Wow, that body detox went by FAST! I did have a few hard times, but just kept my mindset strong and slammed back a large glass of water if my mind started playing tricks on me.
Got through the full three days only drinking down extracted Veggie-Juice concoctions of mine, and water
So Monday morning actually came around and it seemed like those past three days really whizzed by.
Today I did my first workouts. Here is my thought process on this…
In the past, I have tried to go hard on a workout routine right out of the gates, but time and time again I get so stiff and sore the following days, that I give up.
I’m sure most people are like that. If you haven’t done any good hard physical exercise in a long time, then you all of a sudden jump into it, you get very sore for like five days following, right!?
Well, not this time my friends… This time I am doing things the RIGHT WAY!
This morning I got on my stationary recumbent Schwinn bike. I did a full 30 minutes at about 50% MHR. Sure felt amazing when I finished!
Then later in the day, I did a full body cardio routine and included some various push ups and ab exercises.
I have decided that I will do “that” routine for my first three days this week to condition my body back into a more active state. Then I will start adding in some weight routines, and next week, I will hit it up harder.
It’s not about speed, it is about doing it right so your results are with you long term.
Here is a quick video I made right after getting off the bike this morning.
Stay strong,
