Monday, July 11, 2011  Learning to Listen  I have rarely missed
a day since I started working out.  I had my rest day
yesterday.  I went to bed last night fully expecting to wake up
and go hit the pavement this morning.  When my alarm went off, I
just didn't feel right this morning.  It was different than the
"I just don't want to work out feeling." It was more of my body
telling me NOT to work out.  I am trying to walk the line
between listening to my body or being lazy.  I want to listen to
my body, because the last thing I want to do is get hurt.  That
would really frustrate me to no end. I also really do not want
to miss a day.  I know rest days are important.  How do you all
walk that line?  I really don't want to be lazy, but I want to
learn to listen to what my body needs.  What are your
experiences with this?   giraffe said...  when that happens,
