May 24, 2019, Friday - Wall Tennis + Walking + Pull-Ups.
I made it home a little early so I was able to get to the Wall early and claim the whole wall for my wife and I. We were hitting for about 15 minutes when another guy came and was waiting. Then the same guy from the previous times came and just walked in and asked if he could play on half. My wife being the nice person she is said okay, and both guys came in and started hitting on the wall. They asked for half and took two thirds. I should say tried to take two thirds. They just assumed that we would move, but at the wall, there are no reservations, it is first come first serve so we were totally within our rights to stay and keep the whole wall. Anyway, we kept half and the other guy who came second was pushed to the edge by the guy who came third and set himself right in the middle of everyone. He almost hit my wife a few times. He was incredibly in the way, but he didn't care. That led to a little non-verbal drama, but we focused on our tennis.
Today was a good day for tennis. I was feeling some of that control coming back, and hitting at a good contact point. Focusing on the ball and good form. I was able to hit hard and maintain a good rally rhythm. I didn't keep count of the strokes I hit, but it was a pretty good number. No problems with my ankle or my knee. I used the smaller supporter on my knee this time just to test it out and as I said, no problem and no pain. After we finished, to cool down, we took a walk around the park. I also stopped at a workout station to do a few sets of Pull-Ups to get in some of that work. All in all, it was a good workout.
In the end, I burned a good 1107 kcals. Glad to break passed a thousand for the first time since early in May. And only the second time since the last time I went to regular tennis practice.
