And week 2 begins

With week 1 done and dusted let week 2 roll on.
I chose to do Tuesday's abs and tone work out as we are doing our bike riding tomorrow.
Interesting work out, I got through it but as I have so many dysfunctional joints and muscles that it was hard to keep up even with the beginners.
The biggest surprise is that I'm doing  exercises that have previously aggravated some very dysfunctional muscles .I'm pushing through at my own pace and yeh ,no pain! It's amazing, it's actually loosening up my joints.  Mish giving constant advise to keep to my own pace is paying off. I think at gym classes I push harder and cause more muscle strain than strengening. The penny has dropped, I may be aerobicly fit enough to do more but my muscles need more time to relearn to do their job correctly.
As silly as this sounds, it is so much better that no one sees me doing my workout, I don't feel pressured to work faster . Don't get me wrong, I enjoy pushing the envelope , I like the feeling of working hard ,but with some exercises I just have to be a little more patient. The most difficult exercise is the Russian kicks. I can hardly lift my right leg off the floor. I'm sure it will improve .
And the burpies, what ever they are called, all this get up and down, wow it's making muscles work that had given up years ago. Great program Mish!!!!!
It will be interesting looking back over this in the next few weeks to see how I progress.
I know I'm rambling, but another great thing is Mish's words of wisdom re positive thoughts and attitudes. I allow those horrid negative thoughts to immobilize me in all aspects of my life. Fear of failure has been my greatest enemy.
My new goal is to clear out all those negative thoughts .
Enough drivvle for one night, I'm not going to get onto food. That hasn't been too bad so I will leave at that!  Good night and god bless.    Let day 2 begin.
Cheers.
