After my workout on Sunday that night my back hurt and I had a bad headache. Luckily it did not last beyond the night. Whew! Clearly I worked out too hard after not working out for so long. So today I dialed it down and was very attentive to what I was doing. I think I nailed it- meaning I don't think I'll be in pain tonight. I did 2.3 floors per minute on the StairMaster in stead of 2.7 and controlled the speed manually between levels 2-4. End result: 40 minutes, 275 cal., 87 floors. Then I did 20 minutes of floor exercises: stretching and leg and ab exercises. It is so nice to have this week off work. I have been able to sleep in which gives my body such a nice chance to recover.
