What do you do when you fail the sprint on the first day?
My weekend was shit. I didn’t do anything productive, I ate like shit all weekend. It’s been a long time since I’ve really flamed out that badly. Why? I really don’t know, I wasn’t feeling the greatest but I can’t point to anything bad where I said I have to binge to fix this. I can’t even say binging really made me happy, it was like clinging to an old blanket that used to keep my warm but now is ratty and full of holes and doesn’t work anymore.
So what do you do? Do you cancel the sprint, do you have a short sprint? No, you wake up early Monday & say fuck that, I’m going to do the best I can for every item remaining on the sprint, and you have a bad ass gym session and feel like a god damn champion after that workout. I closed my move ring before I even left the gym!
I do think there need to be some tweaks, but I’m not sure what. I’m flirting with the idea of not weighing myself, or only doing it once a week. I feel like I’m too focused on the scale, and that’s never going to give me the results I want it to, much as I hate to admit it. Plus, comparing measurements on Saturday between this week and last week was pretty great – I could see places where I was losing, even if it was only a little bit, and it was motivating to see those changes. So maybe weekly weigh-ins are the way to go. I definitely have a disordered relationship with the scale….yeah, the more I think about this, the more I want to try it. I’m adding it to next week’s backlog.
Oh, another thing – So I skipped the last day of Magnus’ WW84 workout, I kept putting it off and then I just didn’t do it. So I was thinking, man, gotta start over with week one today…and then I said fuck that, I did 3/4 workouts and the 4th workout is just a 2nd leg session. I’m doing week 2, maybe I’ll make up that missed workout later or maybe I won’t but I’m not going to let perfect be the enemy of the good.
