10-04-17 (Wednesday) Tennis.
Today, I was planning to take a take a Mid-week recovery day and do some yoga, or Mobility and Recovery. But then I realized I didn't have my night class, so I decided to go to my new club's mid-week practice session. It was at a place I had never played tennis at before so I left early and got there early enough to get in some extra warming up. The evening's menu was pretty much the same as Sunday's, but there wasn't time for a regular match. I was dressed for cooler conditions, but it turns out that the courts were indoor, so I was hot. I sweat a lot, but I didn't have time to get a drink, only between drill sets. I got to practice all the facets of my game: Stoke, volley, serve, and doubles points. With the early warm up, and the cool down with all the other clean up duties of the last group on the courts, it was all about three hours. Great workout!
In the end, I torched over 1800kcals. When I got home, again, my hip flexors were aching along with the rest of my legs. My right shoulder was a little tender also, but I need that to get used to the serving motion. On my way back.
