Feelings after a bitter week

Huh, that was one of the worst weeks ever. I am so glad that today I feel better already. Actually I feel great! I feel like leaving that horrible week behind me and starting this one from scratch. It's amazing 'cause this morning wasn't the most zen Monday morning. I woke up, coffee was out, I was nervous about the evaluation today and then my cat peed on a beanbag... WHY?! But nevertheless, I'm happy! I could toast on that. Or have a huge piece of cake - but this week is also going to be about nutrition. I've not been treating my body well after the holidays and it is time to get that one straight too, to avoid horrible weeks like last one. Now it's time to see how last week went with workouts.

I started the week with BODYPUMP and it was awesome. Tuesdays practices went well too but after Wednesday I lost control. I forgot and didn't have the strength to do my squats, on Thursday I had such a busy day I couldn't go jogging (of course the time can always be found - I was just too fed up). Well on Friday I tried to compensate and went to indoor cycling and it did good. Yet again on Saturday I skipped jogging and slept long. On Sunday I went jogging in a little rain before the practice and oh how I enjoyed it. Then at PRD on skate practices I noticed my right buttock is really sore and also the top of the both buttocks are hurting a bit. I think it's just strain from increasing squats in my workout routine. On the other hand I noticed it is again easier to hold my thighs lower. So some part of my body is not keeping up with progress. I tried to do RVP and managed to do squats with both legs, but not the ones with left foot behind. It really hurt. So I did abs too but skipped buttocks and instead did a good stretching for an half an hour. Today it still hurts and the whole upper part of my buttocks is really sore. I need a massage, but hmm I'm a bit insecure about having a buttocks massage! Well I still think I really need it and plenty of stretching as well.

Here is what's coming up on week 5!

Oh how I like the sights of this week. Not just the workouts but the empty evenings I have. I'm gonna take it easy this week - well at least as well as I can. You might have noticed something extra fun on Saturday... YES a boot camp! I love boot camps, they have a whole different atmosphere and lets not forget the HUGE space they have in Pasila. We, the little PRD, who have born in Saksalas miniature sports hall are uttermost excited about the space to skate in Pasila, oh I want to feel the floor under my skates again.

This is it for today. I will get into nutrition tomorrow - boring stuff but essential. I don't know if I'm glad or sad that I've got a bad tempered stomach. It gets irritated easily if I don't eat well and that was one of the reasons I had a bad week. I ate too much sugar and too little veggies. It's more than OK to have your weekly sweets (or in my case my daily sweets) but it must be limited to healthy portions. I also have high blood pressure and cholesterol in family, so I should watch out already, I don't want to get on meds this young. If I play nicely this week, I will reward myself with baking cookies in the weekend.

Dough is the best
