10-12-16 HY: P90X2 - Recovery + Mobility + Splits + TCF.

Morning shake and workout today.  Legs were really feeling the results of two straight leg days, resistance then plyo.  Probably not the best combo, but I got through it.  Normally, I'd like to spread out leg days, but I didn't want to mess with the schedule again, so I left it as is.

I went through the moves to start, but this time, I totally doubled all the Foam Rolling areas.  Lower right leg, Upper right leg, Inner right leg, upper right body, and the left side.  It was so great to just sit on the hot spot and wait for the release.  A few times, I didn't get the release, but it was kneaded out some, so I'll have to go back and get it to release.  Today though, I really hit my shin area.  Started to feel some tightening a few days ago, so I wanted to really roll it out today.  It felt so awesome.  As for the stretching part after the foam rolling, I didn't feel as flexible as I thought I'd be.  Part of the reason is that I was feeling pretty sore.  So I pushed as much as my threshold of pain would allow.

Can anyone tell me if there is a correlation between soreness and flexibility.  Does soreness reduce flexibility?

Splits and Flow had to be done in the evening after work, and they were good.  Splits were still a little sore, but I pushed as much as I could.

In the end, I only burned just under 250kcals, but the benefits were more than just burning calories.  This was so necessary.
