Obviously this isn't my best week ever...but I started doing 2X per day in early March, so it's sensible to me to back off a bit for a week when my foot started to have issues.
I think backing off when your body needs it is a good way to avoid burn out. I have to keep reminding myself: this is a change for life. Am I willing to do this for the rest of my life?
The answer for AM workouts is a qualified yes: yes as long as I can sleep in if I really need it. And this week I've decided my body must really need it.
That said, if I still can't get up tomorrow, next week is drastic measures week...I trained myself to get up at 5 am in the first place by setting two alarms: my clock and my cell phone. If necessary, I'll go that route again.
