After 4 weeks of HC...

[hippahips]

I'm taking a break! My hats off to those of you who are going through with your rotations. I'm simply exhausted. I was able to up my weights on many exercises, but my muscles are screaming for time alone. I'm switching to yoga for a while -- the relaxing kind, not the power version. I'm going to teach my boy how to in-line skate. I'm going on a book hunt. I'm going on long walks to see if the Texas bluebonnets are out already. Maybe I'll paint the study. Again. You get the idea...

Good for you, Pinky! Rejuvinate your spirit and be gentle with your body. Take the time to smell the roses, sister ;-)

Pinky,

I don't think you're alone. Quite a few Hardcore exercisers in another forum were reporting that they too started to feel the effect of overtraining after a few weeks. Hardcore is Tough! Take some time off, and I'm sure you'll be ready to hit it again soon.

Enjoy the bluebonnets! I'm in Houston - no bluebonnets near me yet, but beautiful Azaleas!!!

Take Care,
Joy
