Holy shit, this topic takes me way back. I'm going to gym, although I do weightlifting 3 days a week, I basically run for 4km's every single day except sunday, and that's only because the place is closed. I also don't give much mind for stretching before the run, because the run itself is a part of stretching for the weight lifting that comes afterwards, for me. (I also do actual stretches for weight lifting when I'm done running too)
I wonder if I'm doing anything wrong. I had to take a break for two weeks because of covid until last weekend, this week I resumed again. On top of everything, I have a very hard restriction on carbohydrates that I've put for myself, I only eat a small olive filled pastry as breakfast, drink some fresh orange juice at lunch, and after the gym, I eat the only single meal in a day which is comprised of salad and chicken for the most days.
For the first time today, I felt like I was under ketosis. Even though my body had energy to move, my brain basically stopped working. I was having a hard time trying to form sentences in my native language. And there was a burning feeling in my pulsating brain. I hope it doesn't turn into something serious like glucose deficiency induced seizure lmao.
But I have to power through, there's no way to melt this protruding gut otherwise. And it only gets harder with years too. I should be getting ketones from the burned fat into my brain.
