For some reason, as an adult I've had a much harder time adjusting to working out two separate times in one day. On one hand, doing two workouts makes me feel tough! I'm an athlete again! I rock! On the other hand...I'm exhausted. My body has never felt quite so creaky and tired. I'm sure this is just the adjustment period, and it will get easier as I get stronger.
Right?
Right... I think it's just revving up from 0 (or 2, or 3) to N workouts that's hard... once you're doing it, it's not as bad.
ReplyDeleteI was talking to Allison tonight about increasing workout volume and she basically said, "awesome, but do that (wod/lift 5 days/week) for another week or two (where I've been doing it for 2-3 weeks) and then plan a lighter week before you resume"... I thought that was good advice. She's the ripped-est woman I know, so I'll basically do anything she tells me to.
I did PR front squat 145# for 3 reps and jerk 115# for 2 reps, what what?!
