frustrated!

So I decided to step up my workout routine this week and start running 2x a day on my running days. Monday was great! Last night instead of running I did the p90x plyo. I'm not GOOD at it by any stretch of the imagination, but I can get through. During one of the many jumping moves my calf muscle just SPASMED. I stretched it out and took it a little easy for the rest of the workout. This morning I got up and did my 2.74 miles and felt great...but now the DOMS is starting to set in, plus my calf is giving me some grief. I'm thinking I should NOT do another run tonight...but I really wanted to, and if I don't I'm going to feel like a lazy bum.

You don't want to injure yourself though. Then you'll be out for even longer. take the night off and rest.

Dont do it! You need to rest. It is good for your body to rest. You will over do it and then you wont be able to do any excersise at all! Moderation! Everything in moderation doll! : )

Your body is trying to tell you it needs a rest. Listen to it. Voice of experience here. Even though I felt guilty, I had to "not workout" to prevent greater damage. No regrets.

Take tonight off. You will feel better tomorrow.

RICE
Rest
Ice

Rest it, ice it a bit, let it heal.
