I'm starting to get that lazy feeling I got when I did the Phase 1 recovery week. The feeling that I'm not doing enough and I'm just going to revert to my old self.
That isn't the case, however. I realize that, even if I did drop everything right now, it would take more than a week to return to my original weight and frame. Not that I'd want that. Never again. I'm on the cusp of having the body I've always wanted and I'm not going to give it all up now.
Yesterday was Kenpo and I loved it. I want to do it more because it's just so refreshing. Less trauma on my knees than Plyo, but it still gets my heart pounding.
I had mentioned I wanted to do something extra during Phase 2, but I never actually followed through. Phase 3 will be different. I fully intend on doing extra cardio throughout in an effort to rend the fat from my bones. Heck, I'm already able to do more pull-ups and chin-ups than I've ever been able to do in my life.
I notice I tend to fixate on my upper body and not so much on my legs. The reason being is my legs have always been strong and lean. I'm not terribly concerned if I can squat a quarter of a ton. I'm more interested in having those nice pecs that lean folks have. Abs would be nice, too, but I'd be happy with a flat stomach right now. It's so close, I can taste it, but there's still that layer of fat that refuses to let go...
Today is an easy Stretch day. I'm going to feel extra lazy, but I need to do it. I've skipped my last two stretch days; one because of my knee, the other because of work.
