I've got an appointment with A the new trainer today. At 7:30. Ugh...I HATE working out that late in the day, but it was the only time we could work with each other's schedule. And I really don't want to get a new trainer now that I've been working with him for so long.
He's awesome. He insists in believing I'm stronger than I am, and he insists that I prove him right. And dammit...he's usually right.
He doesn't let me get lazy. If I was able to curl 25 lbs last week, then I can do 30 this week. I always am amazed discovering what I can do. However, I plan to be ridiculously sore tomorrow due to his ability to find new, unique muscles I never even knew I had. So, I think I will probably go and do a short run before going to the gym tonight in case I'm too sore tomorrow. (Yes, I realize doing both is just going to make me more sore in the long run...but it makes sense in my head so shut it).
Now I just need to figure out where to fit in eating. If I don't eat before I go to the gym, I'm gonna crash and it will not be pretty. But, I can't eat before running b/c then I get sick (and if I eat too late before going to the gym same issue). I'm always so bad at figuring out how to fuel myself for working out.
I probably shouldn't try to squeeze in a run before hand, but it's been a day. And I feel like I need to go. I just hope it makes me feel better.
Happy Hump Day!

I'm feeling vigorous, I worked out with a dumbbell today.
