ouch, Ouch, OUCH!

Now why weren’t our bodies created to warn you that the exercise you are doing will make walking near impossible to walk the next day? Ouch….
Now having recently had a baby (four months ago) I have jumped back on the healthy and fit bandwagon. I have been working out for about 3 months and have gradually added to my routine to get fit. Well yesterday I decided to up my weights while doing my strength training and now I am really paying for it. And while I am sitting here looking at the things I really should be doing, I fear walking for the pain! So I ask you why oh why didn’t my body stop me from torturing myself. There wasn’t any inkling that I would be in so much pain today. Your body just lets you go on thinking you are stronger than what you are. “10 more squats? Sure, no problem” Fast forward to morning….Trying to get out of bed to get your kid off to school only to have him laughing at ya. “Mom, you walk funny” If looks could kill, he would be a goner.
So heed my warning, beware of the evil voice in your head that tells you that you can keep going and going without any regard to your well being. consider yourself warned!
I wish I had a recent birthing to blame some of my workout body aches & pains on. Mine come from inconsistency and not having the abilities of days gone by :) I am trying hard to increase my workout intensity without killing myself along the way. Glad to hear you are hitting it hard and sticking with it. Good luck!
My sister and I were talking about this just a week or so ago. We we talking about the things “no one told us” would happen after giving birth.
Anyone know how sore you get after not Horseriding for sometime?!!!!
you find muscles aching you didnt even know you had!
what is the old saying…”no pain, no gain!”
