Hello! How’s it going? Yesterday I had what felt like a good workout at the gym. But I feel like I don’t know for sure if I got in a good workout until the next day… you know when you open your eyes and slide outta bed and BOOM. You think to yourself “shit I am sore, this is gonna be rough” as you walk to the bathroom.
I kind of love that feeling or should I say, pain. The pain of a good workout that makes you sore is like some kind of sick reward, right? I mean I don’t want to waste my time working out – I want to know it’s working. And the results on the scale or in the mirror take a while to show. So that little burn in your quads or butt or triceps – that’s what tells ya what you did yesterday woke up your muscles and said, “Hey! Let’s get it together!!”
Or is that just me?
This morning I am a tiny bit sore in my hamstrings. I want to be sore more places next time

I drove to Redlands to visit my favorite tiny person today.
In this pictures above picture her kinda giving me this vibe…
But I bribed her with stickers and my willingness to just do whatever she wanted so I think we’re cool now.
Turns out she’s kinda a creeper and just wanted to stare at some guy doing laps in the pool for 15 minutes. Seriously. But I’m not here to judge so we hung out and made the guy super uncomfortable and just relaxed by the pool (outside the fence).
Speaking of creepers… I am one. And Vegas is not feeling my wrist weight situation.

Question: How do you measure if your workout is ‘good enough’ or working??
Do you like being sore? Do you hate it?
