Another week down.

So it's amazing how the more I do stuff, the better my body starts responding. Now don't get me wrong, I definitely have my good and bad days, but overall I'm just sore where I feel like I got a good workout as opposed to barely able to move-dying on the inside. I'm very impressed with my progress. And while I may look the same to almost everyone, I feel different. And this is the first time I've felt different in a long, long time. I love my personal trainer. I absolutely love how he works with me and pushes me and is a dick, but not too much of a dick. He's got this way about him that is awesome. The progress in the last few weeks has been amazing. I'm swimming, biking, doing Muay Thai, Jiu Jitsu, and my personal training and while it's a lot, it's good. I'm keeping busy and active.

Let me recap my week. Friday I was sore from head to toe so I had my personal training at lunch and barely made it through that. Then when I got home, I decided it would be a great idea to mow the yard. Man that is hard work. Sunday I spent 7 hours trimming one of my trees in the front yard. It was grueling work. Amazingly I thought I would be hurting on Monday but I felt great. It was the first day I can remember feeling really good in a long time. I spent my lunch break swimming laps.  Tuesday we took the heavier branches to the dump. Amazingly it only took about 10 minutes to clear the bed of the truck. That night I went to Muay Thai. It was pretty rough as it was very hot and my body just didn't want to do anything. We focused on kicking. And my thighs felt it. Wednesday I had my personal training session and we did upper body. My arms felt weak from the get go. After work I went straight to Jits class. Warm up was pretty rough again tho the class itself was good. I'm getting better with working with people. It's hard especially because I know moves have to be altered to work with my big body.

Today is an off day for me. I was going to go swimming but then opted out. Spent some quality time with my friend during lunch for a change. Tomorrow is another personal training day. He said we'd be working on arms again. That is scary!
