Slept okey. The exercising shows it‘s effect in soreness and a feeling of acidity. Today i was more slow, a little brainfogged and in worse mood than yesterday, more easily irritated by media. I think it‘s a reaction to those muscle microtraumata and thou distributed transmitters (i guess cytokines) from the thorough exercise. Just guessing. Will see tomorrow. Was still okey and try/prepare to sleep more early today.

Thanks for the update Steve. Exercise can be so helpful during tapering as long we don't overdo it. I'm sure you're monitoring yourself for any overexertion. I'm glad your sleep was okay. You're doing great! 👍
