Week five, Workout #15

Sorry for the delayed post but kids sports are in full swing...which equates to less time for me.

The last workout of week 5 started with a bit of a scare and maybe the first injury of the program. As I started my warm up with jumping jacks I noted to Anthony that I felt something odd in my left calf. As we continued into the active warm up with running, I began to have an odd feeling in my left achillies; YIKES. As you know I stopped working out 6 years ago because I ruptured my right achillies. While I was excited to do that days workout which was all about running, jumping, and quickness after I run a bit more I realized I would not be able to get 'er done. We called an audible and did a upper body and core workout instead. I came home and iced and rested as much as I could this weekend.

While still sore, I am still looking forward and hoping I can keep it going. Anthony will be tailoring my workouts so we can rest the achillies because you know it would give him a bad rap if I blow out my other achillies on his watch!

On another note butmaybe related, this has been the toughest week with regard to sticking to the program. Mainly on the beer, chip, and pizza front. Maybe it was related to the set back but there were many thoughts of how nice a beer would be. I held true however and stuck to it which I am happy about.

Tomorrow is weight in day and the beginning of week 6.

Until then.
