Last week started with an awesome 18 hours or so. Waking up at the right time, good diet and excellent gym session where I pumped out a full intense cardio session along with a greatupper body weights session. Was really looking forward to a good game of oztag but unfortunately we were short on players and had a lot of newbies to work with. This means a lot more running in general and running after breaks. While turning and rocketing off towards one such break I felt a dreaded Twang! I had done my hamstring again. Luckily I got off earlier and rested or else it would have been much more painful.
From this point on my week slowly declined to a chaotic river Styx. The river picked me up and pulled me under throwing off all my exercise regime, dietary regime and completely throwing me out of whack. I was missing even little simple things like walking the dog and brushing my teeth. This pattern has continued to flow until midday today.
I managed to drag myself to shore by going shopping and getting the components of my diet that I was missing. The positive of the last week arose today because as soon as I got my food set I felt like I was back on track with everything. This shows how reliant I have become on following my desired diet that it has the power to throw me off completely or draw me back in. I take this as a positive because I can now realise a good tactic to pull myself out of a hole, correct my diet. You see, every lesson, good or bad, will teach you something good. Feeling a hell of a lot better than upon waking this morning. I need to "dump and burn" those negative feelings and emotions from last week and use it to take off at even greater speeds. Take Off Begins Now, Alpha and Out!
