I was crushed for a good ten minutes, looking blankly at the computer screen, and muttered under my breath 'noooooo'. I say ten minutes, because then I actually re read the email, yes I was still demoted. But my pt suggested I go to the beginner-esque one - it's kind of a prep one to the camp boot i've been going too.
Mainly because I feel that you will get more from that intensity, at this stage....and I feel it's the right direction for your improving fitness levels at this stage.
It was a very gentle email, as crushed as I was, my pt is awesome, and I'll still be seeing them whilst I go to the other camp boot (little boot?). Plus I hope to go back into camp boot when it runs again during this year sometime and CRUSH them ;-)
I think the demotion may do more good than I will care to admit at this point.
-I'm fitter than I've ever been, but I'm not fast, at all. If I had less weight to carry about, shit people, I would be fast.
-Must loose fat in order to become fast. Period.
-I want to become fast.
-It's not the same camp boot as when I started - there is nothing wrong with that at all, but it keeps building upon the previous sessions, and I'm not fast enough to keep up, even though I give 150%.
-Snacking after dinner won't happen anymore, little boot is around 530pm or so, it'll be dinner and bed folks.
- No more 5am starts - kind of...I have to change my swimming squad around now, and that will mean at least one early start a week.
Not so cool stuff
-I'm going to have to have lunch later, nooo! Noon and I'm ready, that's going to be fun.
-I really don't like being demoted, I almost cried at my desk and work! Thanks to ANNE for twittering me back to the land of common sense :-)
-I liked the early morning starts.
-What do I say when people ask why I'm not doing camp boot this time around?
-It's twice a week, not three.
At lunch I went and got a salad (yeah two lunches out this week already!) and a journal, so I can start writing down some things just for me and maybe for you guys later.
