I finally gave blood
I finally gave blood on Saturday, and I’ve felt drained ever since. I had a shitty workout last night. I had no energy, and I felt sore – as if I had ran every day for a week straight. It was rough. And then, I didn’t have the energy to do much upper body exercises like I always do on Mondays.
I have to figure out a way to be able to give blood and recover more quickly. Maybe if I change my diet for the few days after I give blood, that will help. Perhaps some stretching, or some mild exercising over the weekend could help too. I’m considering asking Dr. Zorba for advice.
I don’t like feeling weak like that. Thankfully, it only lasts about a week before I’m back to normal.
