Sly

Cardio on the Sly. 

I loved Sandi’s post yesterday. It came at just the right time for me. I had actually just completed writing a list of pro’s and con’s to doing cardio on the sly to compensate for my flub last Thursday. 

 Ultimately I didn’t feel comfortable sneaking in the penance of forty-five minute sessions on the Stairmaster because I do (believe it or not) have a bit of a conscience. Funny how that works, guilt for penance…. Now that’s self flagellation at it’s finest. 

However…  And there is always a however; I would be able to sleep at night knowing that I was implementing a new five mile per day power walking program for my dog, Fluffy. Get what I am saying? Fool Erik and feel guilty, fool myself and rest easy. 

Well after reading Sandi’s post I decided to do what I know is best and simply to accept the natural consequences of my actions: delayed progress. A true test of patience. With this plan, I build my physique only as quickly as I build my character. A win-win situation for big me and little me.

The only loser here is Fluffy. Hmm….
