Comments

Sleep - Time and Quality: For the first time in weeks I actually fell asleep BEFORE 0500, and slept a very restless 3 hours, waking close to when I wanted to. Made for a very LONG day, though . . .

Mood/Aggression: Ok mood. I am just EXHAUSTED!

Energy: I am seriously dead and dragging my feet. I have been wanting to sleep since ~1400, but have not been able to sleep, and right now I am almost asleep, but not. I will most probably pass out not long after finishing this . . .

Stimulant Effects: None.

Mental Focus and Clarity: Have been with it, but right now I just want to be passed out.

Metabolism: Ok.

Appetite: Was starving at work, and ate a whole lot - food that I definitely should NOT have been eating (SPANKINGS!) and felt quite sick to my stomach afterwards. I need to learn to EAT my food and not INHALE it!

Stress: Higher than ever!

Libido: Fine.

Endurance: Great, considering the way I was feeling.

Strength: This session was NOT about strength - and actually, for me, the weights today were LIGHT, and definitely felt like a "girl" in the gym - NOT a feeling I like!

Pump: Most certainly. It was PAINFUL.

Vascularity: Out of this world. Especially after the food at work, and the after-work drink (I know, more bad!)

Quality of Training: I was simply shattered and in so much pain today that I just forced myself through training with lots of grimaces and cursing. Seriously SHATTERED after the last superset - shorter recovery periods not helping either . . .

Recovery: I ache all over, especially my rhomboids and anterior deltoids.

Body Composition and Look: Better today. Seeing definition well pm.

Other Effects: Felt nauseous in the gym today during resistance training, so forwent my post-weights cardio.

Other Notes: Got my textbooks, bike and cycling stuff, and some of my clothes today. I will unpack my bike tomorrow, and definitely glad to have my textbooks with me again! . . . So shattered at work. Didn't want to be there, to be honest, and was dragging my feet, when normally I am the Energizer Bunny, whipping here, there, and everywhere . . . Had a drink after work as well. Had an allergic reaction to it - burned up, and entire body about 10 minutes later was bright red, as if I'd been sunburnt or applied Eviscerate all over, and burning up real bad, my head pounding more than ever. I have had more alcohol in the last 7 days than I have in the last 7 YEARS! WTF??? I DON'T even like drinking - just like I don't like ice-cream, and I've been eating galleons of it lately . . . I definitely do NOT like this heat. It makes me feel like the walking dead, especially after hammering myself training . . .
