Taste of Cubicle-ville

This weekend I was able to accomplish A LOT of work. I thought it was a necessary thing to do to catch up with things I have been procrastinating. Everything I needed to do revolved around my pc and desk. When it was all over I found myself looking at the time with "that's impossible" expression on my face. I just sat in front of this stupid computer for almost six hours. The only breaks were to relieve my coffee irritated bladder. Right away my stomach grumpled ready for a binging. When I stood up my legs felt like they were made of old wood and rusty hinges. My neck ached from being in the forward position all that time and my lower back made these two popping noises that foreshadowed the coming trouble.

It was too hypocritically funny. I usually tell my clients over and over again not to just sit in front of the computer for more than an hour. Here I was feeling the exact reason why. The great thing is I got a lot accomplished. The bad thing is this morning's ( which is the morning after) workout went from the idea of Olympic lifts to a warmup and a bunch of drills. I simply was not ready for a real workout after abusing my body with desk work all Sunday. DEFINITELY, never doing that again.

Oh ya, one good thing is I was able to prep the first of a video series I call 3 minute drill.



In a nutshell these will be aerobic based drills that are better alternatives to mind-numbing treadmills and elipticals. Not sure what happened to my other videos, they seem a bit distorted. I'll leave that to another day when I am ready to do desk work again and next time with frequent breaks for joint and mental health.
