I forgot to log for training on Monday, so I will combine a short note for Monday and Tuesday. My run on Sunday, Spiritual Sunday, greatly influenced my recent workouts. As noted, on Sunday I ran for nearly 1.5 hours, half the distance uphill. My legs haven’t been so sore in nearly a year, but it feels good.

On Monday, I experienced gains on my weight lifting. This continued into Tuesday too, in addition, running today was easier. In the past, I was doing intense work outs 3-4 times per week. I believe the breaks between may have contributed to the lack of performance; and I believe this is because I work on computers and study a lot, so there isn’t much activity other then the workouts. With the extra activity over the weekend, I immediately felt gains. I’m considering more activities, but I still want to be patient for steady gains, to avoid a physical burnout. When I took the creatine supplement several weeks ago, I noticed an immediate change in motivation and performance, Really Strong Day. I felt a similar experience with the extra training leading into this week, so I think I found a natural solution to the creatine question, as mentioned in the previous linked article. Now the challenge is to balance between all of them, as not to burn out.
