Day 9: Energy fluctuations

Today was amazing - I had so much energy, I was so excited and happy!  I had a potentially exciting proposition from a friend in Canada that I need to consider.  And I was pretty focused at work and got things done.

After work I cycled to my sports massage therapist Adam, who released apparently endless knots in my back and neck.  On the ride home I felt okay but it's always a bit funny after the massage because of all the toxins that get released from your muscles and make you feel a bit unwell.

Back home, it was 8pm, I had some rice and got started on today's Cardio dvd rather unenthusiastically.  I was feeling a bit nauseous and dizzy from the massage but managed to get zoned into the flow of movement.  I thought there were going to be 5 rounds of the flow in the main part of the workout and I managed to make it all the way to the end of round 5.  I was so proud of myself!  I was so ready for the little rest that Travis was going to give me.  But there were still 5 rounds to go!  In my delicate state this set me back emotionally and I sat out the last 5 in a bit of a grump.  I managed the rest of the dvd but my heart wasn't in it and I feel like today's yoga was a bit of a failure.  So frustrating!

I think I used up all my energy reserves by 8pm and that last few hours of the evening tired me out.  Better get some sleep and start fresh again tomorrow.
