Nov 17 to 23

 


A week like the others, with a bit more of a "Ohmylawd" kind of twist. The ankle kept taking the fun out of everything, so I went to get it looked at. Got two ideas back, followed up with strong anti-inflammatories. That did the trick. Yeah, I know what that means. 

As a result, not a lot of walking this week, no hiking, just two swims. I enjoyed the swims, but need to make them more often. Also got some really stupid news from the tax people here in Canada. Why they keep looking back at tax returns from years ago, I'll never be sure. So it goes. Money still makes me blue.

I got two swims in this week, needed a third, but did a garage stretch instead. Also, why did I put my hand up to help with PD at the end of the month? I'm sitting here, just a shaking my head, dude.

Anyway, I've got that, marking and prepping two new things going on at the moment. Lots of grunt work and lots of brain sucking at the moment. I know what I need to get done and we will do it. 

At least the morning schedule is staying the pace:

8-10 minutes mobility - cat/cow, baby pose, push ups, downward dog to cobra pose, WGS, 90/90, thread the needle and pigeon stretch. Push ups. Doing this as a "flow", find it a good way to start this.

10-12 minutes of ab work - Swimming kicks, BJJ leg pummelling, putting on socks stretches and rotations, scorpion stretch, dead bugs, hydrant stretches, hollow ab hold, clamshell and reverse clamshell stretches ... and push ups. 

10-12 minutes of 35 lb db floor presses, banded bicep curls, banded overhead presses, standing hip CARS

I have the 50 lb dbs just out of reach on the garage floor, but might be shifting to those shortly.
