PUSH IT!

They were right! The trainers at American Family Fitness told me that when you're sore, don't go easy - push it...to a point. The family did the whole work out on Saturday, but I kept away from the "Legs" portion of the workout. Adwella told me that if I kept it light, that it would help and I'd recuperate faster - he was right. I thought on Sunday my legs would turn to noodles, but turns out they didn't hurt as much as the day before.
My Son and I went back into the steam room. The front desk apologized and said that it's a club rule that everyone wear some type of cover up. No one is allowed in there nude. I told her I'd come get her if I encountered that again. I also said it was no big deal, I've been in a men's locker room before and I thought it was funny. I told her that they may attract new members that are Star Wars fans...having a Wookie walking around the steam room.
Monday is the day I start pushing myself hard so I can make sure I'm ready for the Marine Corps Half Marathon in May. I need to be in shape for this because I have people cheering me on, donating money to T.A.P.S. at the end of the race IF I finish. So wish me luck!

Tip; If you work in an office or are seated most of the day, take a stretch break. Make sure to stretch your arms in every direction, your back, neck, legs, buns, ets. Slowly stretch each side for 3-5 seconds till you feel a tender pull - not pain. When your done, take 60 seconds to breath deeply focusing on something positive as you clear your mind. Breath in through your nose and out of your mouth slowly.
