Hey Folks!
Great weekend! Little bit of a longer grinder yesterday, followed by a beauty “sprint” today. I know it was a tough week last week – I’ll try to ensure there are some “lighter” days sprinkled throughout the week, but it’s on you guys to remember, exercise is the architect, recovery is the contractors. If you need find you’re overly sore, or feeling run down, then make sure you’re sleeping enough, getting good quality fuel (i.e. food and drink), taking fish oil, and doing your mobility work after class. Doing some static stretching and mobility work right after training can reduce muscle soreness significantly, meaning you feel good at your next training session. Taking some magnesium (Natural Calm) will also help with your sleep, digestion and muscle recovery. Check it out!
In that vein – Kristin is doing her Performance Enhancement session at the usual times (Monday 5:30am, Tuesday 6-7pm)
