Yeah, so Saturday night, I laid down to go to sleep, and…sleep just didn’t come. I didn’t look at the phone. I don’t remember doing much of anything. But the next thing I knew it was 5:30.
After meditating in the morning, I finally got some sleep from about 7:30 to 9:30. Then I got up because my wife got up.
I spent the whole day reading and commenting on reports for work. I was kind of amazed that I did that with little sleep. That would usually make it hard to concentrate and I’d have expected the words to make me feel tired. But it was working so I didn’t look the gift-horse in the mouth.
For dinner, I walked over to a restaurant to buy food for myself, wife, and son. They said it would take 25 minutes, so I walked over to the nearby park.
I’ve had a busy past two weeks and I haven’t been to do pull-ups in around 2 weeks. This felt like a little gifted opportunity. I figured I could get in 2 sets if I used a very brief rest in between.
I did 16 pull-ups on the first set. The last one or two were more half pull-ups, but I’m counting it anyway.
Then I just took a break for about 2 minutes. Did 5 or 6 more pullups and went to pick up the food.
When it comes to working out, my body really likes longer rest and recovery breaks. I always forget that. I usually like to have a regular routine, and I label that ‘discipline’. But when something happens to disrupt the routine, and I have to skip a week, I usually find that my body grows more during that time. Interesting.
Anyway. That was Sunday.
Got up today ready to knock out the rest of those reports, but then had to run two impromptu small meetings. So, it’s after lunch now, I haven’t eaten. And I’m only now getting ready for those reports. Will he make it? You, the viewer, get to decide!
