Training Day Five Hundred Five

I had myself a longer cardio session than usual this morning. I really felt like taking a long walk. I think this was because today has been the only day where I've really been free from work. When having lots to do, the cardio sessions can seem like a waste of time. Thoughts like "I could be doing this or that" start intruding my mind and I want to cut things short. I mean, I'm not skipping the cardio and making it shorter than it should be. But I'm definitely not making it longer than it needs to be either. Therefore, this morning's session was a real pleasant experience. More of that please!

Quads this very morning!

# Workout Notes:
This was definitely a energy draining workout. In a sense, it was also a workout that focused on learning about my own body. Due to the lower back issues, and the preventions that they cause, I'm forced to lower the weights and focus on the way the muscles work. I guess I ask myself the question whether I can target the muscle more than I normally would at a higher weight. Judging from today's walk down the gym stairs I'd say I could!
