10-17-16 HY: Tennis + Splits + TCF.
Second Tennis day in a row! But this one was scheduled, so just getting back to the normal schedule. The gym was a little cooler than before, but still very warm and humid. I forgot my head band and wrist band so sweat was dripping into my eyes almost the whole time. I kept wiping my face and forehead with my shirt, but that started to hurt after a while. The tennis was good. Hard hitting and intense. Hit some really good shots and was beaten by some really good shots. We've been playing each other for several years now and we know the game, so playing to win is getting tricky. But I'm still able to take home the "W". Score today was 6-4, 6-3. Body was still sore, and plus, I did something to my knee again, so I had to run carefully. But not much of an issue until I got home. Later in the evening, it got painful with each step so I put on my strap brace and that solved the pain problem.
I almost didn't do my stretch because of my knee, but I decided just to give it a try and then stop if the knee felt weird. Fortunately, not weirdness. Knee felt good through the whole routine and even through the Flow. I had a good session and the stretch was awesome. I have settled on another plateau which I must push past in due time.
In the end, the tennis burned a nice 950+kcals. A little over half the time of yesterday's session, but like 90+% of the calories burned. Much more intense today. Awesome!
