ONE HOUR = DAY OFF?

Perhaps only in the twisted world that I inhabit could a one hour workout be considered a day off from exercise. As I have explained, my need to exercise each day, is more mental than physical. I know that there would be benefits from taking at least one day off per week. I know a lot of things. Like many human beings, knowledge about what is best for me does not control what I do. In my experience on Earth, human beings are not always rational. Want proof? This is easy.  Here are three examples to prove that human being are not always rational, in no particular order.

1. Human Beings smoke cigarettes. That is irrational.
2. Human Beings use heroin, crack, and a myriad of other dangerous drugs. That is very irrational.
3. Human Beings support Bernie Sanders for President. That is just crazy.

Back to my point...I do not always behave rationally. This should come as no surprise to anyone, as anyone who can balloon up to 309 lbs does not do that with rationality ruling the day. Although my current weight is 220 lbs, my predilection for irrationality has not abandoned me. Yesterday was 'day off' of sorts.... I did utilize my home elliptical machine (but only for 45 minutes) and I augmented that with a quick 24 minutes on the treadmill. Compared to some of my more vigorous workouts, this one hour did seem like a day off...
