a wasted week?

Due to a death in the family, a lot of travel, and sickness that spread throughout the household, i found only one workout this week. A wasted week? maybe, maybe not. Now here's something to think about, we have a finite number of workout days, no matter who you are, what you do sooner or later these days will be over. Now before you go scrambling to grab the nearest sweating to the oldies tape, remember, we as humans need stimulus and time to absorb what we've done. I think it is a good thing to break from your workout routine once a while and let our bodies( especially the bodies over 35) time to recoup. now does that mean throw down some ho-hos and lie prone for one week? no, but take yourself off the routine treadmill. go for a walk, take a swim, play with your children, and enjoy a french fry once a while. I for one am glad for this time off, and it makes me look even more forward to tomorrow's weight training session. Now the jogging? that's a different story.
