Much Too Much?
Maybe my friends are right. Just maybe.
So I’ve traded my old sedentary lifestyle for a lifestyle of excess in the other direction…always doing something, and that something always seems to be fitness/workout related.
What clicks in your mind that makes you go from one extreme to the other? I know Matt would argue I’ve always been that way…that when I do something it’s hardcore but then I drop it just as hard as fast as I started. This seems different tho, this has gone on for almost 9 months now, with no signs of stopping. I used to do stuff for a month or so, then completely stop (darts, Playstation, etc).
For example. I get up at about 5:30am every morning, go workout for a little over an hour (weights and some cardio). I have started riding my bike to/from work (more on that in a sec). Then bootcamp at night for at least an hour. Thats at close to 3 hours of workout a day.
Is this my middle ground? I have gone from 0 hours a day working out, to 8 hours a day, to 4-5 hours a day, now 3 hours a day.
Back to biking. Last week I started riding my bike to work almost every day. It’s only 4.5 miles one way, takes me about 15 mins (which is how long it used to take me to drive it). I have wished almost daily that my work was further away…because by the time I finally break a sweat I’m walking into my office! Okay, I AM OBSESSED. It’s final.
