> Vincent also the muscles build up lactic acid which can cause soreness stretch well afterwards and give your body time to recover with a day off inbetween. On the other days is ther something else you can do. Yoga could be good as a lot of stretching. Rome wasn't build in a day. Love Phillipa
I agree at 100% Jan!!! ;-)
I didn't know the english people used that expression...we have the same in french... " Rome ne s'est pas construit en une journée"... lol
You see, my muscles now recover more fast, at the begining of the week I had pain for 3 days...now it's ok...I go to the gym, do my muscles exercises, have pain for 1-2 hours after and in the morning I recover at 100%... all the machines are set very low , i'm a beginner...but I can increase them of 10-20 pounds each weeks if I feel that i'm able to... the more exercises I Will do, and the more good my muscles will be able to absorb the oxygen ... I tend to not breath and exhale often while I exercises, so its why I tend to have dizness... The trainer last night help me on that point... I tend to don't breath deeply... I try to take deep breath but that's not easy...
The trainer told me she was very proud of me last night, she was so nice...she said that just the fact that I go to the gym, that I see a lot of peoples that I don't know, that I do my exercises in front of them, is a BIG step in the good direction, for someone with social phobia...
I was proud if myself... Sorry if I look a lot turning into MYSELF ...but I can say that from monday to friday, my feeling about the gym change around 100%... Monday I was exhausted and I wanted a refund from the gym...now I just want to go the more often I can... YES, I have a lot of dizness on the cardio machine, I tend to feel lighthead and I focus on my heart...but each time I go there, the fear decrease and I feel more comfortable... I"m also not shy anymore in the lockerroom, even if I have to be naked in front of 10 guys...who cares... that's a lot of SMALL victory for me...each time I go there I feel stronger...stronger in my minds and my muscles also... it will do a good job for me, maybe more than every pills I try in the past...
