Physical fitness is not only
one of the most important keys to a healthy body;
it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity.
-John F. Kennedy
Tuesday night I got exactly 3.5 hours of sleep - went to sleep at a reasonable hour, gotten woken up and just couldn’t go back to sleep. Got up at 5am to go to the gym, went home and slept a bit and woke up super tired! I was dying to break down and have a Sugar Free Rockstar to get me moving but since that isn’t anything close to Paleo I just sucked it up and went to the gym without a lot of excitement or hope for a good workout….and guess what?!?!? I felt GREAT the rest of the day! Energy was high, attitude was good and since I didn’t put any weird chemical drink in my body I am guaranteed a great nights sleep tonight!! It’s cliche, but sleep, nutrition and exercise is the key EVERYTHING!!!
Speaking of which - check out the following book (the library has copies of it!):
Today’s WOD:
20 1 Armed KB Swings
20 1 Armed Split Push Press
20 Cross Chops
x3
I was in the same boat, got 4 hours sleep and totally dogged it on this WOD. But after the WOD, i had more energy for the rest of the day, stayed away from the Rockstar as well, had a good lunch, and was good most of the day, and slept early last night to catch up.
Yay!! See…..this stuff does work!
when you wake up, go to the kitchen and squeeze some lemon into a big glass of water and drink up. this helps to naturally detoxify your system, and my also help clear your complexion. eat lots of fruits/vegetables. exercise enough to where you feel happy and healthy; vary what you do so you don’t get bored. try to go to a gym with friends; you’ll be more motivated.Square Peg Web
