Stupid ab muscle

STRENGTH: 52 mins of Chest & Back, had to skip the abs

Today I'm just not feeling right. It's like I'm in a fog, or underwater. I can't focus and I feel like I want to go home and take a nap, except I'm too tired to walk out to the truck.

My plans for today were to P90X then swim, but I backed off and just did the strength training. The Chest & Back felt good but I really wish I had a pull up bar--I tested JG's and found I could barely do 2 pull-ups! But a real downer was the return of the pained lower ab muscle. It seems that pushups are irritating it, not the crunches like I first thought. So while I was able to do most of the pushups (some hurt more than others, depending on the form) it still suffered.

But I am happy to report that my pushup numbers are improving over my first week! This is the 3rd run through the C&B DVD. Next week I get a different schedule.

I did some thinking and reviewing of my training schedule, and called up the numerics for last week. 12hrs of training, when I'm not really training for anything! Taking the day off from the swim might be what I need to catch up on fatigue.
