The soreness that comes after missing a workout is punishment enough to discourage long lapses bewteen workouts. My ass is SO SORE.

Incomplete rest. Even with usual trying to catch my breath between exercise pairings when I’m changing equipment, I was still done with this in 40-45 minutes. I could probably do it in 30 minutes flat if I had everything set up.

Considered skipping HIIT, with how fatigued my legs are. But I figured a terrible “maximal” effort is still better than no effort at all.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a ten hour shift today. And tomorrow. And Sunday.
