Now that I'm nursing less, I'm gaining more. Drat I was hoping my matabolism would kick back in, but apparently not. So back to working out for me. I have been altering cardio workouts with working muscle areas, which for me also ends up being a cardio workout. Yesterday I worked my thighs, lower back, and tushy. Ow. Ow. and ow. What has happened to me? In college there were days that I danced for 9 hours, but a 20 min. workout kicks my butt now? I am so sad.
I'm not just sad for me and my sore road back to an almost fit body, but I'm sad for people as a whole. We spend all our time on computers and watching tvs that we have to do it some more to fix our bodies back up. (I use instructional videos for my excercising). We have replaced hard work with excercise eqipment that serves no other purpose but to torture our bodies back in shape. We never used to have exercise equipment, and yet in the ye old days no one was fat. Everybody worked....HARD. Their bodies were fit and lean and they died of smallpox rather than heart attacks. I'm not really sure that's better, but my point is we run like the dickens telling people we have no time for anything, and yet we still sit and watch our favorite tv shows, at least I do!
Funny how things change, but aside from becoming amish, we have no choice but to roll with what we've got and what we've got is a lot of technology to make us fat then make us thin again. Perhaps it's a conspiracy.
Either way I will continue to workout this way until my body either gets used to it or my legs fall off, whichever comes first, though today I must admit it feels like the latter. Ryan assures me it will only take a couple more weeks and I'll be ready for something more difficult. Ha easy for him to say! He works out the old fashioned way...at work! He not only spends all day perfecting his fabulous arm, leg, and tummy muscles(as well as a wierd one in his elbow he gets from twisting and gripping tools all day), He gets paid for it! People spend tons of money on gyms! Morons! Get yourself a physical job and you get paid to work out! Perhaps it's more conspiracy I couldn't say for sure. All I know is it's not right that he gets more and more fit while I get more and more unfit. After all, I was fit until I got married! I blame him......because I can. At least my fingers stay in excellent condition from all this typing!
