Had a very sluggish workout this am. Woke up and all of a sudden my allergies opened a big can of whoop ass. Shortness of breath and sinus's hit like a big dog. So, I took some Allegra-D and a couple of hits off of my albuterol inhaler and layed it down for an additional 20 minutes. So, got to the gym later than usual and energy level was low and focus was not their. Today was shoulders and arms and I must of slept wrong because my left shoulder and neck were tight and really sore.

Then had another 10 minutes to kill so I decided to hit the steam room. Felt good after coming out of it. My sinus's were clearing up and starting to feel better.
As of today, my calves are really sore. I feel tight/sore deep in each one. Taking tomorrow off to get some extra rest in the am. Next up. Chest, back and cardio on Friday.Do or do not. There is no try!

Today was an interesting day. Woke up feeling a little ran down. Stayed up late and throughout the night on Sunday evening/Monday morning with my boy who had a tooth infection. Only got around 3 hrs. sleep so I took Monday off. He got that taken care of yesterday and is doing better. Now onto this am.
Warm up

Feeling really winded at this point so, I hit the steam room for about 5 min. This relieved most of my asthmatic symptoms. Moist heat does wonders for the ole bronchioles. Tomorrow is shoulders, arms and cardio. Started my allergy meds this am so I am now taking Allegra-D, Nasacourt AQ and Advair. Hopefully these will take care of business.Last edited by icetrauma; 10-21-2008, 08:18 AM.Do or do not. There is no try!

Last 2 days have been busy. Played golf on Thurs and spent all day on Friday with the family. Was going to hit it this am but my best friend, who is going through a tough time with his gf, came over last pm and we kicked it a little and stayed up a little later than I expected. So, no gym today. Tomorrow will be chest, back and cardio. Providing I do not get the UFC fights and stay up till midnight.Do or do not. There is no try!
