1-18-17 HY: P90X2 - Cold Start + P90X3 - X3 Yoga + TCF + Splits.
This is my recovery day, and I also sort of had a time crunch issue because I over slept a bit and had to rush some to get my workout in in the morning.
It is getting much colder recently so I decided to do a little warm up before the main routine. I felt really tight and it has been a while since I did yoga so I wanted to give myself my best chance of doing well. Cold Start is a great full body warm up, and I got a nice film of sweat on with a few drops around my forehead. But best of all, I felt a lot looser which helped me feel ready for the up coming yoga.
It started out well, and I felt like I was back in it. I was a little nervous about the Half Moon, but actually, I did it pretty well. I didn't have as bad the balance issues I was expecting, so I was happy. Reverse Half Moon, also a surprise. The Wrap, I was able to grab my hands and hold the pose, again, happy and satisfied. My nemesis move, Extended Leg with Toe Bind. Better than expected. I was able to get my leg to the side and keep it there to the end on my right side. I fell out of it once on the left, but I was happy to have been able to hold it for as long as I did before falling out. Finished strong.
I took the time to do my Flow right after the yoga so it ended up being like my recovery trifecta: Cold Start/Yoga/Flow. Felt really good, and I was breathing well through out.
I did the splits in the evening after work. I had the night class tonight, so it was late as well. But I was able to keep it going and push low.
In the end (of the morning session), I burned a nice 323kcals. Felt really good and loose all day.
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!
