Instinct Day!! We're going light today!!

I call this instinct day for a very good reason.
1. I've been working graveyards for the last 4 nights.
2. If anyone knows what that feels like and how it just tortures your body and circadian rhythm. (no REM's here!!)
3.I'm trying to wake up at noon when most of you have been up for at least 4 or 5 hours.
On days like this my body is feeling like it's been put through a meatgrinder and I don't want an injury so I'm moving slowly so that I can see how my body is reacting to various moves. This is why I call this Instinctive training. (INJURIES = No TRAINING ) That doesn't make me a happy camper!!
So here's how it went!! My wife Miriam joined me today (she works nights also)

Sometimes just easing off a little will still help you move forward in your training. The body is great at giving you signals to know when you are about to injure yourself or your head just isn't in to it when your fatiqued.
But!! there is a major difference between laziness and fatique. Know the differences. Or i'll have to punish you the next time we work out!!
Have a nice day!!
