I Am Indestructible!

I feel all fixed. I've been miserable the last couple of days! I woke up Monday morning feeling like I was coming down with something. As the day went on, I felt worse. When I got home yesterday I took my temperature and had a fever. I went to bed with horrible chills and shakes. I woke up several hours later so drenched in sweat my hair was stringy. Being sick is bad enough: I had the usual fever-induced body aches. BUT I also had a high degree of training soreness from the weekend! This turned out to be a vicious combination! The cure to training soreness of course is to lift through it. And I couldn't. I found myself today damn near having trouble walking. I think I groaned every time I tried to get up from my desk chair.

I could feel myself improving throughout the day today so tonight I went ahead and worked out. All the soreness is simply GONE. I could feel it dissipating with each lift. I feel SO MUCH BETTER! I don't know what I have. I can feel that there is some congestion in my chest but it's quite minor. I haven't been severely sick in a long time. I usually fight it off quite well. We'll see this time around.

I was actually really glad that I had as much soreness as I did. It's good to know I can still shock my muscles really hard so that I might be able to see some new gains. I will start back with my trainer in a couple of weeks. I am REALLY looking forward to that!
