I would LOVE togetback into running - we will see
I actually am expecting a gain my 1st week back at bodypump...although last week I went 2x (sat & tue, WI on Fri) and had an okay week, but I think enough time had elapsed for muscle repair by then. I skipped the next thu & sat class, but restarted this tue & thur. The initial muscle tear & repair causes some water retention, I am giving it at least 2 weeks of 3x/week to overcome the initial muscle repair (not counting last week -that was an awful allergy week!). I am slowly stepping up my weights, feeling the soreness all over again!
Tom is starting in a few days, so not expecting great numbers anyways...oh well, the water will flush out eventually!
