This Past Week

Am I back to normal?

Not completely sure...  but, I think that I am getting there...

This past week, I was at the gym 4 days out of 7 where I exercised on Monday and Tuesday, took Wednesday off, and was back at the gym on Thursday and Friday.  Those 4 days were spent riding a stationary bike for 30 minutes, walking on a treadmill for 20 minutes, and using strength machines that focused on my upper and lower back, and shoulders but in so doing keep the weighs down and the reps low.

I want the weights down and the reps low because I want to TONE not BUILD muscles. The problem with building muscles is that in order to build muscle, you have to rip/tear those muscles so that they can enlarge.  In order to keep that muscle from turning into fat later on is to keep on lifting weights...  and, as one ages, one slows down, and muscles turn to fat...  and, fat is difficult to remove as one ages.

My fatigue is no longer in the morning or in the afternoon but has shifted to the late afternoon or early evening what while it is not severe, it is still there and I have to concentrate more or less to keep me from closing my eyes and taking a quick nap.
