P90X, Week 2, Day 6

Today has been an interesting one. I scheduled myself a day off, basically, so that I could attend my step aerobics this morning. Considering how late I finished my workout last night, I overslept this morning and felt very tired. I was able to get the kids to school on time as usual, and I made it to my step aerobics class with little to nothing on my stomach (a granola bar), which is probably a good thing, because everything in your stomach sloshes around the entire time. It was a great class, and I really worked hard. I sweat, sweat, sweat. So, I came home from that, took a shower, and met both of my kids at school for lunch. That took up a good portion of my day, because my daughter's lunch and my son's lunch are spaced so far apart. I know that they love it when I come, and it was worth sitting in that LOUD lunchroom just to see the smiles on their faces. After lunch (it was around 1 PM), I came home and CRASHED. HARD. I slept until 4 pm when the kids got home, and then I even went back to lay down once they got here. I am thinking I either crashed due to all the exercise or maybe I'm coming down with something. I had a horrible headache, too (which could be related to the extremely loud lunchroom), but took some extra strength pain reliever and feel ok now.

I debated on whether or not to do my P90x workout today, which was Kenpro X. I waited until after dinner, popped it in, and pushed "play". I suddenly started to feel more energetic. I made it through the workout, and was covered in sweat by the end. It's really a fun workout; I could see where muscles are starting to form in my arms as I watched myself throwing the punches and blocks.

So, crashing wasn't fun, and I don't know what I can do to prevent that in the future. I ate as soon as I got home from Step Aerobics, and I snacked (healthy snacks) all day long, as well as ate a balanced lunch and dinner. I'm out of my protein shakes, so I'm not sure if that is what made the difference. If I'm coming down with something, I guess I will know very soon.

That is all... Good night!
