I'm not healthy, I guess.
Went to the gym with David again last night. It was humbling. I'm not nearly as strong as I once was. And my endurance is pathetic.
I'm one big muscle cramp today. My right elbow and my lower abs are two big knots. Sitting up is hard. This morning when I tried to sit up out of bed I almost couldn't move. I don't think I've ever felt quite like that, to be honest. I've always had this inner belief that I was in better shape than most.
It's a good thing I didn't try out for the academy this summer. I'd have embarassed myself.
So if I keep this up, will it get easier? It wasn't so hard when I was 19. Back then I could load trucks for 5 hours at UPS, get 6 hours of sleep, and work out in the gym the next morning. I was almost never sore.
I'm only 24. I'm wondering how 30 will be ... that's scary. I've got a new respect for my dad, then.
