Comment: yikes. I thought my left shoulder was the problem since that is where I've had pain but the right one was weak compared to the left. And prone to cramping up.

Static Stretches

[UConnJulie]

Any easier the second time around?

[LisaS]

some yes, some no.
Lunges were better. Crab stance - harder on my back and harder to convince my feet that they could actually lift up. Squat drill was still killer on the ankles by the end.

Tried the ankle drill barefoot. That's hard on the foot. Maybe with an incline plane rather than just up on a block.

[UConnJulie]

Yea ... I can't stretch my calves barefoot (like the stair stretch) ... hurts my feet too much! But it might work on an incline versus a 2x4.

[LisaS]

not that I have an incline just lying about the house - but I'll be using shoes the next time.

[UConnJulie]

Really? Why not?

[LisaS]

There's this place where the sidewalk is cutout for wheeled access and on the sides of it the curb to it is a little incline - don't think I haven't thought about wandering down there barefoot to give it a try

[UConnJulie]

Ha!!! Probably better to just put shoes on ...

I'm generally a pretty skin guy and I don't see how the murder rate doesn't go up in your state living on that low of calories.

[LisaS]

apparently we have moved to non sequitur-ville ??

[Aoife]

I'm sure he's just helping you out. Now that you're posting in your log, we're worried it might get filled with workouts.

It's just that sort of caring person that's got Jill's log where it is today.

[LisaS]

I'm just happy to know that Gabe now sees him self as "a pretty skin guy" - scars and all.

OK so I should have quoted. Some times living in my own world is more interesting than others.

It's nice to that I can still get the conversation started. What's harder for me is that I end up talking to the same three people over 4 different logs and trying to keep that conversation straight.

[UConnJulie]

Doh!

OK ... so I'm still clueless ... did Lisa post her low calorie levels somewhere?
