I had a lovely big post worked out here, detailing my minor annoyances and niggles and how they seem to bog me down, and typically WordPress refused to save it and I lost nearly all of it…. someone up there is having a good giggle at my expense.
So instead here’s a good old-fashioned whinge.
I’m absolutely shattered today, I think it must be two pretty tough training sessions in three days combined with a lack of food. I’m on a bit of a healthy eating kick as Christmas is just around the corner now, and the likelihood of me being good over that holiday is slim at best! I’ve also set myself a goal of losing another stone before my next grading which is now only two and a half weeks away! Either way, I feel as weak as a kitten today, that same feeling you get after your first training session back after a bad illness. My knees, shoulder and elbow are hurting (the elbow’s my fault, hyperextending during punching drills – stupid!), and I managed to open my knuckle doing knuckle pushups last night. Over the holidays though we’re encouraged – nay, ordered – to do nothing training related in order to give our bodies a chance to rest and repair themselves. It’s a nice treat and really helped last year. I only wish I had it now, I have a class on Friday, a Drew Neale Sparring seminar Sunday lunchtime, a class Sunday evening followed by an hour of extra sparring training.
*gulp*
