Well, I was really looking forward to getting back in the groove of things for a second consecutive week. Mother Nature had different plans. The weather reports turned out to be very accurate. My prediction was that we would be snowed in for Monday and Tuesday and the roads would be in good enough condition to resume normal schedules starting Wednesday. I made it outside to exercise both Saturday, for touch football with friends, and Sunday, for one of the weekend workout routines posted online. I thought I was going to be in a good position to resume Boot Camp after sitting at home for 2 days.
As we all know, my road forecast turned out to be wildly optimistic. Step It Up followed Cobb County Schools closing policies and we were forced to cancel all classes last week. Naturally, cabin fever set in and the diet turned from grilled chicken and veggies to whatever I had in the freezer. Somehow, I actually lost a few pounds since I last weighed myself. After this morning's workout I was down to 360 even.
This morning's workout was rough. We partnered with another camper and one would do an exercise while the other ran the perimeter of the basketball gym then the partners would switch. After probably 4 exercises, I was beat. I focused my energy on the jogging portion to at least get a good cardio workout but resistance exercises were a lost cause.
What does it feel like I always say? Get back on the horse. My diet is always better on days that I exercise than off days, so I really want to get in a good groove for the next few weeks. Hopefully Mother Nature will cooperate this time around.
