Making fresh goals in the run up to christmas may seem alien to most, but it may be exactly what you need!
If 2012 seems a long way away, you may be shocked to hear its only 18 days away!!! 18 days left until the end of the year!!!
If it seems stupid to look forward until then, you may be glad you did in a couple of weeks.
Only once did i decide not to train for a couple of weeks over christmas, and i suffered like never before!
My asthma came back in a big way, i was wheezing like i was on 40 a day! My first run back nearly half killed me and i felt as much out of shape as i have ever done!!!
After that run, i decided there and then NEVER to stop training over christmas again!!!
I have spoken to many, many people since and they have been through the same thing.
I have even been running christmas day, thats not to impress you but it was more to do with my desperation to rid myself of that wheezy stodgy feeling that comes with over-eating, over-drinking and under-exercising!!!
This is to potentially save you those horrible interal feelings of no energy, and literally no get up and go.
So whatever schedule you are on now, i would try to still keep it up to some degree. If you currently workout 5 times a week in some form, i would still try and do 3 times a week even if its light to moderate intensity. This will take care of all the excess calories and help you feel more like your normal self.
The big thing it will also give you is a flying start to 2012!!! Just when everyone else will be going through the Groundhog day of starting to exercise and eat healthy, you will already be making fresh goals from a very strong position!!!
If that sounds attractive, lets get going and keep on going!!!!
your right Keri, it does sound attractive, sadly there is nothing I can do at the moment. Still rough on second lot of biotics, know you dont like them but what can I do. My voice is a little better, but then I lose it again once I have spoken for a few minutes. Have spent £s, tried everything, do you have any suggestions? Manuka Honey with lemon and blackcurrant with hot water, countless cough medicines, throat lozengers too many to mention. The hot burning pain in my chest is going tho, but I have weakness in my legs, tried goin into town today, had to come home. Dont know why it is taking so long to leave me, dont think I will be having my night out with the girls before Christmas, will have to do it after. Really hope to be back next week.
u sound as if you have tried everything anyway jean!!!
personally the all cure for me has always been a straight whisky, a whole lemon eating the skin too! and manuka honey, that works for me every time, and usually done twice over a 4 hour period!!!
let me know how it goes and as i told you, i have never seen colds/flu/viruses so big and long lasting!!!
Will do Ta Keri.
