24 Jan 2013-Was there ever any question

I woke up sluggish and some how ended up running late which makes me ornery, i don't like wasting time. Especially Thursday morning where work has me on a completely stupid schedule. But i don't need to get into that. Today is active recovery so the main plan for battle today was to get THE DAILY 30 completed, neck work, and try out the knee with FUCKING lunges again. Yes FUCKING lunges. I keep bitching and moaning about them because they are up and down. Everything else is progressing at some rate in some form or fashion. I will be putting my PT to task on Friday. I wanted this sorted out. If at the very least i want to know how to deal with it on my own.

The Daily 30 - Completed  

Oh and since it is 
Thursday 
(thanks for reminding me Harry Selkow)

Trap /Shrug Machine 4 x 15 x 70lbs
Super setted with
Neck Crunch 4 x 15

Tri-super-set
Orange Band Pressdowns 4 x 30
Black band Facepulls 4 x 30
Red Band Pull-a-parts 4 x 30


ADduction /ABduction 1 x 40 /40 x 85 /190
Lunges 1 x `10  (Doing the reps is fine, sorta, but getting out of the Lunge position simply fucking sucks)
Calf Raises 1 x 20
Rev Calf Raises 1 x 20

The Daily 30 i did pretty damn fast and with minimal sets to get to the required reps. The Tri Set of band work i did not rest, just kept rotating. The calf work, i ran out of time due to the odd work schedule. I have decided that i will have to start returning a few nights a week to get spin bike time. 

Just in case you don't know how to tread water.
 (expect more of the PSA's)
Afternoon Session Pool Rehab

10 min Flutter kicks with board
10 min Water running with Aqua Db's (deep end)
10 min Running in the Shallow end doing laps

The Addition of the actual running in the pool eased my troubled mind about the FUCKING lunges. It felt good to breathe hard and be able to push myself. The Water running (Deep end) felt like i was able to stretch my legs, hips and ankles. The Water Running (shallow end) allowed me to see how hard i could push. Also being in water neck deep and pumping my arms and legs like a sprinter was fun. 

I will do the Pink Heat Wrap treatment again tonight at bed time. The plan for tomorrow morning is going to going to be intense. 

Keep Moving forward, Keep Getting Strong(er)
