working hard enough to force your body to change, you're probably going to be sore. It's easy for a marshmallow like me to call that an injury and sit out the day. But I've learned that the best thing for my sore muscles is to move them. And for the first time since I re-started my journey to fitness, at the end of today's workout, I felt strong. I felt like I wanted to keep going. So, that's progress, I think.
