Day 16

Today was off day according to old schedule so did some stretches and believe it or not did my weights at 9.30 at night. Dont know why had been feeling low for a couple of days, seemed not going anywhere with the program , feeling heavy. Why? its just been 15 days and we havent even started training yet. Then talked myself into moving, just for 10 min, and ultimately did the whole 30 min workout.
Tomorrow LSD 4 miles.
