11-03-15 HY: Tennis + Splits + TCF.
NATIONAL HOLIDAY!!!
Had a good and busy day. Finished a lot of housework projects that have been waiting in the wings. I was planning to do a cardio workout today, but once my son got home from school (yes, he had school on a national holiday, but that normal for senior HS students in Japan), he wanted to play tennis, so we went and played for an hour. I don't think I could have handled much more than that because my Triceps and Chest are so sore. My first step into Body Beast was a really good one and I'm seeing results already through the soreness. I wasn't able to hit with the power and control like on Sunday for two reasons: 1. I was trying to get used to new strings and a new higher tension. And 2. Soreness. On my backhand and serve, my right tricep was dying. On my forehand, my right lat and peck were really feeling it. My serve got my shoulder a bit. I need to do something to balance out my left side. But it was a good session. We were aware that we only had an hour, so we sort of amped up our play. I started off with part of the Neural Reboot to loosen up which was a first, and I think that helped me loosen up faster on the court. It also was rather cold tonight so that fast warming up was necessary.
Got home and was able to get to the splits and Flow later in the evening. They were both good, and I was able to push a little more, but my ankle and knee still had some issues so I really pushed on the forward and back splits more than the straddle.
In the end, I torched a solid 900+kcals. Good day to get a lot done and stay pumped!
