I told Swami I was struggling with some of the mental game that goes on with myself. Quit. Take a break. Take the day off. He said they were just Jedi mind tricks and gave me the words of wisdom from a Jedi Master. LOL. Now that is my mantra for the first 100 swings.

Cycle to @20 minutes. I purposefully tried to hold back on the bike riding side of this workout, both in time and intensity to make it an aerobic workout rather than anaerobic. Just to see how I felt on Wednesday. The past two Wednesdays were tough. I wanted to see if conserving some energy would make a difference. Just because.
