I am working on building muscle... slowly.
It's been a slow process because I don't want to be obsessive.
I am just following along with my system of heading to the gym consistently and seeing changes in my body as a result...
Instead of obsessing over the changes in my body and...
Long work week - what I did this morning instead
I'm exhausted. It's been a long work week, and I'm exhausted. Paul and I decided we are going to do evening workouts on Fridays, so I let myself sleep in this morning and not go to run class. But I know that moving my body is still important. We went for a long walk together along the beach.
