Very strange morning today. I woke up before the alarm, feeling fine—no muscle aches. But the thought of going outside to work out almost made me feel sick. I couldn’t even imagine doing an intense CrossFit session or a longer run. This is the first time I’ve felt so overwhelmed by the thought of training. I don’t understand what’s happening.
Still, I went outside and settled on doing dips and some core work. For some reason, the idea of doing dips seemed bearable, unlike the thought of an intense workout. The idea of going to the gym also seemed fine, though I don’t have a membership right now. So, here’s what I did:
- 500m warm-up jog
- 4×30 dips
- 4×15 leg raises
Afterward, I walked around the neighborhood for a bit—the weather is still nice. But that’s it. Even as I’m writing this (just after the workout), I still don’t feel like training the way I used to.
Now, my family and I are heading out of town for the weekend. Maybe some time off from my usual routine will help. Either way, I’m trying not to worry too much about this one unusual day.
