I've been a bit lazy, and in retrospect I'm now thinking it has to be hydration. Thanks bud, you might just have given me the lead I need to get back on track.
So much to learn and keep track of
Could also be your body is just in need of a little break after the pounding you've been giving it. You can't go hammer and tongs for months on end without your body getting upset. I'm using our christmas break to reset the guages and take the intensity out of training.
