RE: I actually came up with a cute little introduction and all that but...

yeah, well once you get in a routine with it you will most likely only feel bad on the days you are taking a break. That first month will be hard forsure. I remember how much pain I would be in if I stopped training for a few days. Way more then when I did...except for that first month. I remember this time when I had flown to LA from Hawaii and was staying at my homegirls house. I woke up around 3:30 am and grabbed my gloves, jump rope and was walking in my socks to the front door to get my shoes and all of a sudden I hear this sound in the direction of the cold tile beneath my feet.. I had not trained in about 3 days and started feeling my muscles begin to tighten up but wasn't really trippin... until I hear this sound. I think back and it sounded like styrofoam ripping or more like the sound a t-shirt makes if you rip it apart. It was my calf! From walking across the tile of all things! It is even possible that the noise I heard was only in my head but it seemed so loud! I did not make it to the gym that day... it took weeks for that to get better.

Sort:  

Exactly, once your in a routine it begins to feel like a problem when your missing that! I remember taking a session off here and there and feeling bad and full of energy.
I remember after my first day of serious training going right into it, the next morning I woke up and almost collapse as my calves were just shot!
Ooooh that sounds painful hearing those sounds coming from your calves! I’ve had similar in my back...
I can’t wait to get back into a training routine that’s for sure, it helps me out in all sorts of ways. It’s so cold and snowy at the moment in England it’s hard to get motivated to do all that much...

England huh? Have you ever been to the US?

Yep I’m English:) snow has all melted already and the sun is out! It’s actually quite warm at the moment!
Yep I’ve been to the US quite a few times, recently spent 10 weeks in California:) loved it. Where abouts do you live in the us?

I live in Texas now. about 6 months. I have had a serious case of wanderlust for years tho. Before Tex, it was Boston, Hawaii, Vail, Vegas, Arizona, California, and I have traveled to about 26 states over the last 3 years. What brought you to Cali?

Cool I’ve wanted to visit Texas for a while, do you like it there? I’ve been having my wanderlust phase currently and over the past 2-3 years! Awesome you’ve lived in some great places! Where would you recommend?
I have some friends there and wanted to do some hiking etc :) was so amazing, I love it there! I wish I could go back for longer

Kona, Hawaii. The BOMB! Or Vail, Co or Aspen to ski winter or hike in the summer

I’ve been wanting to go to Hawaii for years! I’m figuring it a way I can stay there for a while :)
