Fitness training with a virus
So I’ve been thinking that I’ve been badly dehydrated this week but I now know I have picked up a virus. I didn’t train Thursday morning and felt fine Thursday during the day but then felt crap again Thursday night. I trained this morning and it went really well (10 sets of weighted squats and then 10 sets of weighted lunges, plus some rapid alternate squat thrusts, power lunges and squat jumps).
About an hour later I was waiting to get the bus to work (as someone stole the car) and I puked my guts everywhere - totally embarrasing. I just headed home and fell asleep for 3 hours. Now I just have a banging headache but am trying to get some work done.
It is so weird how I can feel good enough to train and then it all comes back on me. I’m going to take it easy over the weekend and see how I feel on Monday - hopefully my body will have had chance to recover by then.
I hate this ‘negative’ post - I would much rather be bloggin about all the good shit. However, I guess it needs to be a warts and all blog. I promise there will be lots of positive stuff soon too - I’m finishing work in the next few days and making preparations for Oz - there will be lots of good training sessions and things to talk about.
Cheers, M
