Still riding a great mental wave from the John Assaraf full day seminar I attended on Tuesday. I am actually a sponsor of the event so I had a chance to meet John and have my picture taken with him. Check it out.
The past 2 days have been great and very productive. I have been working hard with my coaching clients and getting prepared for some very exciting upcoming speaking exngagements. Some excellent opportunities to grow my business to new levels that I was only dreaming about less than a year ago.
During some days of this challenge, I have actually felt some frustration because I assumed I would get into a flow and really be invigorated by the process. The reality is, its a 90 "Challenge" and it would not be a life changing experience if the entire process was a breeze. The reason I raise this issue is that the past few days since the Assaraf event, I have been in the flow and feeling the vibes that I had hoped for. My goal is to keep these vibes going as long as humanly possible and I am going to do that through the implementation of very specific exercises and instructions that John shared with the audience on Tuesday. In fact, I plan to do a 90 day Mental Challenge based on some of the strategies that he shared. Fascinating stuff that I plan to write on in the near future!
In terms of fitness, Day 52 (Wednesday) was a tough workout. My plan was to do a heavy arm weight lifting session followed by high impact cardio on the stepper. During the weight lifting, I tweaked my forearm which has been hurting me for months. I was able to get through 2 full sets and work the muscle quite well but I had to cut out the remaining exercises. Then, I hopped on the stepper and could not finish that routine as my knee was really hurting me. I have no idea what happened but it was to the point that I had to discontinue.
I came home from the workout and iced the knee thoroughly. I woke up this morning and the majority of the pain was gone. I was careful not to run up the stairs too quickly or run around with my son without first limbering up. By the time Thursday night basketball was on, I was good to go. Unfortunately, I did not play well tonight but I can't blame it on the knee. I chalk it up to an off night. I choose to focus on the positive which is the fact that I played and got an excellent cardio workout, and hada great time, in the process!
