Exercise:
Feeling/Reaction:
50 Jumping Jacks
Started feeling nauseas by the end of these. Just wasn't feeling good in general.
7 Push Ups
Pushed through the 7 at 105*. Nothing special of note.
20 Crunches
Felt good. Started to feel better. Working my abdominals.
30 Mountain Climbers
Had no problem getting through these. Felt fine.
45 Second Plank
Workin' it! My abdominals were certainly burning by the end. Felt great!
20 Crunches
Felt good. I enjoy feeling my muscles burning.
1/3 Mile Run (Approx.)
Started jogging and by the time I hit the park I was feeling really queasy. I pushed myself (after a walking break) to jog a little further. I made it to approximately the half way point and then couldn't jog any further. The inside of my left knee started to hurt and my left thigh bone started to ache.
2/3 Mile Walk (Approx.)
Decided to walk the rest of the way back to the house. My knee and thigh continued to hurt. My stomach began to calm down. I started to badger myself about not pushing myself to keep running. I had to remind myself that I need to listen to my body, not my ego. My body said to slow down, so I did. Some movement is better than none.
10 Lunges
Did these while walking home. Wanted to make sure I remembered to do them.
20 Counter Supported Push Ups
I decided to skip the step ups and stair hops because bouncing around seemed to upset my stomach (jumping jacks, jogging). Finished off strong with my counter push ups. My arms felt great.
