I think that may be part of it. My legs were aching last week. Between all my hunting and running I've been busy. It's tough to convince myself to take days off from work outs. It's just hard wired like taking a shower or brushing my teeth at this point.
i'm the same way! Feel like i'm missing out or a lazy a#$. It will do your body good!!
My favorite teacher and philoshoper Jim Rohn always says, "The same wind blows on us all, it's the set of the sail.........."
Do you know where you're going or where you want to end up?
Sit down an write down a list of goals and spell out your philosophy. Short term and long term. Give yourself timelines to meet your goals and break them down into categories.
Some of mine for example:
Personal ----Invest life into life through sharing, Improve relationships with the right people, Continous education throughout life
Health ----Run a 10k, Fix my nose, Stay under 175lbs and fit for life
Financial ----Become a millionaire, Retire by 55, Bi-weekly mortgage payments
Business ----Educate myself to become a better leader, Track my business more accurately and adapt constantly, Develop a business model
We are programmed to need that carrot out in front of our nose to keep us motivated. You have to continually review your goals and philosophy and as you check things off the list, you must make new to grow.
I started keeping a journal about two months ago. I write down those great thoughts and days to reflect on along with some bad. You have to study your own life. You can't rely on your own memory.
If you don't have the knowledge or skills, read a book or take a class.

Thought I would check in with an update. I mentioned last week that I was getting a physical this week. Well blood results are in. I don't have a single measurement identified as risky. Every single thing they measured was in the normal range or good.
Specific to cholesterol, I have had high triglycerides and low HDL (good cholesterol) before and while I was able to lower my triglycerides last year my good cholesterol was still 37 which is high risk. Anything below 40 is considered very bad. Well as of Monday is has jumped up to 55 which is good though over 60 is ideal.
Since June 24th my weight is down 33 lbs. Since the start of P90X on 9/10 I've dropped my body fat to under 15%.
Still have 30 days to go on this round of P90X too!
That a boy, I should have my blood work in by next week and I'll post it up as well. I'd post a picture of my physique but I don't want anybody going limp wristed on me around this place.
How about blood pressure?
Bad cholesterol?
