I think I went too hard on the exercising. I very quickly found jogging to be much easier to work into my day. Or rather, I was more inclined to perform an activity that I had already done successfully. The other exercises I tried were fine, but without a proper mat and some more appropriate work out clothes they were difficult to perform.
So since the start of the challenge, I have just been running. Up until today, at least. I had been jogging for 7 or 8 days and had spent the day before biking for almost two hours. My muscles were sore to the point of extreme stiffness. I'm not sure, but it felt as though my muscles were in need of a break. Or rather, they forced one on me. They simply refused to cooperate, and I couldn't jog.
So I merely made sure not to overstrain anything so I could prepare for the next day, and to stretch a couple of times to keep nice and limber. Although today was not an exercise day, I have perhaps learned it is not always possible to go as hard as I can for everything.
