Pain Is Good?

I understand how a punching bag feels now. After the therapy I had with Aldrin, I couldn't feel anything but pain (he calls it 'soreness'). These muscles that he worked on, had been overused, abused and neglected for far too long. They were all knotted, tight and tensed. Despite the 'soreness', my knee and ankle felt lighter. I could hold myself up better. I notice that I have been slouching more and more lately but now I found out why. My muscles are all protesting against my weight apparently. After 3 sessions, I can support my body better and I slouch less. I still tense up my shoulders too much but I'm beginning to be more conscious of how my muscles hole my body up.

Apart from the tough training, I am required to jog or swim three times a week. Now, that is so unthinkable! I am running the risk of becoming obsessed with exercising and diet. How can I possibly do 2 hour gym twice a week plus 30 minutes cardio thrice a week??? I don't even see my children anymore (which might not be too bad actually)! Also, I need to watch what I eat. So, I am perpetually thinking and acting on my exercise regime! That's the road to OCD for me... I need to make this work without letting it overwhelm me...
