A rest day from exercise!

Good Morning. Hope you are all well!

Thought I would do a quick post about how I feel today – I started using heavier dumbbells in one of my exercises yesterday, and boy can I feel it today!

I can feel it right across my shoulders, and my lower back, it’s not a bad feeling, just achy and not quite comfortable. As I’m new to exercising, even though I don’t feel these are bad feelings, I’m going to not do my usual three routines tonight. That way, I can give my body a chance to relax and repair. Hopefully I’ll be able to go for a decent walk this evening instead.

As of tomorrow, back to the lighter dumbbells!

Another blogger (fitambitiousblonde) has written a fantastic blog post about rest days, going into some details as well. Hopefully I’ll be able to share that with you later.

Teddy-bye for now.
