5-21-16 HY: Splits + TCF + Foam Rolling.
Today was supposed to be an off day, but since I missed doing my Splits training yesterday because of time, I had to get it in today. Two days off in a row would be disastrous to my progress in my splits and flexibility, so it is ON today.
It is always more difficult to do the splits cold, meaning without a workout before hand, but I think I have a good regime of dynamic stretches and quick warm up moves that loosen my muscles as much as possible outside of a regular workout beforehand. It did take a little longer to hit my mark, but I hit it and pushed it a bit. So I was satisfied with my work today. I still did the Flow and tested my knee by putting a little more weight on it, and it did tweak a little, but not as much as it did, so it is getting better. Just a little more babying for a week or so.
I also had a little tightness in my lower back, probably from the Friday workout, so Foam Rolling was on the menu for today. It was nice to just roll, be in pain, and watch STRONG. It was a good combination.
But it is back to regularly scheduled programing from tomorrow. I've got a big week coming up, so I'm excited and a little nervous. I hope I'll be able to hold up.
No HRM today, so just leaning into the stretch and roller.
