X Stretch? More like........
What the....
Since my scheduling was all fouled up (As you must surely know if you happened to read my last blog post) the one thing I wanted to make sure I did during my recovery week was fit in an X-Stretch. My calves and rump were still pretty tender from all the lunges I did two days previous on Legs/Back day, so ANYTHING resembling a stretch felt like a tall, cool glass of water to...yes...my rump and calves.
This workout was just what the doctor ordered (especially after 18 holes of golf) because it wasn't too strenuous but enough to make me feel like I still accomplished something afterwards. There's something about stretching before an exercise that can get somewhat monotonous but when you have a whole workout that's geared towards doing only that and nothing but, it's a great motivator.
In other news
-The cardio and stretching has been good but I'm REALLY looking forward to getting back into the weights on Monday. When it comes down to it there's really no substitute for pushing the iron and getting your sweat on in a more caveman-like manner, and I especially can't wait to start socking back the protein and knowing it's going somewhere.
-I need to find a Yoga mat.
-My flexibility is surprising me. Reed Richards is so jeal.
