Same. But I was standing.
This is what I think too. I have a feeling if I skip an hour of sleep and force exercise, it will become normal, but it’s so damn hard to get out of bed!
This is when you know you need to take a few days off!Same. But I was standing.
I never get enough sleep, so that’s always the winner for me. So I’ve adapted and don’t even try to do morning work outs anymore. I am just not a morning person and that routine will never work well for me.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it now but hopefully I can get a smaller one to put on my helmet. 
Love the sticker! Maybe your water bottle?After eating greasy fried food at an amusement park yesterday I put in a long sweaty workout this morning and finished with some skill practice on my skates and it felt amazing.
A few days ago I got a new sticker in the mail for my helmet but when I went to apply it today realized it's too big.

That's a great idea!
The answer is likely sleep, but it really depends on how much sleep one is getting regularly. Most people already aren't getting enough sleep, so trading an hour for exercise isn't going to help long term. But for people who are getting 9-10 hours, different story, you can likely make that trade.
Windy but sunny and a spectacular view! Hope your run was good Cat!
The weather has improved immensely! God dag!

I mean, windy, rainy and chilly does have its own merits as well.
I was just talking to someone about how much more in tune I am with my body now as an older athlete, than I was in my “prime” athlete years. BTW, I throw the term athlete out very loosely, lol. Breathing, heart rate, running and cycling forms, I’m so much more in tune now than I have ever been.
Also, your HR range is insanely good!! My resting is mid 50s and my max is 189, with an easy running pace around 150 and cycling is around 130. 220!!
I completely agree, it doesn’t matter what you do, as long as you are doing something. Anything is a step towards a happier and healthier you, and that looks different for everyone. This is a great thread for support and to bounce ideas or questions off of.Yes!!!
I agree, wholeheartedly agree!!
In my younger days.. breathing, the correct form.. I never thought much of it.
Mainly because it came so naturally.. But still, there is a qualitative difference between knowing what you are doing and understanding what you need to and just going it, because it feels right.
It is so much easier now to fine-tune those small, but oh-so-important components in your workout, enabling you to reach the next level.
In some regards, I am not even annoyed with my age and experience.
Your HR is not bad at all! Wow..
I know mine is a bit out of normal range.
My heart has been MRi scanned, ultrasound scanned and examined backwards and forwards.
It is pretty darn strong and healthy.. Just a bit weird.
The kind doctors even tried to lower my HR with beta blockers.. that might have been the most woozy and unpleasant run ever! Needless to say, that did not work.
My point is: we do not all fall into the standard scheme, and most of us got our own things to work with.
This is one of the reasons why I like this thread so much!!
There is room for everyone, and you can always count on someone here to cheer you on.
New month and a new workout plan, I’m trying to be more diversified. I did a HIIT workout with the main focus being legs. A bunch of different squats and lunges, etc. I also went for a 2 mile walk hoping to move out some lactic acid. I can report this morning that there is plenty of lactic acid built up, I’m sore as fuck!
Im not full on robot legs and picking those apples up would probably stretch them out and feel good. The plane ride over on the other hand will definitely lock them back up, lol.Ouch! All stiff robot legs today? .... So, if I asked you to pick up the apples from my lawn, you would not jump up in glee and joy?
Okay, but in all honesty: @mobleedzblue, you need to stretch!! Especially your hips. They are the culprits when it comes to a lot of pain, and having done HIIT with focus on legs, lunges and squats, they will be tight.
You should definitely spend about 20-30 minutes today stretching. Not too far!! But finding that Goldilocks place, and breathe into the different stretches.

It's all good! Ice is helping, it's just purple.
You hitching a ride with that thing?It's all good! Ice is helping, it's just purple.
