Week 3, Day 3. T25-Alpha: Lower Focus + Tai Cheng: Neural Reboot P1 + Sequence 1.
TWO IN A ROW!!! Another hurdle cleared. Felt good today, but I was worried about those calf hops. As expected, my arches and calves were killing me, but not as early as the last time. The real pain came when Shaun T was counting down, "Four, three, two, ONE!" I was so glad when he said one, but I only had a couple seconds before the next move but either way, it was less painful than the calf hops. My quads really felt it today. I was trying to focus more on form and range of motion as opposed to just getting through the workout. I tried to keep my squats and lunges as low as possible. That lunge progression was a killer today. I had to get a little shallow in my stance a couple times, but held it on the hold. Great workout today! Burned just under 300kcals in 25 minutes.
Tai Cheng today was good. I'm getting very used to the moves and I was able to keep my head and spine up and straight a little more than yesterday. Still a few kinks, but getting better. Flow felt good today. Tried to pay more attention to my breathing today, too. I haven't been careful and my breathing has slipped a bit. Especially today, the foam rolling on the lower legs was awesome! Very much needed!
Very happy with today's workout. Burned over 600kcals including my cool down!
Welcome to the new direction for this blog. In it, I will post my experiences and thoughts related to the sport of Pickleball and my efforts to grow Pickleball in the Prefecture of Kagoshima located in the southernmost tip of mainland Japan. I hope to post pictures and videos of the activities and events that are held in Kagoshima. And one day, hopefully, you will come and play some Pickleball with us! Please comment if you visit!
