Today's upper body routine involved some new-to-me moves that I was a bit clumsy in doing. My arms are pretty floppy now as it's been a couple of weeks since I had a thorough arms workout -- I don't enjoy that sensation in and of itself but I can appreciate the accompanying sense of accomplishment. It means I can be assured that I pushed myself fully.

I was grumpy and resentful this morning because my sleep (which I really struggle with) was interrupted in the night. I'd had two good nights and was hoping to keep building on that, but unfortunately it wasn't meant to be. Post-exercise, I'm still tired and I know I might not be my very best self all through the long day ahead but I was able to show up, do something good for me, and sweat out some of my negativity. My energy is a little higher and my head is definitely clearer, and I did the thing in spite of unfavorable conditions.

Onward! Wishing all a fulfilling day.
