"Overtraining"

"There is no such thing as overtraining...just under-resting"
-Mark Toorock (or Wolf)

The minute you think of the word overtraining in the gym, conciously or not, you are placing limits on your workout. These limits attempt to hold you back and stop progression through the fear of overtraining.

That said, I've found myself falling asleep and taking random half hour naps or so. For those of you who know me, I pretty much NEVER take a nap in the middle of the day.


Woke up at 6AM excited to train with Jory (one of my favorite pros at the Dog Pound). Turns out he was too sore and was taking the day off so postponed it until the next day.

Went to Golds:
Ran 2 miles
50 reps of Bench Press at 115lbs

Went to the Dog Pound and trained technique and sparring from 10am to 1pm. For the first time, several girls stayed after to spar! Matt said I went a bit too hard on them. It was fun, though!

Around 6, I picked up Maria and went to Golds. Drew, one of the trainers, let us borrow the Prowler. Marina and I alternated going up and down for 12 minutes, first with 90lbs added then we upped it to 180 lbs.




Finally....it was time to go to the GFS and catch up with Marina a bit! The home...food...shower....spending time online. 6:00 AM is going to come awfully fast.... I hope to workout with Jory! Hope I'm not too dead tired though.
