Today I drove to the park instead of running since my legs felt a bit dead. I will need them next week. I did 3 sets of 4 exercises instead of 5 sets of 3 exercises. The goal was to do all 5 of my super sets but I cut off at 4 due to not feeling like getting in the last one. It also worked out time wise.
On another note, I saw my friends that at one time wanted to do races with me, and Rob Beeler who has. The takeaway is that I am glad that I have made working out a habit for the last 20 years. All of these guys had taken a decade or more off and their bodies broke down once they tried to kick them into motion.
Rob's doctor told him about the many imbalances that he had in his body and that caused his problems. Funny thing is that Rob worked with a personal trainer who also noticed the imbalances but ignored them since he was working him into the packaged Cross Fit routine.
Another guy went to a dietician several years ago and lost 100 pounds. I asked what the nutritionist did to help him and he just told him to eat Paleo and eat right.
It is unbelievable to me that these guys paid as much money as they did and all they ever needed to do was exercise and eat right.
