You can’t really tell by the picture, but I’ve been working out a lot recently. In fact, I’ve gone to the gym almost every weekday for the past four weeks. I’m starting to see a bit of physical change, but there are some crazy side effects I was not expecting. Monday night when I got home I basically crashed on the couch around 6:30 and was in and out of sleep until my wife said I was completely knocked out by about 9:30. Normally I would get up about 5:30 and start the day but I did not wake up until 9:00 AM when my dog licked my face. My wife had gotten up, taken the boys to school, taken my nephew to school and was almost home by the time I got out of the bed and started getting ready for work. I don’t think I’ve ever slept that long in my life. But I feel better. I’ve got to go have a physical done to make sure my workout is not killing me slowly (which I know it is) and I spoke with a good friend who used to be a personal trainer who gave me some good advice about the timing of my eating habits.
So the moral of the story is, don’t exercise. And if you do, make sure you are giving your body plenty of energy to go the day or you’ll end up crashing like I did - which, by the way, I thought was really nice.
