10 x 100metre Farmers carry with 48 kg in each hand
100 kettlebell swings 16 kg
100 Front squats 50kg
10 x 100 metre lunge with overhead 15kg
after that I had sweated out every drop of moisture in my body so had none left for tears and had mortified the flesh enough to assuage my guilt. Who says overtraining is a bad thing?
Had a fairly peaceful dy after that. Actually managed to eat solid food. Had a really difficult meeting and was able to make some truly horrible decisions calmly and rationally.
going to go for a slow 10k with dog this evening and hopefully may even get some sleep.

You sound as if you are literally beating yourself up. Cut yourself some slack, young man, whatever happened is certainly not all your fault and even if it was, you must learn to forgive. Tears are also healing. But it's probably too early and if physical exercise is your way of dealing with it, then that's how it is. Sleep well, tough guy.
Sorry it's so bad for you right now. Seems like your way of dealing with it is taking on exercising for the whole forum! As Iben says be careful, last thing you need is the *whisper it* ic
Hope you come out of all this stuff smelling of roses very soon.
aargh! You cannot be serious. Don't know what has happened in your life and you know how best to cope with it but take care and don't crock yourself up please. Pretty please?
Sometimes it helps to let off steam through exercise. You are one of the forum members on here who know their limits, I hope it helps with whatever is going on. You know we could only dream of those sort of reps with that sort of weight. Good luck.
Sorry Rig - but it pains me to have to tell you that none of us will get out of this alive!!!! However -- I feel much better now that I have given up all hope!!
Sometimes fighting every step is the best plan but sometimes you just have to give in and let some time pass and trust your inner strength to carry you through - don't beat yourself up when you get to that point, all part of healing. Most of all look after yourself. Everyone on here is rooting for you.
Hang in there Rig.... We are all here to keep you going and hold you up. You are so strong in so many ways.... And impressive too, that lot makes me feel feint!!!💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Lesser soles would turn to drink so I think you've chosen the least harmful route to stress relief and only you know what your body can take. Just log on and unload when you feel able to, we are all here to support each other, whatever the need. Sending a virtual hug your way, you sound like you need it from a distance!
And yes, I know it should be souls, but soles seemed more appropriate on a running forum!
Was thinking of you twice today Rig: Went for a run this morning and got a bit tired and thought "now if I did lots of squats like Rig advise, I would be able to kick my legs up and forward a lot more and I would not be tired. Then while trying to climb back into my backyard I had to pull myself up by the arms. I thought if I was doing more squats, like Rig, I could just jump up and in....
It looks like you have found a solution for dealing with what life throws at you. Excercises clear the mind they say.
Hey Rignold , you gotta do what you gotta do , you will come out the other side ..
I have just read your previous post and now understand your reaction... but beating yourself into the ground won't make things any better, be careful. Run, lift and squat but please be kind to yourself. Sometimes time out and quiet are part of the process too., and funnily enough that thinking time is the last thing we want to do but the first thing that's necessary to get back on our feet after a tough time. Take care.
Oh Rig, I'm not sure what to say, I guess nothing will take away whatever pain your suffering. Yes, as PP says whatever gets you through....I would probably be the same, but on a much smaller scale. We're all thinking of you, cyber hugs coming your way xxx
Oh Rig, that's some post. Hope your life is a little more settled now. Whatever the cause of your pain, i hope you're feeling a little calmer now. You have friends on here who wish you well and who hope you find a way through your troubles. Take care m'dear x
