I'd rather be sleeping

I have a new catch phrase--”I’d rather be sleeping”.  I love it, ‘cause it’s so true.  So, with that said, I decided to take some time off hardcore derby.  The time is right, as my second game of the season is this Saturday, and I won’t have another game with my team, ‘til August.  I’m going to use this time to really catch up on sleep, eat super clean, and lift super heavy.  I’ll lay out some goals soon.  I’m going to actually keep track of my eating extensively, and keep track of my waist to hip ratio, every other week (it’s better to do once a month, but I want to do it more for the blog).

This doesn’t mean I’m going to be completely absent from practice.  Only really during the week.  As is, my cortisol levels are so elevated, I’m having issues with insomnia.  I have the hardest time getting to sleep, and staying asleep.  I feel so wired at night!  No, this is not normal.  I love derby, but I love being healthy way more.  Hopefully, taking care of myself before I take care of derby means a much longer derby career.

I only have one body, so I have to take very good care of it.

  1. I saw you post on Eplifefit about this and I'm excited to see the changes it will bring. I think it's only going to be positive for you!
