I've been frustrated by different rounds of injuries my body has gone through lately.
One day I will have strong pain in my wrist that I can't lift weights or do push-ups…or my love: plank.
The past couple days I've had knee pain that I've had to do lighter cardio and then yesterday the pain was so awful as I climbed in bed last night that I knew I needed to lay off completely or something worse could happen.
I think the knee pain is from a longer run on Saturday. Not too sure about the wrist pain (it's gone away now).
Add another round of mastitis last week and I'm frustrated.
I just want to feel 100%.
Oh, and I want sleep.
(A girl can dream here.)
I have goals I want to meet (badly) and I feel sad when I can't get in the gym and give it my all.
Anyone else?
This is another one of those "I thought I would never be one those people" posts, apparently…
One thing I do have to remember though is that living a healthy lifestyle is 70% nutrition and 30% exercise. So, I may not be able to get my best workout in one day but what I fuel my body with during the day is even more important and I can focus on that.
Speaking of proper fuel, I had an amazing carrot cake smoothie for breakfast! Thanks, Kyle, for whipping that up this morning. Just carrots, frozen banana, almond milk, splash of vanilla, greek yogurt, flaxseed, & some cinnamon or nutmeg. (And thanks, Steph, for the recipe!) It was a great start to my day.
So, I'm praying for all these injuries and pain to go away so that I can get back to 100%.
It feels so good to sweat it out each morning.
