For some reason I was in a very negative place training today, everything I did my head was telling me it wasn't enough, wasn't heavy enough, wasn't low enough, wasn't correct position - by the time I got to the row I very nearly walked out and left it again. I even got to the point of convincing myself if I needed to leave then that's okay and I can do the cardio tomorrow morning instead as Olympic lifting class is cancelled as Coach OC is away and Coach SG is in france competing in crossfit. It all sounded perfectly reasonable and I very nearly did walk out, but when I got to the door I stopped myself and just managed to give myself the hugest kick up the arse. I also told myself I'd get the most benefit if I did the row now after my sets, and hell come in tomorrow morning too and train again for extra credit prior to the Monday weigh in. So reminding myself I wanted to train as hard as I could for these final two weeks of the body composition, I rolled the rower outside like we used to at the rowing club (fresh air huge bonus) and got going.
Ergs and eggs = winning combination (amusingly I was imagining if I rowed hard enough I'd be warming them up enough to hatch in to a tray full of tiny chicks... but my head does like to wander in to fluffy things, not to mention I'd love my own hoard of tiny chickens)
