[quote=Anonymous]I need to get better about this. I have always done high intensity workouts. Once I am at the gym I get caught up and push hard. But then my muscles are either so sore (if I did weights) or my lower back and hips ache (if I do cardio) so much that I don't want to do anything for a couple days after. I was a D1 athlete and that mentality that every workout should be super hard is one I have had a hard time letting go of. It's like my brain goes back into "training mode" once I have gotten started. In my 20s and even part of my 30s I could do hard workouts 5-6 days per week, but it's simply not possible at 40. It's good to hear people who work out 6 days a week say that some of those days are lighter things like yoga or walking. Sometimes people here just say "I work out 6 days a week" with no explanation, and it makes me wonder what's wrong with my body that I can't do that. But I'm guessing it's a slim minority doing hard workouts that often at 40+.[/quote]
